WEEKEND: Sequim Art Walk tonight features the color white

Today, tonight signify Friday, June 6.

SEQUIM — It’s First Friday Art Walk time again tonight, as downtown galleries, shops and cafes stay open from 5 p.m. till 8 p.m. with art shows, music and refreshments.

And like every month, art walkers are encouraged to dress or accessorize in the color theme: white, for fresh canvases, open minds and perhaps June brides.
