MadArt Studio is a contemporary art studio, gallery, and private event venue located in Seattle’s South Lake Union neighborhood, just north of downtown. We often host smaller, cocktail-style events during our large-scale interactive art installations, and larger, seated events when the studio is empty between exhibitions. By choosing MadArt Studio, you are in turn supporting artists in creating new, immersive exhibitions and sharing them with the community.

Constructed in the 1920s, MadArt Studio was once a car dealership and later a DMV where the first driving tests were conducted. Nearly a century later, this historic building has been reimagined with the help of celebrated Seattle design firm, Graham Baba Architects, this time as a hub for unique events and artistic innovation. Featuring the building’s original brick walls alongside exposed beams and floor-to-ceiling windows, MadArt Studio provides a distinctive yet versatile space for a variety of events, including weddings, corporate meetings, intimate dinners, and cocktail soirees. Our rates average ~$300/hr but vary depending on timing and scope/scale of event; please email us for additional pricing details.

In addition to our main studio, we have a small office on the second floor of the adjacent 325 Westlake loft apartment building. This space is great for use as a compact conference room, bridal suite, or staging area. It may be rented on it’s own or in conjunction with an event at MadArt Studio.
Email events@madartseattle.com for more information.
After opening as a venue in 2015, we are proud to have hosted over 70 events, including more than 20 weddings and 30 corporate events. Others have ranged from high school proms and public dance performances, to birthday parties and baby showers, to classical music concerts and photoshoots. Included below are a few images of past events as well as an extensive list of press about our venue.
