Organizational Statement
- 206 Zulu is a Seattle-based community organization, established in 2004, that uses Hip Hop culture and the arts as platforms for community service, education and empowerment.
206 Zulu’s diverse membership expanded throughout the Pacific Northwest and a wide array of programs flourished to include all-ages events, concerts, festivals, dance competitions, workshops, classes, conferences, multimedia programs, and more.
In 2009, 206 Zulu became incorporated as a nonprofit and continued to build long term rapport with the greater community, local schools and academia, city, county and government agencies, cultural centers, institutions and other nonprofits.
206 Zulu became an anchor partner of the historic Washington Hall, a venue and community space that has been a hub for notable artists, musicians, activists and communities of color since 1908, helping to manage the daily operations of the building and providing valuable space for events, programs, and community functions.
206 Zulu’s efforts in organizing and service has been spotlighted in publications such as Seattle Times, Real Change News, City Arts Magazine and recognized with awards and recognitions from the City of Seattle, the State of Washington, El Centro de la Raza, and the National Trust for Historic Preservation. 206 Zulu’s model of organizing helped inspire similar organizations around the United States and the world.
