Lower Level-Before Renovation
Lower Level - "Before"

Postmark's lower level previously housed a maze of dark hallways and exam rooms when the building operated as a King County Health Clinic for over four decades, prior to the building's closure in 2009.

Thanks to re-envisioned designs by Johnston Architects and expert renovations by American West Construction, the space has been completely transformed!

Lower Level-After Restoration
Lower Level -" After"

This amazing new community space would not have been made possible without the generous funding support from Washington State Historical Society and 4Culture!

The Postmark's new lower-level now houses a beautiful reception area, art gallery exhibition space, and spacious art studios equipped to offer a wide variety of programming and arts education, including: printmaking, jewelry, glass, music, dance, and more!
