About the Events Calendar
We like having an events calendar to complement our website — and it keeps us up to date on events we might want to do as well!
Of course, there are a LOT of events happening and trying to curate every event of any kind would be a Sisyphean task!
On our calendar, we try to curate, and keep updated, annually recurring events which can be from around the PNW, but tend to be more in western Washington as that’s where we live.
We also accept non-recurring local events from PNW-based event organizers. Generally, we’ll keep these on our calendar until sometime after they end and then remove them — but may keep and update them if we find they’re something that recurs again and again.
If you’re an event organizer who regularly adds events and wants to make a small contribution to keeping this calendar going, consider buying me a coffee (note that we share our button with our “sister” photography site, PNWLens.
