Shoreline City Hall Gallery - Living the Dream, Dreaming the Life: Artists Respond to the Edwin Pratt Legacy [Temporary Exhibit]

This group art exhibition at the Shoreline City Hall Gallery presented the work of local artists inspired by the life and legacy of Edwin T. Pratt, civil rights pioneer and Shoreline homeowner. In partnership with the Black Heritage Society of Washington State (BHS) and a Collections Care Grant from 4Culture, this unique exhibition asked artists to view documents and photographs from the Pratt Family archive recently donated to BHS by Miriam Pratt and Jean Soliz, Pratt’s daughter and the Pratt’s Shoreline neighbor and close family friend. Living the Dream, Dreaming the Life was juried by curator Hasaan Kirkland (Kairos Industry LLC), and David Francis, City of Shoreline Public Art Coordinator.
