Let's Talk SHOP

Earlier this week, we suggested 5 different ways you can "Take the STAGE" to support Seattle arts:  Shop, Tickets, Attend, Give, Engage.  Today, we wanted to talk "SHOP" and share some of our favorite arts items that you can buy online today.  All under $100.  If you can't go to the art, have the art come to you!

 

Vetri Glass

We love the clean and modern designs of all the glass pieces at Vetri Glass. We particularly love this Twisty Rainbow Wine Glass, which would definitely perk up your at home Zoom Happy Hours. In addition to home and decorative pieces, Vetri also has some great jewelry. Use code ARTMATTERS at checkout to get 20% off!

Amusements Gift Shop

The Amusements Gift Shop carries items related to the Pacific Northwest Ballet and Seattle Opera. While we were tempted by the branded t-shirts and sweats (to spice up our new working from home uniform), we were ultimately drawn to the collection of Seattle Opera show posters. We loved the colors of The Pearl Fishers poster from 2015, which would brighten up our new home office. Use code FS2020 for FREE U.S. shipping and 10SHIP for $10 OFF international shipping. (You can also listen to clips from the Seattle Opera’s production here.)

KOBO Seattle

With locations in the International District and Capitol Hill, Kobo, which means "artist's workspace" in Japanese, is an artisan gallery featuring Japanese and Northwest fine crafts. They are offering some great gift kits to help us get through these difficult times (includes free shipping!), but we loved the playfulness of this Blue Dot Plate by local artist Kathy Berd. (Also available in a bowl with a similar design.)

SAM Shop

While you’ve probably browsed in the SAM Shop after a trip to the Seattle Art Museum, you might not know they also have an online shop full of gifts, jewelry and art books. We thought this Alexander Calder-inspired Standing Circles Desktop Mobile would look great in our home office and provide just the right amount of procrastination. SAM members receive 10% off. (Note that shipments from the SAM Shop may be delayed due to the closure of the physical store.)
