Shoreline-Lake Forest Park Arts Council

The ShoreLake Arts Gallery exhibits and sells the work of local artists each year, helping artists build and develop their carreers. In addition to its rotating exhibits and ongoing sales, the Gallery connects the community with art through free, hands-on art to increase knowledge of new artists and art techniques. The Gallery remains home to the Little Free Art Studio where the community exchanges art materials and books. As of the Fall of 2024 the Gallery is in a new location at the heart of a Shoreline neighborhood business district. The new location includes office and classroom space and provides increased exhibit space, enables ShoreLake Atrs to host more community events and to showcase an even greater variety of work from local and emerging artisits. ShorLake Arts now also curates and hosts local artist exhibits in area restaurants.

Arts Culture offerings include free public events such as the summer Concerts in the Park series Shakespeare in the Park the Dia de Muertos Celebration a Lunar New Year Lantern Festival and the Underground Holiday Market. The program also produces one ticketed event - the Shoreline Short Short Film Festival - where winners take home cash prizws. In 2024, over 8,000 people attended in-person events, of which, ovwer 80 participated in free events.
