A spokesperson describes the event as follows:

“…The Pacific Northwest is home to a unique artistic ecosystem involving craft traditions, pre-industrial cultures, and Indigenous and settler histories… Indie Folk: New Art and Sounds from the Pacific Northwest explores these themes through the lens of contemporary artworks by seventeen artists who call the Northwest their home. It is also home to the music genre “indie folk,” referenced not only in the title but also in the accompanying soundtrack that plays throughout the gallery. Intergenerational and employing a wide variety of styles and mediums, the featured artists find inspiration in the authenticity and resourcefulness of folk and other artistic genres rooted in the vernacular…”
