WALK DONT RUN

WALKDONTRUN is a one-day art walk marathon designed to reimagine downtown Seattle through music, visual art, and live performance. Stretching 3 kilometers from Pioneer Square to Belltown, this urban route transforms sidewalks, plazas, storefronts, and public spaces into a stage for creativity and connection.

WALKDONTRUN is more than an event—it’s a community-powered celebration of Seattle’s creative spirit and a bold step toward downtown revitalization through public art and cultural activation.

What to Expect:

• Artist activations in unexpected spaces
• Pop-up performances + dance
• Live music
• Interactive art activities
• A mapped 3k walkable route
• Local business and non-profit partners

Whether you stroll the entire route or stop to take in the sights, WALKDONTRUN invites you to slow down, engage, and experience downtown in a whole new way.
