Northwest Recess 2017
August 10-13
Lookout Arts Quarry | Outside Bellingham, WA
Registration is Open!
Northwest, our favorite Recess! Or, that's just what we say about all of them... As usual, the inspiring Lookout Arts Quarry plays our host: a magical setting of an 86 acre rock quarry turned circus community south of Bellingham, WA. The days will be filled with swimming and cliff-jumping in the flooded quarry and hiking in the thousands of acres of surrounding national forest! The nights will be filled with dancing in the circus warehouse, the Recess Bus, as well as the legendary floating dance floor that Recess helped custom build four years ago. This, all alongside the usual hallmarks of Recess: artistically-driven parties with Fusion and Blues music bumping until well past sunrise and a radically inclusive ethic that can't help but inspire.
