Welcome to AVA’s monthly calendar of events. Take a peek and plan your “stay-cation” or next visit to our region. The city’s most notable annual events include historic home tours, outdoor summer concerts and movies under the stars, and the PNW Art and Air Festival.
While COVID restrictions have eased, there are some exceptions, and masks will still be required in healthcare settings. Since some locations may still have flexible hours, we encourage visitors to call ahead, be patient, flexible and kind,– and mask up if asked to do so, fully vaccinated or not.
*Note for event organizers: If you’d like to have your event listed on the AVA calendar, head over to our contact page and submit your event to us.

This true story about 19th-century astronomer Henrietta Leavitt, explores a woman’s place in society during a time of immense scientific discoveries when women’s ideas were dismissed until men claimed credit for them. Social progress, like scientific progress, can be hard to see when one is trapped among earthly complications; Henrietta Leavitt and her female peers believed in both, and their dedication changed the way we understand both the heavens and Earth.
