Davina and the Vagabonds: A Vagabond Holiday @ Federal Way Performing Arts & Events Center
Dec 9 @ 3:00 pm

Celebrate the season with a sassy holiday concert that blends blues, swing, and New Orleans Jazz.

Winter Solstice Festival @ Lakewold Gardens
Dec 14 @ 5:00 pm – 8:00 pm

The Winter Solstice (or Midwinter) marks the shortest day and longest night of the year, bringing with it the promise of increased sunlight in the days ahead. It is a time to embrace the darkness, connect with nature and honor the changing of the seasons as a reminder that every ending is also a new beginning.

In honor of the occasion, Lakewold Gardens will present a celebration of light featuring art, music and literature from diverse traditions. Festival guests will celebrate in the cozy, festively decorated Wagner House, enjoy live music by local musicians, participate in a luminary making activity, take evening walks in the darkened winter gardens, listen to dramatic readings of solstice-themed poems and short stories by Creative Colloquy (Thursdays only), and experience Coming to Light, a new exhibit by the Contemporary QuiltArt Association, with each work inspired by the theme of light.
