Celebration of the Arts

What is The Light Side of Art
It is the art that makes us laugh out loud, that delights us with its beauty, that sparks our own creativity, and that illuminates the things we value most. The light side of art is earnest and generous, and yes, sometimes it’s a little bit cheesy. This is the art that reminds us – even in hard times – that truth, goodness, and beauty still have the power to move us at our deepest being. 

Support the PAFAC
From October 10–17 our friends near and far were invited to support the PAFAC with a donation of $30 or more to gain entry to an evening of live entertainment and inspiration.
 The evening's event was emceed by Ginny Holladay, local actor & storyteller.

  • Katherine Shaughnessy (Boise, ID), artist

  • Ross Brown (Diamond Point), artist & educator

  • Sarah Jane (Port Angeles), PAFAC Gallery & Program Director
