“ORIGINAL PILIPINO MUSIC---A Historical Journey”
The tumultuous decade of the Seventies can be looked upon as an awakening in Philippine popular music. Historically influenced through the early years of colonization, Philippine music either had brushes of Spanish sentimentality, or outright copy-cat cover versions of American and Western pop music. Until that one song that let loose since a wave of liberating self-awareness in what is now called, OPM---Original Pilipino Music.

Artists At the Center is a multi-year collaboration between Seattle Office of Arts & Culture and Seattle Center, with support from Uptown Arts & Culture Coalition and the communities adjacent to Seattle Center campus. The project is made possible by a 10-year grant from Climate Pledge Arena and Seattle Kraken.
Join us as we introduce emerging and established artists and celebrate their talent on Seattle Center campus. Artists are given a performance opportunity, allowing them to connect with new audiences, display their talents and advance their careers. Visitors to campus and the surrounding neighborhood benefit from surprising and delightful pop-up performances throughout the year. Each year, artists are selected with an equity and social justice lens, ensuring equitable representation for underserved and emerging artists. Artistic genres include music, dance, theater, demonstrations, and multi-disciplinary work.
