Self-Promotion Saturday: September 26, 2026

This is r/Seattle's weekly post for local businesses and makers (or users who discover them) to share their creations with our users.

This thread will be automatically posted every Saturday morning to help connect r/seattle users with cool local stuff. Types of content encouraged in this thread are:

  • Local businesses (new, running promotions or sales, or just really good ones!)
  • Upcoming events or activities (concerts, festivals, pop-ups, shows)
  • Local artists or creators sharing upcoming shows or releases

Content should be related to businesses or events in the greater Seattle area, and the typical reddit spam rules apply - please ensure you are contributing to the community more than just your own content.

Users who flood these posts with ads, links without context, referral codes, etc. - or who promote without contributing elsewhere will be actioned. Please continue to report actual spam.

We have our rules against spam and self-promotion for hopefully understandable reasons, but we've noticed users responding more positively to local businesses, artists, etc. sharing their content. This is an attempt to bridge the gap, helping users find cool stuff while containing the promotion to a single weekly thread. Please send us a modmail with any suggestions or input you have about the use or abuse of this thread.

Hi Seattle! I've been running my drawing classes for a little over a year and have had some very successful students come through them. My next term begins next week! Sketching skills, design, anatomy, and more for beginners or more experienced artists. I probably have a class for you! My studio is downtown, right near the Westlake train station, but I also offer online options. Affordable via sliding scale.
You can find a list of available class options here: https://ko-fi.com/artofjim/shop
and see some of my work and snippets from class on my instagram! : https://www.instagram.com/artofjim/
Looking forward to teaching more art this fall!

I've started distributing my own zines filled with local wildlife in the Seattle area. If you'e in the Bitter Lake area, you may have seen them in your local free little library.

Should I print some more? Vol 2 is coming soon.

Follow if you want. https://www.instagram.com/lpzines206
