NIHON/WA: JAPANESE HERITAGE—WASHINGTON ARTISTS
White River Valley Museum
Nihon/WA invites viewers to experience a wide spectrum of work created by artists of Japanese heritage in the Puget Sound region and see how each has chosen to include or step beyond heritage and history in their own content and style. From the minimalist color fields of Frank OkadaÂ’s canvases and the bronze elegance of Gerard TsutakawaÂ’s sculptures, to the refined cut paper work of Aki Sogabe and the pioneering ceramics of Patti Warashina, this exhibit has a lot to express.

The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee
Auburn Ave Theater
Six young people in the throes of puberty, overseen by grown-ups who barely managed to escape childhood themselves, learn that winning isnÂ’t everything and that losing doesn't necessarily make you a loser. The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee is a hilarious tale of overachieversÂ’ angst chronicling the experience of six adolescent outsiders vying for the spelling championship of a lifetime. The show's Tony Award winning creative team has created the unlikeliest of hit musicals about the unlikeliest of heroes: a quirky yet charming cast of outsiders for whom a spelling bee is the one place where they can stand out and fit in at the same time.
