Port Angeles Fine Art Center
An Elevated Evening at the Esther Webster Estate
6-9PM | FRI. SEPT. 12TH
Join our community of supporters, art lovers, and art makers as we gather for an elevated evening at the Port Angeles Fine Arts Center to enjoy unique art, catered light bites, and a no host bar of signature cocktails/mocktails in celebration of the transformative power of visual and community inspired arts.
This year we are offering an in-person silent art auction, an online auction, and an amazing selection of art experiences from around the PNW.

ENSURING ACCESS FOR ALL
Last year through our programs, we directly connected nearly 8,000 people to the arts and supported more than 400 artists of all ages in exhibiting and selling their work through the gallery, gift store, Wintertide Maker's Market, and park. We additionally welcomed 30,000 visits to the Sculpture Park!
As we've grown and built new programs, we've done so with a lens for the needs of our community, particularly those with the least access to the arts. Given that nearly 60% of our school district population lives at or below the poverty line, we've prioritize free or affordable opportunities to ensure access for all. Last school year we hosted 18 free field trips for local schools, provided 58 art education sessions in classrooms serving nearly 300 students, engaged over 5,000 people in free gallery exhibits and welcomed 900 people to our two free festivals. To sustain these programs we are holding our annual fundraiser and ask that you join us for an evening of art that will make a meaningful impact for our organization.
The Music
Will Jevne of Sweater Weather String Band will keep the music moving throughout the evening along with friends.
The Food & Drink
We are thrilled to once again partner with Goat and Radish/ Basecamp to bring you delicious appetizers and bites! Signature cocktails and mocktails will also be available at our no host bar.
The Art
This year we are excited to offer a curated selection of artwork by former Sequim Resident Anne Goetzman, several originals by Esther Webster, and a variety of amazing art experiences from around the PNW that will be available as part of our in person silent auction and online auction.
