Description: Without question, Re-bar was one of the Seattle's most historic nightclubs, hosting countless local and touring bands over its three decade run. Born into the grunge scene in 1990, the building it called home at the foot of Capitol Hill was built in 1930, and certainly playing into the venue's quirky charm. When it wasn't hosting live music, this anchor of the alternative arts scene presented work from local artists, theatre and comedy, and held rocking dance nights. Re-bar was routinely filled to the brim with hipsters, freaks, geeks, artists, gays, intellectuals, punks, rockers, ravers, and clubbers – a true showcase of the eclectic diversity of Seattle. The fact that they made some mean cocktails was just the icing on the cake.
Description: Artist Illustration of a watercolor illustration I painted captures the stunning Seattle sunset as seen from Capitol Hill, with the majestic Puget Sound in the distance. The warm hues of orange and pink blend seamlessly with the cool blues of the water, creating a serene and picturesque scene. The brushstrokes and textures add depth and dimension to the artwork, making it a beautiful representation of the natural beauty of Seattle.

Description: While it may be hard to believe now, back in the '70s, Seattle's Capitol Hill only had a smattering of places to eat, and the quality of these establishments is up to conjecture. Charlie Quinn decided to change this by opening Charlie's on Broadway in 1976. This was an era when state liquor laws required bar areas to be separate, which is the reason behind Charlie's odd dual-entrance setup. While laws changed, Charlie’s welcoming vibe and famous Pepper Pot Soup stayed the same for nearly 40 years.
