Ballard ArtWalk - Tate Irwin - June 2026
Our June artist is Tate Irwin, who also designed our stunning logo!
Join us for Ballard ArtWalk the second Saturday of every month!
Based in Seattle, Tate Irwin is an illustrator and graphic designer who brings imagination to life through graphite, charcoal, printmaking, oil paint, and digital mediums. His work, inspired by anatomy, nature, and everyday emotions, reflects influences from James Jean, Alphonse Mucha, and tattoo artistry. Each piece carries a distinct blend of intricate detail and bold storytelling.
When he’s not creating, Tate can be found hiking the PNW trails with his dog, exploring the greater Seattle area, getting lost in a good book, or perfecting the art of bread-making.

Ballard ArtWalk - March 2026: Barnacles and Moss
Join us for Ballard ArtWalk the second Saturday of every month!
More details on our March artist:
Ruth Ann is the self taught illustrator behind the title Barnacles and Moss. Ruth Ann uses her love of horror, folklore and storytelling to create intricately detailed illustrations that are full of both darkness and whimsy. Although her detailed artwork gravitates toward a spooky atmosphere, her goal is to always shine a positive light on creatures and ideas that might otherwise be considered ugly, scary, or lost.

Retro Night: Thread Hunter & Majestic Bay Theaters are screening Mean Girls
We’re teaming up with Thread Hunter to offer an extremely exclusive drink for one day — The Regina.
This is a special milk steamer topped with real cherry blossom flowers in homage to the purse and belt Regina wears throughout the movie. These flowers are very difficult to source so when it’s gone it’s gone! Come by early to get your own.
On Wednesdays we wear pink! Thread Hunter has been stockpiling a collection of pink items in anticipation of this screening — show a receipt from Thread Hunter or proof of purchase of a ticket to the screening for 10% off your order at Artemis Coffee on March 11.

Ballard ArtWalk - February 2026
Join us for Ballard ArtWalk the second Saturday of every month!
Our artist for February 2026 is Bee Fischer:
Bee Fischer is a Seattle-based artist using many mediums from digital illustration to mixed media painting.
