Are You Looking for an Arts Community on the Eastside?
NEXT UP: Art as Catalyst for Change
Join us in North Bend at the Snoqualmie Valley Center for Creativity from 5-8PM on Friday, January 23, 2026!
Location: 1533 Bendigo Blvd North, North Bend, WA
This Creative Summit will include a social hour, show and tell, and a thought-provoking panel discussion around the theme of “Art as Catalyst for Change.” In times of deepest desperation, what can we expect from art and artists to help us through?
We are thrilled to be featuring some of our region’s inspiring leaders:
RITA MEHER - Co-Founder and Executive Director of Tasveer
BRIAN CARTER - Executive Director of 4Culture
RYAN DANIEL DOBSON - Wood Spoon Carver
You can sign up below - seating is limited, so please sign up in advance if you want to be guaranteed a seat!
In the meantime, enjoy some pictures of our first Creative Summit, in November 2025, where community came together to create a sculpture that will be displayed throughout King County libraries in 2026!
To register for this free event - scroll down!
If you want to “show” in the show and tell: please bring one work of art to display or perform* for the group, and if you like, you can ask for feedback. The artwork should somehow connect to the theme of “Art as Catalyst for Change.”
*All performances must be under 4 minutes including setup and takedown time. When you register, you must describe your show and tell performance if you are planning one - these may need to be limited based on available time, so register early to guarantee a spot! We aim to have a PA available with two microphones, although you should be prepared to perform unamplified to a welcoming and respectful audience.
