ARTSPIRE 2025

Artspire is an all-inclusive, free community art event that attracts, engages and connects our diverse community through meaningful arts experiences, including visual, interactive, performing, literary arts and dance. Produced and funded by the Pump House Regional Arts Center.

It’s always a treat when Pump House Executive Director, Allison Krzych, visits the Morning Buzz! This time she shared what’s on tap for this year’s event:

They’re also still looking for volunteers (did someone say FREE T-SHIRT?!) You can sign up HERE.

Event highlights include interactive art activities for all ages and abilities with local non-profits and businesses, live music, and dance. This year’s event also features an Alebrijes cultural immersion workshop with Mexican Folk Art collective:
