Downtown businesses and artists joined forces several years ago to make art available to all with the 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. First Friday Art Walk. From 5 p.m. to 5:30 p.m., join the artists’ reception, which offers snacks and wine at the art co-operative, Blue Whole Gallery, at 129 W. Washington St. The walk includes more than a dozen venues highlighting more area artists. Maps are available at participating businesses. It’s a great time to mingle, nosh and appreciate all the art downtown Sequim has to offer. Take in local artwork at Blue Whole Gallery on West Washington Street. The name of the gallery comes from the term pilots use to describe the “blue hole” in the skies above Sequim. The gallery has hosted workshops, demonstrations and exhibitions, and its artists have participated in many art and community events. Sequim also has a strong community theater in Olympic Theatre Arts, 414 N. Sequim Ave. “The Explorers Club” by Nell Benjamin is the fall production, running Oct. 20-Nov. 5 on the Main Stage. Performances are held at 7:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday evenings. Winter Main Stage shows include a Holiday Variety Show, Dec. 7-10; “The Nutcracker Ballet,” presented by the Sequim Ballet, Dec. 15-17; and “Time Stands Still” by Donald Margulies, Feb. 9-25. For more performance and ticket information, visit www.olympictheatre arts.org or phone the box office at 360-683-7326 between 1 p.m. and 5 p.m. Mondays through Fridays. Another downtown draw is the Sequim Farmers Market, every Saturday through Oct. 27. This pet-friendly market at Civic Center Plaza is abuzz with vendors selling locally caught fish and homegrown meats, fruits, vegetables, honey and crafts as musicians play lively tunes.
