The Raccoon Arts Collective presents Olympia's first annual Summer Squash! From Wednesday June 24th through Sunday June 28th, the community will join in a celebration of all that we have to offer. Integrating performance and participation we hope to deconstruct the barrier between life and art. Working and playing together we form a stronger and more meaningful community. For five days, in formal venues, as well as houses and gardens, Olympia will actualize this greater vision of itself. Summer Squash incorporates visual art, performance, music, athletics, gardening, teaching and learning into a single event. We hope to achieve a breadth and scope that will engage all members of the Olympia area. Our days will be filled with murals, sports and workshops; our nights with theater, dance and music, everyday unique and inspiring. This is an event for the people, by the people, of the people. Our goal is to support community members in seeing their visions become reality. Motivating each other we can achieve more than we would alone. What will you do to be a part of the fun?
