At 29, We Still Shine

Description

Blue Whole Gallery is proud to announce the celebration of its 29th anniversary, marking nearly three decades of championing artists, fostering creativity, and enriching the cultural landscape of Sequim and the surrounding area.
Since opening its doors in 1997, Blue Whole Gallery has featured both emerging and established artists, showcasing diverse works across mediums and styles. Over the past 29 years, the gallery has built a reputation for thoughtful curation, innovative exhibitions, and a deep commitment to supporting the arts and the community of Sequim.
To commemorate this milestone, Blue Whole Gallery will host an anniversary exhibition, “At 29, We Still Shine,” opening First Friday, June 5th. The showcase will feature a collection of works from present gallery artists, highlighting the “Shine” of the gallery.
“This anniversary is not about looking back—it’s about honoring the artists, patrons, and community members who continue to make Blue Whole thrive,” said Barb Boerigter, founding member. “At 29, we still shine because of the passion and connection that art brings into people’s lives.”
The anniversary event will include an opening reception on June 5^th at 5pm, with opportunities to meet gallery artists, enjoy light refreshments, and engage with the stories behind the artwork.
