The Sammamish Arts Commission will offer the community an opportunity to meet this year’s art commissioners, learn about art opportunities planned for the city and provide a chance to sign up to volunteer for a variety of events.

The Arts Commission “Meet and Greet” will go from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m., Jan. 23 at Sammamish City Hall.

“Studies prove that a happy community is one that offers an environment vibrant with arts opportunities ranging from visual arts to music, theatre, literature, dance and the spoken word,” said Daphne Robinson, arts commission chair. “Our Arts Commission continues to strive to engage, involve, inspire and inform through the diverse arts programs and events that we host. We are hoping that Sammamish residents are looking to give back to this community by serving as volunteers.”

The SAC creates programs with a focus on fine and cultural arts. Community members interested in helping can anticipate working on a classical music concert, a performance by the ACT Theater, the annual art fair, a poetry event and other activities.
