Depot Arts Center’s Garden Art Fair returns for a sixth year in historic Anacortes on Saturday, April 25 and Sunday, April 26, from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. both days. Whether it’s for indoor gardens, outdoor gardens or the gardens of our imaginations, inspiration and opportunities for creative gardening and outdoor living abound.
Visitors enjoy a series of outdoor display gardens specially created for the show. From small space and container gardens to larger designs with special features, see what’s possible when plants co-mingle with fertile imaginations.
This year the show will spill out into the avenue between 6th and 7th Streets, making even more space for booths and displays.
‘We’re focusing on ‘green gardening’ this year,” says Maria Petrish, Depot Art Center Board Chairperson. “We’ve added more organic and composting products, organic garden starts and other supplies to make gardening more successful, healthy and satisfying. No compromising on the aesthetics though; art and beauty are just as much a part of Mother Nature, so we also have a wonderful sampling of Washington–made garden art to enhance the inherent beauty.”
Outdoor sculptures by Seattle-based glass artist Merrilee Moore and local Anacortes artist Arnie Garborg are crowd-pleasing examples of how modern gardens can be adorned. For more information, call (360) 293-3663 or visit www.depotartscenter.org http://www.depotartscenter.org/
