Last Friday, the Mediums Collective storefront on Capitol Hill was transformed into a powerful sanctuary for “palabras sin miedo” (words without fear). The collective’s “Brown Voices Poetry & Spoken Word Night” successfully gathered local artists and community members to share stories that resonated with themes of resilience, advocacy, and resistance.

Seattle Mariners FanFest was a historic kickoff to the baseball season, generating excitement for what the team has in store for 2026. The weekend's highlight was a monumental announcement led by Converge Media: the Steelheads are officially back. 

Taking the long way around isn’t just about the miles. For Converge Media co-founder Erik Kalligraphy, it’s about the narrative found in the margins. Recently, the Converge Media team hit the pavement for another installment of Converge on the Road, a series dedicated to capturing the pulse of the Pacific Northwest and beyond.

The second annual On the Block Holiday Special creative marketplace recently brought together a community of local artists, vendors, and creatives for a weekend of celebration and fundraising in Seattle. Held at the Quality Flea Center, the event was a coming-together and a vital effort to raise funds for the organization’s year-round programming.

Seattle artist Lady P recently hosted Lady P & Friends at Vermillion Art Gallery & Bar, presenting an intimate, community-driven live music event rooted in connection, reflection, and raw expression. More than a performance, the night felt like a gathering, bringing together close collaborators and longtime friends like MDM London, YKTMV, and PS, and her audience into a space that felt personal rather than performative.
