This community events calendar is the place to find fun activities and things to do throughout Lewis County, including Centralia, Chehalis and beyond.
250 Years of our Nation to Celebrate! How we arrived in the great northwest? Local family history by one of their descendants.
Come and paint with Artvana at The Juice Box Public House, a family-friendly community hotspot in Centralia!
All skill levels are welcome. Your Artvana artist coach will guide you through each step of the painting and help you tap into your inner creativity. We’ll be painting the ‘Raining Stars’ artwork, so you’ll leave with your own original painting on canvas to bring home!
The Juice Box offers: CRAFT BEER, FUSION FOOD, INDIE MUSIC, LOCAL WINES, and MICRO SPIRITS in their warm, inviting atmosphere.
Drinks are not included. You must be 21+ to consume alcohol, though this is an all-ages brewery and class (Recommended for ages 12+ for painting).
Come relax, paint with us, and discover how creativity (and beer) can help you unwind and reduce stress this weekend.
Join us at China Creek to celebrate our earth by caring for this important salmon habitat! We will be picking up garbage, removing invasive weeds, planting native plants and mulching with compost. Hear from the Lewis County and Centralia Stream Teams, Lewis County Noxious Weed Board, Centralia Clean Team and the City of Centralia on topics like composting, stream restoration, community clean-ups and how YOU can get involved in local environmental stewardship. Fun for the whole family!
M’Lee Barlow, granddaughter to Lola Bowen Stancil who spent many months during the bicentennial (1976) on the Oregon Trail will be retelling her story. A journey her ancestors took in 1843 to settle in our area. A talk with many supporting artifacts.
