SpringHill Suites Art of Local ArtNight!

SpringHill Suites Bellingham is partnering with Allied Arts of Whatcom County to bring the local art scene to hotel guests and the surrounding community during its 4th annual ArtNight event Friday, October 20, from 5:00 p.m. until 8:00 p.m.

“SpringHill is a brand that is all about the arts, and it shows right when you come in the lobby,” shared General Manager Keith Coleman. The space itself is artfully designed, encouraging guests and visitors to get creative. ArtNight further elevates the space by transforming part of the hotel into a gallery for an evening.

“ArtNight is a relaxed chance to dress up a little and go look at great art and enjoy some amazing local music,” shared Coleman. The evening is completely free and includes appetizers, delicious drink specials from the Chuckanut Lobby Bar and live music performed by Whitney Mongé.

ArtNight gives hotel guests the unique opportunity to connect with the local community and appreciate great art together. Past art pieces have included jewelry, metal work, paintings and photography. This year, artists have been asked to bring a current piece so guests can see each artist’s process live and in person. While artists have until September 30 to submit their request to show their work, we have confirmed several artists for this years’ event, including (WhatcomTalk’s own) Kevin Forrester Coleman, Jessie Chandler, Peter James and Suzannah Gusukuma.
