Artstravaganza

Artstravaganza is coming to the South Puget Sound Community College on Saturday, March 19. The arts and crafts fair will take place from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the college’s Lacey campus.

The event will feature approximately 20 vendors from the community each with unique arts and crafts. Booths will line the hallways of the campus to help create a street-fair style atmosphere. The event is being put on by SPSCC with support from the Thurston County Economic Development Council.

The fair is the culminating event of the Art Entrepreneurship Series that debuted this year at the SPSCC Lacey Campus through the Continuing Education Program and the EDC. The goal of the series is to provide independent artists in the community with the skills and information needed to run a small business. Artists who participate in the series will then be able to determine whether they prefer to turn their art into a full-time effort, or have it as a side business.

The event is free to attend.
