Mission and Program Overview

Mission

Jack straw cultural center exists to foster the creation and communication of arts, ideas, and information to diverse audiences through audio media. We keep art, culture, and heritage vital through sound.

Jack Straw Cultural Center impacts the arts and cultural communities of Seattle in diverse and significant ways. In 2020, thousands of people listened to our radio productions and podcasts, visited our New Media Gallery, attended our events, and participated in our programs. Not only did we provide a unique laboratory and venue for artists working creatively with sound, but we also provided important services for numerous arts and heritage organizations in Seattle and Puget Sound. We offered arts and technology programs for elementary, middle, and high school students in schools, in various community locations, and at Jack Straw Cultural Center with a special focus on youth with disabilities and with students with limited English proficiency. We worked with Arts and Visually Impaired Audiences to provide access services for the visually impaired for performing and visual arts events, to provide the 24th year of our programs for blind and visually impaired students, and to provide a ser

IRS990/Desc0Education Programs: We served over 4,000 elementary, middle school, and high school students in creative and curriculum-based projects and performances including creative writing, oral history, radio theater, music recording, and audio production. Over the past year weve continued to expand our education programs with the Seattle World School, Vietnamese Friendship Association, and Concord Denny West Seattle Pathway and Dual Language program and others, and expanded our offerings for blind and visually impaired youth in partnership with the Department of Services for the Blind, Arts & Visually Impaired Audiences, Washington Talking Book and Braille Library, and the WA State School for the Blind. We completed the 24th year of our Blind Youth Audio Program, serving 13 blind and visually impaired high school students virtually from throughout Washington State. We began working with new school partners, including West Seattle Elementary and Genesee Hill Elementary. We continued our ongoing programs such as our poetry writing, performance, and recording with new refugees at the Seattle World School and Foster High School in Tukwila and with eighth grade Spanish immersion students at Denny International Middle School and our poetry and song projects with Concord and Lowell Elementary Schools. We also provided professional training for artists, teachers, and other community members.
