FESTIVAL DAY 2025

2025 was the 2nd year of our festival and we made some changes based on what we learned from our inaugural event.  We needed a larger space and more parking, so we moved to North Kitsap High School and it was the right decision. We were able to set-up tents, to create a quiet room for Story Time, and to invite more nonprofits and community members to participate.

As you will see from the photos below, it was a fabulous day.
