an offering for the seattle diaspora of koun khmer, near and far. tell your bong, p'oun, bok, maiy, ming, pu, tha, and yeays! its an intergenerational hang with khmer art, khmer music, and khmer culture!
this year, we will hyperfocus on kbach [ក្បាច់] - intricate hand gestures used in classical khmer dance. These gestures communicate, tell stories, and represent emotions (joy, fear, love) or natural elements (flowers, leaves, animals) within the dance.
Handpoke 101 with Molica Chau is an intimate, hands-on workshop exploring the art of traditional tattooing through intention, care, and presence. Molica has been a consistent creative force at Studio 7117—tattooing throughout our art walks, Khmer-centered events, and offering 1:1 sessions that hold deep trust and connection within our community.
Step into the circle and move with us in preparation for Khmer New Year.

03/29 – Lam Leav
04/05 – Madison
Attend all three sessions or drop into any that call to you (though we encourage moving through the full series for a deeper experience).

This week we are excited to be hosting an art show + iftar with @studio.7117, as part of the First Thursday Pioneer Square Art Walk!
For the artist, the act of creation is a form of seeking. Every stroke of a brush, every line of poetry, and every captured photograph is a reflection of the Divine Beauty (Al-Jamal) found in the world around us.
This evening is dedicated to the Muslim artists of Seattle those who have often searched for a space where their work is not just seen, but truly celebrated.
We invite all attendees, whether you are displaying art or coming to appreciate it to join us!
Please register so we can get a headcount for the iftar meal.
Food catered by @salimaspecialties 🍚
@minasmatchacafe will be on site if you’d like to buy drinks! 🍵
