Terrain: Spokane's Hub for Artistic Expression and Community Building
Terrain, the region's largest multimedia art and music event, recently celebrated its 15th year, showcasing a vibrant array of artistic expression. Ginger Ewing, Terrain co-founder, shared her insights on Terrain's impact and its significance for the local community.
"Imagine two vacant warehouses in the heart of downtown Spokane, transformed into a sprawling canvas for 427 local artists and their 795 pieces of artwork," Ewing described. "Terrain is a celebration of visual art, literary art, dance, performance, and music, all converging to create a truly immersive experience."
Ewing emphasized Terrain's commitment to supporting local artists, stating, "In 2023 alone, we put $983,000 directly back into our local artists' pockets. Terrain is more than just an event; it's a platform for empowering artists and fostering a sense of community."
While there we also caught up with Slam Poet, Twahan Simultaneous, artist Jinx Universem Dancer and Performer Mackenzie Fagras, Photographer and Dancer Hector Aizon. The Owner and Director of Legit Creative Joshua Thomas, Architect and Artist, Lupe Barajas, and musician and vocalist, Helmer Noel.
