Vision

The Youngstown Cultural Arts Center is a multi-purpose facility dedicated to arts, education, and to the provision of space for members of the community to create, converse, and perform.

Located in the heart of the Delridge neighborhood in West Seattle, the Center offers exciting and affordable rental spaces suitable for a variety of uses from live performances, classes and workshops to business, civic and social occasions. Available resources include a recording studio, media lab, 150 seat performance venue, movement studio, workshop, promenade gallery, and convenient conference and classroom spaces.

Innovative arts, education and outreach programs presented in conjunction with Youngstown tenants, program partners, community groups, and individual artists increase opportunities for people to express and define themselves and enrich the quality of life for the surrounding community, especially the lives of young people.

Cooper Artist Housing at the Youngstown Cultural Arts Center provides 36 affordable live/work studios for rent to artists of all disciplines on the top two floors and in the converted attic of the building. (The DocuPortrait Project, a short film by Nonfiction Media, highlights the personalities that live and work in the building. Check it out.)
