Art & Nature on the Olympic Peninsula

by Mary Jo on August 3rd, 2007

Labyrinth at PAFAC Art is where you find it.  Even in a forest just off the highway in Port Angeles on the Olympic Peninsula.

Webster’s Wood is a 5-acre forest containing over 100 magical works of art.  The rocks reveal secret messages, you’ll be stared down by painted eyes staring up at you from the roots of stately trees, and trees are alive with moving metal art.

Take your time wandering through the forest, an extension of the Port Angeles Fine Art Center, and sit, climb, gaze, and imagine as you enjoy the art in and of nature.

90-minute ranger guided tours are offered the first Saturday (10 am) and third Wednesday (2 pm) of every month.

Location:  Webster’s Wood, 1203 East Lauridsen Blvd. (Port Angeles)

Dates & Times:  11 am - 5 pm, Tuesday - Sunday (March - November); 10 a - 4 pm, Tuesday - Sunday (December - February) 

Admission:  No charge

Webster's Wood at PAFC Port Angeles is on the Olympic Peninsula, accessible by car ferry across Puget Sound (30 minute crossing) and then one and a half hour of driving.  Or, you can drive around through Tacoma, an approximate 2 1/2 hour trip.  Taking the ferry makes a great day trip.
