2020 WOA Arts & Culture Award Honoree
Karli Ingersoll
Homenajeada por Mujeres de Logros 2020
~ Arts & Culture Award ~
Congratulations Karli!
Gracias por vivir la misión de YWCA Spokane
For Karli Ingersoll, pursuing her passion is a way of life, and for over a decade she has done just that—followed her passion while working tirelessly to create opportunities for other artists across the region to do the same. As an advocate in every facet of the arts community, Karli has been a mover and a shaker, supporting local artists by providing space, encouragement, and opportunity in addition to maintaining her own vibrant practice. She has been a fierce and effective advocate for arts and culture throughout Spokane and the Inland Northwest Region.
Karli partnered with her husband Caleb to co-found the Bartlett, an all-ages venue that quickly became the heart and soul of the Spokane music scene. Through this venue and their newest music venue, Lucky You Lounge, Karli has recruited, promoted, and encouraged queer artists and artists of color, highlighted local talent, and developed a space of opportunity and presence for emerging artists. In a male dominated industry, she has been a beacon of support for female artists and has contributed to the growth and vibrancy of the local music scene in Spokane. As an arts advocate, she has pushed local newspapers to provide more locally-focused coverage and has fostered a music ecosystem that is supportive, collaborative, and willing to take risks.
Karli has served on the Spokane Arts Commission for 6 years, becoming a widely respected leader. Using her expertise in marketing, visual art, music, and event planning, she further advocates on behalf of arts and culture in our region. Additionally, she writes and curates a blog called Collect, which is focused on showcasing local creativity and talent across all art mediums. Through this platform she has reached a broader community with live videos called “Collect Sessions” and hosts secret shows that bring new, exciting talent into the spotlight. In addition to this work, Karli contributes to the visual arts through her freelance graphic design work at local award-winning advertising agency Chapter & Verse.
Karli is a role model for breaking a path and bringing others along with her. Her ability to dream big while remaining grounded and active are dynamic attributes that allow her to see those dreams become reality. She is committed to growth in the arts community and also as an artist and individual; constantly assessing and reassessing her knowledge and motivation, she inspires others through her balanced work ethic. In addition to her willingness to encourage and advocate for other artists, Karli has maintained her own practice as a musician through her bands Super Sparkle and Cathedral Pearls, and her graphic design, letter work, and painting have become part of the backdrop of downtown Spokane. In 2019, she launched a solo project, Windoe, with the release of her album “Great Prize.” Through this project, she was able to reconnect with her passion for writing and making music along with the fearlessness and vulnerability she experienced as an artist at the beginning of her career.
Karli believes in the value of the creative process and seeks to support others in achieving fulfillment through their craft. She is truly an example of a leader. In a 2019 article for the Spokesman Review, Karli states, “I see it as so valuable to do things that you’re passionate about,” and in her song “Slow it Down”, she croons “Slow, Slow it down, Keep your feet on the ground.” This dynamic commitment to living her passion and supporting others in fulfillment of their passions while maintaining her ‘feet on the ground’ approach to getting things done makes Karli the powerhouse she has become in contributing to the arts in our region. YWCA Spokane is honored to present Karli Ingersoll with the 2020 Women of Achievement Award for Arts and Culture.
Nueva CAMPAÑA UNA MISIÓN de la YWCA
Una celebración de dos meses de quienes viven la misión de la YWCA de eliminar el racismo y empoderar a las mujeres.
Esta campaña honrará a nuestras ganadoras del premio Mujeres de Logros 2020 e invitará a la comunidad a aceptar el desafío Aprender y Dar de la YWCA centrado en inspirar cambios durante el Mes de Acción contra la Violencia Doméstica.
Del 1 de septiembre al 31 de octubre de 2020, la campaña UNA MISIÓN de la YWCA servirá para celebrar a las mujeres líderes en nuestra comunidad, crear conciencia sobre las experiencias complejas de los sobrevivientes de violencia doméstica y buscar recaudar $275,000. Las ganancias recaudadas apoyan los servicios de YWCA Spokane para víctimas de violencia doméstica y sus hijos, incluido refugio de emergencia, asesoramiento, servicios legales, preparación laboral, cuidado infantil y programas de prekínder para niños de bajos ingresos y sus familias.
Please join us as we celebrate Kari and the other 2020 award honorees through this new campaign.

Acerca de YWCA Spokane
Durante 117 años, YWCA Spokane ha ayudado a mujeres y niños a superar barreras sociales, económicas y personales para lograr sus objetivos y lograr una vida más saludable y plena. Hoy en día, las áreas de enfoque incluyen el apoyo a las víctimas de violencia doméstica por parte de parejas íntimas, la promoción de la educación infantil temprana y el enfrentamiento de problemas de justicia social y racial que impactan negativamente a nuestros clientes y nuestra comunidad.
En 2019, YWCA atendió a más de 17.000 mujeres, niños y familias. Los servicios incluyen un continuo de apoyo integral: línea de ayuda las 24 horas y refugio seguro, centro de asesoramiento, servicios de salud mental, defensa infantil, asistencia legal civil, defensa legal y defensa del empoderamiento económico. El Programa de Asistencia y Educación para la Primera Infancia (ECEAP) de la YWCA proporciona a niños de 3 y 4 años las habilidades sociales y de aprendizaje necesarias para un ingreso exitoso al jardín de infantes.
Al trabajar en las intersecciones de la desigualdad, la pobreza y la violencia doméstica, YWCA Spokane puede alterar patrones sociales de trauma de larga data. Para obtener más información, eche un vistazo a nuestro Informe anual de impacto 2019.
