Art Walks, Farmers Markets, oh my!

This is one of my favorite times of year - when the Art Walks and Farmers Markets start (or it's less rainy when you participate!).

Here's a (non-comprehensive) list of some of our local ART WALKS and FARMERS MARKETS. I hope that you'll stop by to enjoy some of the wonderful creations made and grown in our local area. We truly are blessed with the bounty of creativity and natural beauty in our Northwest world.

Enjoy!
