August 25, 2023 @ 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm
$25.00Join us for a casual, ticketed, evening at the beautiful Blaine Boating Center on Marine Drive as we kick off our Opening Night, August 25, from 6:00-9:00 p.m.
Your tickets can be purchased online, giving you entrance to the Boating Center, a glass of wine or a local beer, and nosh menu. During the evening you will have the chance to meet elite artists from the area and purchase their work all in one venue!
This event will include:
- Fantastic Silent Auction featuring many desirable items
- Wine Pull – Ever taken a chance on a Wine Pull? There will be fine wines from California and Oregon, as well as Lake Chelan, Bellingham, and Blaine. Bottles are wrapped in gift bags disguising their identity. Each one is valued at $25 and above – up to $90! Guests purchase a numbered cork and win the corresponding bottle of wine, to be taken home at the end of the event. Typically this part of the auction sells out quickly. Entry tickets will be sold at the door – $25 each, or 3 for $60.
- Possibly a few surprises which are sure to be a hit.
Saturday and Sunday, August 26th and 27th, are FREE self-guided tour days from 10:00-5:00 held at private studios, the Blaine Boating Center, and the Pavilion on H Street.
An interactive map is available here. Printed programs will be available at Opening Night and the Blaine Visitors Center.
