The Seattle Chamber Music Society (SCMS) and Frederick Holmes and Company Gallery of Modern and Contemporary Art are pleased to announce a new partnership. The gallery will begin exhibiting rotating works at SCMS’ Center for Chamber Music on March 20, continuing throughout 2024.

Frederick Holmes and Company is a boutique fine art gallery, founded in 2013 and located at 309 Occidental Avenue South, in the center of Seattle’s historic Pioneer Square. The company’s programming consists of a rotating schedule of monthly exhibitions of both emerging contemporary artists from the Pacific Northwest and Nationally. The Gallery’s ongoing presentation of 20^th Century Modern includes works by Picasso, Chagall, Dali and Miro, and is the exclusive representative of the art-historic estates of American Modernists, Walter Quirt and Oscar Van Young.

“While our headquarters in Pioneer Square will remain fully operational, this rotating gallery at SCMS’ Center for Chamber Music, our gallery annex, allows us to reach another audience and pair works by iconic masters with SCMS’ renowned artists. It’s a remarkable multi-disciplinary partnership that will combine two of Seattle’s premier arts organizations.” – Frederick Holmes, Owner of Frederick Holmes and Company

“I am overjoyed at this opportunity to activate our space with world-class art, alongside our world-class musicians. Come to a concert in Seattle’s most intimate venue and view an exhibition of works by Chagall, Calder, Dali – I can think of nothing better!” – John Holloway, Executive Director of Seattle Chamber Music Society.
