VERA Georgetown

The Vera Project is coming to Georgetown!

In early 2027, The Vera Project will open a brand new always all-ages music, arts, and community space in Seattle’s Georgetown neighborhood. The approximately 250-300 capacity adaptive venue will launch with a full slate of community-curated programming focused on celebrating local subculture, uplifting up-and-coming artists in mixed genres and mediums, empowering youth-driven mutual aid, and providing a local resource for our new neighbors in the Duwamish Valley and South King County.

Can’t make it up to VERA? We’ll come to you. VERA’s new Georgetown space and programming is an intentional response to the needs expressed by our youth membership and shared communities (who will be democratically naming the venue this Summer), a rapidly increasing number of whom now reside in South Seattle and South King County. This project will ensure that safe space for radical self-expression is within reach for hundreds of thousands of new young people of all ages. 

Let’s put the Always in Always All-Ages. Thanks to our friends at Georgetown Calling a new artist-forward complex of practice and studio spaces – VERA has obtained an affordable 20-year lease and collaborative build-out process, securing the future of all-ages music, art and community in Seattle for decades to come.

What is VERA’s Georgetown space?

  • A mix between a DIY music venue and black box theatre, VERA’s Georgetown space will be modular and adaptable to meet the needs of all kinds of traditional and experimental showgoing experiences. 
  • In addition to our year-round slate of all-ages shows that you know and love, VERA’s Georgetown space will become the main hub for our new series’ of mixed-genre, community-curated events from Seattle’s underground music and arts – Hidden Track.
  • We are embracing anti-dynamic pricing for all events in VERA’s Georgetown space; 15% of the overall capacity for every show will be reserved for accessible pay-what-you-can tickets. Like our Seattle Center and Black Lodge locations, 100% of all ticket proceeds will directly support not-for-profit, youth-centered music, arts, and community programming in Seattle. 
  • VERA’s Georgetown space will have an “open door” policy for local mutual aid groups, grassroots organizing initiatives, and mission-aligned nonprofits, offering free or at-cost space and equipment rentals as well as featuring a revolving organization at weekly concerts and events.
