Community Focus
We believe it is essential to actively support and participate in our community. This allows us to give back to the local community, maintain knowledge of current trends in the market, and build relationships that are essential for our projects. When she is not appraising, Pamela also works as a Specialist for the SAM Gallery at the Seattle Art Museum and reviews cultural events for 4Culture.

Active community participation
We frequently attend gallery openings, auctions, lectures, seminars, tours, and other arts events throughout the Pacific Northwest. This allows us to build professional relationships, continue our education, and support the local arts community.

We have also managed the submissions and jury process for the Reflections Art Program in schools and Pamela served as the 2022 - 2023 Co-Chair for the Reflections Art Program in Seattle.
