Free Art Event at Third Thursday in Downtown Centralia @ Dawn's Delectables | Centralia | Washington | United States

On February 16, at Third Thursday in downtown Centralia, I’m offering an evening of Art Therapy. Two hours of FREE drawing exercises and sketching prompts.

You’ll need a couple of pencils, an eraser, and a sketchbook. That’s all!

Every level of artist is welcome. If you’re rusty, all the better.

We’ll do:

1. Warm-up scribbles
2. A review of simple shapes
3. Drawing prompts

Relax for two hours and get some drawing in with friends. In my opinion, there’s no better therapy.

No RSVP is needed.

Just wander in and join us.

Triad Arts Theater Gallery Reopening @ Triad Arts Theater Gallery
Jun 16 @ 4:00 pm – 8:00 pm
Triad Arts Theater Gallery Reopening @ Triad Arts Theater Gallery | Yelm | Washington | United States

The Triad Arts Theater is excited to announce the reopening of the Triad Arts Theater Gallery. The historic occasion will be commemorated with a new show entitled, “We Heart Art.” The show is a broad representation of artistic expression showcasing the local area’s many talented artists, poets and musicians. Attendees will enjoy a mix of eclectic art, poetry and music; the companionship of fellow art lovers and a sampling of light hors d’oeuvres.

The reopening of The Triad Arts Theater Gallery and the accompanying show are a momentous event for the theater and local community alike. “We heart art,” said Owner and Director of Arts, Cameron Jayne. “We’re having this beautiful gallery opening because it’s celebrating the incredible talent that exists in the Yelm community and the outer Yelm region. We have in the Puget Sound area the finest artists and musicians that money or soul or heart can ever buy.”

The Yelm area has been evolving into a blossoming art community over the last decade. Increasing numbers of artists, artisans and performers are now calling the area home and the town is blossoming creatively as a result. “I would like to say that having my own gallery in Baja, California, and a music venue in Las Vegas, Nevada, that had the finest musicians and performers – by far this Yelm community is like the Paris of the 18th century,” Jayne said. “I swear to God, these are the most incredible artists that you will ever see because they not only have a way to communicate their emotions but they resonate their frequency with paint and color. There’s passion to what they put in their presentations and there is a lot of consciousness and high thought in their work as well.”

Despite Yelm’s burgeoning artistic population, there has been a lack of artistic representation until now. “In this area there are no art galleries that represent these people and they need to have a home, a sanctuary that showcases what they do,” Jayne said. “The Triad Theater is that home.”

“We Heart Art” will be on display at The Triad Arts Theater Gallery from June 16th through July 2nd on weekends from 12:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. and weeknights during Triad events.
