Olympia Artspace Alliance (OAA) is proud to present Savor, a new window installation featuring artwork by young artists from local schools. Now on view in the historic Goldberg Building at Capitol Way and Fourth Avenue, this exhibition runs through March 2026.

This season, Art in Olympia Storefronts invited teachers to submit student work inspired by the theme SAVOR—the beauty, comfort, joy, and connection we often overlook but deeply feel during the winter months. The result is a vibrant, thoughtful collection that encourages passersby to pause, reflect, and take in the moment.

Join us for an Opening Reception on December 12 at 5 pm at the Goldberg Building.

Olympia Artspace Alliance announces “Anything Goes” – a new exhibition of artworks by local artists that will be on view now through October 2025, in the windows of the Goldberg Building at Capitol Way at Fourth Avenue, downtown Olympia.

The exhibition features work from Calvin Douglass, Eryn Carlisle, Ryker Black and Shilo De La Cruz.

This winter, Art in Olympia Storefronts invites teachers to submit proposals for student artwork that captures what it means to SAVOR — the beauty, comfort, and delight we find in the season.

Selected works will transform downtown storefronts into a celebration of winter’s richness, seen through the eyes of young artists.
