Green Bluff Pumpkin Patch Guide! Looking for the perfect fall day in Spokane?

Here’s your go-to guide for the best pumpkin patches in Green Bluff! Whether you’re in it for the pumpkins, the corn mazes, or those delicious fall treats, these spots have something for everyone.

Its First Friday! The perfect day to head downtown to explore and celebrate art and local artists. We met up with Stacie Boyer and Jennifer Batey Gilbert as they finished their mural

For more than a decade, murals have helped transform downtown Spokane’s walls, alleys and public spaces into places of creativity, connection and storytelling. What began as a collection of individual public-art projects has grown into a more intentional effort to use art as a tool for placemaking, cultural expression and downtown revitalization.

After exploring the Downtown Spokane Mural Art Tour, head on over to 314 W Riverside for Terrain 17 from 5pm - 12am, The region’s largest multimedia art and music event. From painting to poetry, performance art, dance and film and a full musical line-up, and its all FREE!
