01 / About

An art fair, assembled in conversation. July 22–26, 2026

Assembly is a gallery-led, invitational art fair organized by a cohort of Seattle's leading galleries, with founding members including Traver Gallery and Greg Kucera Gallery. Each represented gallery is selected for its unique curatorial perspective and the questions — material, cultural, and conceptual — that its artists engage.


In place of a conventional booth layout, Assembly unfolds as a series of exhibitions; each gallery with its own unique space, allowing for intimate encounters with art and meaningful dialogue between artists, curators, and collectors.

Interior · West Canal Yards

Opening July 22nd, 2026, Assembly is an intentionally small alternative to the conventional fair, bringing together leading galleries from the Western US with meaningfully curated exhibitions and site-specific projects within extraordinary architectural settings.


Assembly is designed to foster a distinct dialogue between artworks and their surroundings, reframing how art is experienced, encountered, and collected.


More information about participating galleries, programming, and partners will be announced in the coming months.
