Seattle Art Dealers Association

The Seattle Art Dealers Association (SADA) is the organization responsible for today’s vibrant gallery scene in Seattle (including the popular First Thursday Gallery Walk). SADA was created in 1990 to uphold high ethical standards among its membership and to promote cultural and educational activities. The driving force behind SADA is rotating visual arts exhibitions, and with diverse galleries, viewers have a huge variety of offerings from which to choose. It is the goal of SADA to develop and promote programs directed toward expanding the art world of Greater Seattle and to increase the public confidence in responsible fine art dealers. Other purposes are to disperse information about issues of concern to us, and to seek out services for members, and our artists.
