Instagram Inspiration: Seahawks Spirit
Go Hawks! For real this time.
By Kirsten Abel September 17, 2015
After a Seahawks loss, do you ever feel like it was partially your fault? Like maybe you could have done more as a fan—cheered a little louder, sent more good vibes toward the television, or decked yourself out in more blue and green gear? It’s a silly superstition, but I feel it every time.
Last Sunday was an especially tough loss, in overtime, and after we’d been waiting so long for football to return. This week, just in case, let’s really go all out. Let’s wear our Seahawks hats, accessories, and jerseys. Let’s bake Seattle-themed cookies and drink 12th Man beer. And let’s cheer extra, extra loud from our couches and barstools.
Get hyped for the game with photos from these five awesome Instagram accounts. Kickoff is at 5:30 p.m!

Seattle’s Big Holiday Arts Guide
A full lineup of seasonal performances across local theaters and venues.
In the words of William Shakespeare, “All’s well that ends well.” Local theater and arts organizations are hoping for exactly that. Holiday productions often account for as much as half of their annual ticket sales. A 2018 Dance/USA survey found that The Nutcracker alone represented 48% of yearly revenue for many companies producing the Tchaikovsky…
Outside the Frame
In their first solo museum exhibition in Seattle, artist Camille Trautman uses photography to reclaim history, narrative, and self-expression.
You have probably seen Camille Trautman’s work without even realizing it. A huge photograph—20 feet wide—is currently hanging across the exterior of the Frye Art Museum, visible to passersby driving along Boren Avenue. The image is of a wooded landscape in black and white. Its edges are vacuous, with trees swallowed by darkness, but the…
