Seattle's Trophy Cupcakes will be serving up special cupcakes at weekend-long music festival Bumbershoot. From Eat Bellevue:
Bumbershoot: Seattle’s Music & Arts Festival this year is celebrating the 40th annual Festival, and to commemorate the milestone, Trophy Cupcakes has created some amazing and unique cupcakes depicting highlights of Bumbershoot poster art featured in the retrospective exhibition, Umbrella for the Arts: 40 Years of Bumbershoot Artwork. On display at Seattle City Hall through September 7, 2010, this exhibition features 40 years of Bumbershoot posters and original artworks created specifically for the Festival. The limited edition cupcakes will be available at Trophy Cupcakes stores, on a first-come, first-served basis, starting Thursday, July 22 through the end of the festival.
The Bumbershoot cupcakes will retail for $3.50 each with 100% of the proceeds generously going to benefit Bumbershoot’s Send a Kid program. Established by One Reel in 2004 and founded on the core belief that all kids benefit from experiencing art and music, this program helps send under-served youth from our community to Bumbershoot with an accompanying adult.
The Bumbershoot cupcakes feature designs by some of the artists in the exhibition Umbrella for the Arts including Claes Oldenburg, Jacob Lawrence, Joe Max Emminger, Barbara Earl Thomas, Faye Jones, Ginny Ruffner, Cheryl dos Remédios and Dawn Cerny. These are just some of the amazing artists whose work has defined Bumbershoot’s look over the past four decades. Umbrella for the Arts is open to the public through September 7 from 9AM to 6PM in the City Hall Lobby Gallery and Anne Focke Gallery at 600 Fourth Avenue. Admission is free.
There's more! Though sadly we cannot be there (Seattle readers, if you want to cover this for us, drop us a line at cupcakestakethecake at gmail.com), Trophy Cupcakes owner Jennifer Shea will be speaking on the September 6th panel "Why Bacon? Why Cupcakes? Why Now?" (note: I love this title! who wouldn't want to attend?)
