Art, BBQ, and Smells: A Week to Remember in Seattle

Seattle is stepping up its game with a week of creativity and fun that you simply can’t afford to miss! Kicking it off, Rax King is releasing her new book, “Sloppy: Or: Doing It All Wrong,” which promises to explore the chaotic yet relatable journey of self-improvement. If there’s one thing we can all agree on, it’s that being a hot mess can be pretty entertaining, and Rax embodies that spirit perfectly.

Then, mark your calendars because on August 12, John Waters brings his offbeat film, “Polyester,” back to life with a scratch-and-sniff twist. That’s right; you’ll actually get to sniff your way through the laughs with smells like roses and, yes, flatulence. If this doesn’t sound like a quirky good time, I don’t know what does!

The excitement doesn’t stop there. The KEXP BBQ is making a glorious return after a lengthy hiatus, giving foodies and music lovers alike a chance to come together on August 15. Enjoy live performances paired with some delicious BBQ food—because what’s better than good music and good eats? And for all the art enthusiasts, don’t miss the Smol Art Mart on August 17, showcasing over 150 local artists and fun activities.

With all this going on, what are you most excited to check out? Are you ready to embrace the smells, sights, and sounds of Seattle this week? Let’s dive right in!
