Art Week at the Y: Oct. 5th - 8th

Committed to providing programs that focus on spirit, mind and body, the YMCA of Pirce and Kitsap counties have added a new emphasis on the arts. To recognize the talent in our community, the YMCA is hosting “Y Arts Week” October 5th through the 8th.

Events throughout the week are open to the public and will include professional and emerging artist galleries, children’s visual arts galleries, hand-on art activities, workshops, and live performances by professional musicians and dancers, as well as the YMCA dance companies.

This is a great opportunity to enjoy many of the arts, get the family out into the community and learn more about the YMCA. Best of all it’s FREE (and you know how much we love FREE)
