This year, we invite artists, designers, and creative technologists to dive into the realms of renewable energy and art. Set against the stunning backdrop of the Cascade mountains in the Skykomish Ballpark, Electric Sky is a weekend retreat (Thu-Sun) that merges community, collaboration and learning and culminates with an evening outdoor art walk open to the public.

Through the generosity of 4Culture, Third Place Technologies / SkyArtworks is providing grants to support participating artists and technologists using AR, XR, electronics, sensors, interactivity, solar technologies, and self-illumination to craft installations and workshops that resonate with our theme exploring renewable energies. Our 2024 supported art+tech+workshop contributors include Alexandra Krongel, Andrew Cole, Katrina Romero, Typonexus, Church of the Black Hole, Ana Davidson, Bruce Cooper (Renewables for Artists Team), Jeff Brice, Genevieve Tremblay, Falona Joy and Shelly Farnham.
MAKE: In the spirit of hackathons, hang out in our Pop-up Makerspace, dive into impromptu collaborations, or create something extraordinary for the show.
LEARN: Participate in free art/tech workshops throughout the weekend, enhancing your skills and expanding your creative network. Workshops include Soldering 101; Playing with Wind: Make an LED Pinwheel or Mini Wind Turbine; Vision Cubing; Augmented Environments (AR); and Intro to Solar Energy in Art.
