For 45+ years, Gallery 4Culture has been exhibiting innovative artists and art forms in solo and small-group shows. Today, we’re thrilled to announce the artists who will have exhibitions in the coming season. Check them out below!

Congratulations to our 2025–2026 artists, and thank you to our panelists—Judy Avitia-Gonzalez, Erin Elyse Burns, Em Chan, and Michael Hong—for their time and effort in reviewing and selecting six King County-based artists and artist teams.

4Culture would also like to thank all 119 gallery applicants for their interest in exhibiting with us and the panel for their diligence in making these selections. The next Gallery 4Culture season application cycle will open early November with a deadline of December 11, 2025.

Additional 1^st Thursday: August 6, 6-8pm

A tribute to the things that irk, confuse, or amuse, Reilly Jensen’s large-scale soft sculptures—hand-embroidered, machine-stitched, and adorned with rusted, discarded objects—explore the unsettling realization that our parents’ ways surface in us when we least expect it.

Every night for almost two decades, multidisciplinary artist Clare Johnson has drawn and written on a sticky note to save a small piece of each ending day. Currently including over 6,000 Post-its, this sprawling yet deeply intimate work honors what normal communication can’t—all the separate times held within ourselves, endlessly overlapping, collapsing, and refocusing.

Opening Reception: 1^st Thursday, September 4, 6-8pm
Additional 1^st Thursday: October 2, 6-8pm

Matthew Parker’s installations of foam rocks and boulders explore the intersection of art and disability, shaped by his experience of creating a body of work without a working body.
