Mural (far right) by artist @yetigraffiti
PH Coll 1621.KinseyK149During the COVID-19 pandemic in Seattle, many small businesses were forced to temporarily close. Many suffered damage and theft as vandals began breaking store windows and defacing storefronts with graffiti. Store and local restaurant owners were forced to shutter their windows and doors with plywood as the COVID-19 Seattle wide shutdown continued. Neighborhood communities looked for ways to brighten up the shuttered businesses and to support local artists. Gradually many of the plywood shutters were converted to works of art, transforming neighborhoods with messages of hope, love and support.
The first confirmed case of the global pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in the United States was announced by the Washington State Department of Health and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on January 21, 2020. The patient had recently returned from Wuhan, China, on January 15, 2020, where a pneumonia outbreak caused by the coronavirus started in December 2019.
This case marked the beginning of the coronavirus Covid-19 outbreak in Washington State and the beginning of a radical change in the lives of the citizens of Washington and the rest of the United States. The virus rapidly spread through the population so that within a month, businesses were closed and boarded up, unemployment soared to record highs as people lost their jobs overnight, schools and public events were canceled. People began stocking up on toilet paper, hand sanitizer and other products leaving grocery store shelves bare of some products. By March 23rd, Governor Jay Inslee directed Washington residents to stay home by executive order with exceptions for essential critical infrastructure workers. Until mid-March, Washington State had the highest number of confirmed cases and the highest number per capita of any state in the country, when it was surpassed by New York State as the virus spread throughout the country

Chinatown-International District resiliency poster, 2020
Multimedia artist Moynee Chau grew up in the Chinatown-International District of Seattle. Early on in the COVID-19 pandemic, Chau became aware of xenophobic and racist stickers posted in the neighborhood by a white nationalist hate group. In response to this anti-Asian backlash, Chau created this poster to support the community and honor its history of resilience.
In a statement on their website, Chau stats: "Seattle’s Chinatown International District had been the target of white nationalists stickers as a fear tactic to intimidate the neighborhood. This was intentional and racially charged. I made these posters for folks to share and post as a response, I am posting the PDF for free for folks to print/post/share themselves."Text on poster: Chinatown Filipinotown Japantown Little Saigon were all built on resilience / We will survive this too

Mariners "Seat Fleet" coroplast cut outs of dogs Isabelle and Phoebe, 2020
During the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020, fans were prohibited from attending Seattle Mariners baseball games that season at T-Mobile Park. The Mariners organization offered to create coroplast cut outs of people or pets submitted by fans for a cost of $30 each. A portion of the money raised went to the All in Washington COVID Relief Fund. Known as the "Seat Fleet," the cut outs were placed in the seats of the stadium as stand-ins for the fans. These two cut outs were located in Section 238 Row 5. Furry four-legged fans, Isabelle and Phoebe, are best friends and met at a puppy play group in Seattle.1 Picture, Animal; Materials: plastic; Dimensions: 31.25 in.H x 23 in.W x .25 in.
Grid box holders used for vaccine development at the University of Washington in 2020
These grid box holders were used in vaccine development at the Institute for Protein Design (IPD) at the University of Washington. They contain tiny pieces of copper coated in carbon which enables one to look at proteins under an electron microscope and assure that the development is proceeding as expected. The two head scientists of the project were Alexandra (Lexi) Walls and Brooke Fiala and these grid box holders were used by Fiala. This particular vaccine uses a structure-based vaccine design technique which was developed by the King Lab (named for lead Neil King) at the IPD. It is potentially the first US SARS-COVID vaccine to be developed at an academic institution.2 Rack, Laboratory; Materials: plastic; Dimensions: 1.5 in.H x 3 in.W x .25 in.
Floor decal from All the Best Pet Care, "Please keep 2 Great Danes apart," 2020
During the COVID-19 pandemic, the CDC recommended “social distancing” which included standing at least six feet apart from others while in public spaces. Many businesses used stickers or other markings on the floor to keep patrons six feet apart while lining up to pay. Some, like All the Best Pet Care in Seattle, got creative with their signage. This sticker is part of a humorous series that used the sizes of common pets to visualize the distance.1 Sign, Instructional; Materials: plastic; Dimensions: 18 in.Dia
