The Belmont

The Belmont's send-off was an amazing event. The mood was both electric and somber at the same time. On one hand, there were a lot of people enjoying the art and just being around each other. On the other hand, sobering knowledge that this space would soon be destroyed to make way for more condos. The room installations were nothing short of amazing, ranging in styles as diverse as the artists themselves. The hallways were also plastered with tons of local artists' works. Paste-ups, stickers, spray paint, detailed paint, sculpture, pictures... you name it and it was on a wall somewhere in the house.

You can see tons of photos from the event by using this flickr search, by visiting The Belmont pool, and the Seattle Streetart / Graffiti / Stickers / Posters pool on Flickr.
