Open Gallery Hours — Invisible Threads: Matrilineages of Blood, Time, and Place
Invisible Threads:
Matrilineages of Blood, Time, and Place
In Invisible Threads: Matrilineages of Blood, Time, and Place, we trace the subtle but powerful connections that stretch across generations. Through this process of discovery, we uncover the silent legacies carried within our bodies, waiting to be heard. Art becomes a way to honor these matrilineal pathways, giving form to the unseen bonds that connect us to those who came before.
This exhibition challenges us to rethink the way we understand inheritance—not just as the passing down of genetic traits, but as the transmission of memory, wisdom, and strength. Through the act of artistic exploration, we can recover what was lost, reframe what was forgotten, and offer new narratives that give voice to the women who shaped the fabric of our being. In doing so, we not only uncover family mysteries but also reclaim the power of our matrilineal histories and our selfhood, illuminating the transcendental threads that link us all.

Free form and spontaneous, these beautifully complex pieces are then held as singers are welcome to solo over the patterns. The layering of rhythmic and melodic patterns, call and response, vocal percussion and free improvisation requires attentive listening and a willingness to playfully experiment.
Debby is a working artist and a non-resident member of Side Rail Collective. She enjoys Side Rail's dedication to creating an inclusive and vibrant environment for creatives. And, hey!...that's what Circle Singing is all about. Hope to see you soon. Register now to save your spot as our space holds up to 25 singers.

Word to a Mother - Writing Workshop Exploring Invisible Threads
What stories do you hold in your body?
How do you connect these stories to your ancestors?
What comes to mind when you hear the word “matriarchy”?
On March 27, we explore such questions in a workshop that weaves personal reflection into Side Rail Collective’s gallery show, Invisible Threads: Matrilineages of Blood, Time, and Place.
Exhibit curator Shawna Stewart describes Invisible Threads as a challenge to “rethink the way we understand inheritance—not just as the passing down of genetic traits, but as the transmission of memory, wisdom, and strength. Through the act of artistic exploration, we can recover what was lost, reframe what was forgotten, and offer new narratives that give voice to the women who shaped the fabric of our being.”
We come together to do just this. Through guided, written meditation and creation, we deepen our connection to those who shaped us and wonder more readily at what we want to leave behind.
Perfect for any curious human craving reflection, connection, and play.
Session Hosted By Anna Sullivan from Pidge Post

Open Arts Night
Join us on Thursday, March 12 for our monthly Open Arts Night, every 2nd Thursday at the Side Rail Collective! Open Arts Night is a guided art activity and open mic — each month there is a different featured artist who guides the activity and a featured performer who kicks off the open mic.
This month, our featured Artist is Carrie Stafford @kyachuu_potion
Carrie will be leading a manifestation jars project using sand art project. This involves writing an intention and making a sand bottle with trimmings and other adornments.
Carrie Stafford (she/they) is an art therapist, electric violinist, and tarot reader based in Seattle, Washington. Fueled by a passion for creative expression and psychology, she believes in arts' powerful ability to heal and transform. Through their passions, she ties together creativity, healing, and connection, inviting others to explore their own transformative potential.
Our Featured Performer is Intisaar @intisaarband @radiogazaseattle
Intisaar is a Palestinian American singer, composer, and recording artist. Known for her vocal range and emotive, ornate melodic style, Intisaar captivates audiences with little more than her voice and a 12 string Martin. Her dynamic songs weave intricate finger picking with driving rhythms. Her lyrics span the spectrum of emotion-- joy, anger, introspection, loss, and anthemic calls to action.
A $10–$20 suggested donation goes toward supplies and the operation of this event.

Open Arts Night - Nov 13
Open Arts Night
Side Rail is joining forces with Acorn Collective to offer a unique open arts night to the public once a month!
The event will be hosted at Side Rail Collective (in Georgetown) every 2nd Thursday of the month!
This Month:
FEATURED ARTIST + ART ACTIVITY
Mónica Mendoza-Cawthon (Móni La Artivista) will lead the November Open Arts with a painting workshop centered around tapping into feelings, and exploring how the power of painting and art can bring us more joy. Let go ofthe need for perfection, learn to have fun and look at certain things in another way!
Mónica's creations are fueled by her passion for social and environmental causes, her rich Mexican heritage, and her love of science fiction, horror, and mysticism. Through her art and cultural endeavors, Mónica seeks to inspire others to dream boldly, heal deeply, and act courageously. Her hope is that her work will become both a mirror and a spark - reflecting truth, resilience, and the power to effect change.
FEATURED PERFORMER
Noe Navarro is a Costa Rican electric guitarist and singer-songwriter that mixes Afro-Latin American rhythms with a unique, soulful sound. Her expressive guitar sound and captivating voice define her style, creating a dynamic mix that draws listeners in. Her songs are characterized by electric guitar, vocals, and beatboxing, telling personal stories filled with metaphors and fantasies that invite listeners to look inward and question the hegemonic structures of today's society through tenderness, introspection, and inner dialogue.
Interested in being a featured artist or performer? Check out our open call!
This project is supported, in part, by a grant from 4Culture.
