About this event
Celebrate the launch of two new exhibits! Featured artists and contributors will be on site to share about their work and the exhibit development.
Light in the Dark
Light in the Dark celebrates illumination, bringing five light artists to our windows. Pieces range in materials from weaving to paper mache and will be suspended from the ceiling, viewable through our windows all winter, bringing extra light to Olympia’s streets during the darkest months of the year.

Mapping Olympia
Walk our hallway gallery between two walls of maps, from 1841 explorers’ charts to Tom Boucher's Psychogeographic Atlas of Olympia, and learn how maps have helped people find their way, claim land, and imagine Olympia into being. Mapping Olympia features maps you can touch, listen to, and collaborate to create.
