About
CELEBRATING 20+ YEARS
ArtXchange Gallery is a contemporary art gallery that inspires exploration, encourages global perspectives and creates an exchange of ideas through art. We exhibit art that reflects the diversity of influences shaping the Seattle community and contemporary global culture.
Founded in 1995, ArtXchange Gallery has evolved from an online gallery to a pop-up showroom and now to our current 2000+ square foot gallery in Pioneer Square. The gallery features rotating exhibitions, as well as creative events including artist workshops, poetry readings and dance performances.
Want to attend an opening? Join us for Pioneer Square's historic First Thursday Artwalk, the first Thursday of every month from 5-8pm!
