SWSPP just came back from St. Lucia! January 4th through the 15th, five members of SWSPP went to Laborie St. Lucia to take part in a 10 day steel pan and Brazilian percussion workshop. The steel pan workshop was led by an internationally known pan player Andy Narell. The women of SWSPP got to learn and play alongside musicians and music students from around the world. It was an amazing experience and we hope to bring some of the players from the local youth band in Laborie up to Seattle sometime in the near future! Check the photos and video montage below!

Huge Success!

Earthy Things Made Even Was a HUGE Success! Thank you to everyone musicians, dancers, visual artists, donors,  Office of Arts and Culture, set crew! Was great working with such a large and talented group of people to make this project (sponsored by Seattle Office of Arts and Culture) possible!!!

Free Public Performance This Saturday June 17th

If you missed our debut of Earthy Things Made Even don't miss our last scheduled performances of the suite THIS Saturday June 17th Westlake Park at 1:00 pm and then again at 2:30 pm

Dates are set for Earthy Things Made Even! Mark your calendar!

SWSSP is partnering with sculptor Charlie Mostow, a Seattle native now living in Brooklyn NY.  Mostow is currently working on artwork for the production of our upcoming show "Earthy things made Even". Charlie is creating several lifelike components for the 8 foot carnival puppet featured in one of our dance pieces.
 Check out the progress! Looking forward to debuting this multi-media production Sunday May 28th at Folklife Festival, 3:25, Mural Amphitheater!

New Upcoming Project:

The SWSPP has been awarded a City Arts Grant by the Seattle Office of Arts and Culture to create a 30-40 minute suite of original music and dance with over 25 participating women musicians, dancers and other artists. The grant amount is for $5600 and while generous, it is not enough to meet our budget of $15,000. Our fundraising goal now is $10,000. We need proper funding to cover production costs for sets, costumes, construction of an 8’ tall carnival puppet, transportation, promotions and fair compensation for all participating artists.
