Tech Atelier
Tech Atelier is a new Frye affinity group for people passionate about where art and technology meet. Bringing together patrons, artists, technologists, creative entrepreneurs, and other curious minds, Tech Atelier explores the intersections of art, technology, and craft through historical and contemporary creative practice.
Inspired by the historic artist’s atelier—a place of experimentation, making, and exchange—Tech Atelier offers behind-the-scenes access to the people, processes, and stories behind creative work. Meet the artists, designers, engineers, conservators, and makers whose collaborations bring ambitious ideas to life.
How does Tech Atelier work?
In its inaugural year, Tech Atelier unfolds through three complementary program models. Salons are intimate gatherings where big ideas meet small groups. Field Trips open the doors to artist studios, fabrication shops, research labs, and other sites of innovation rarely seen by the public. Tech Atelier Events bring artists and audiences together through public talks, demonstrations, and workshops at the Frye.
Together, these experiences are designed to cultivate community, spark interdisciplinary exchange, and build lasting relationships.
How can I get involved?
Tech Atelier supporters enjoy the unique opportunity to shape this new group's vision and impact alongside Frye curators and artists. Your support inspires innovative programming, compelling exhibitions, and intimate members-only events that foster collaboration and push the boundaries of what’s next for art and tech in Seattle.
