In partnership with Fort Worden State Park, Centrum serves as a gathering place for creative artists and learners
of all ages seeking extraordinary cultural enrichment.
OUR MISSION is to foster creative experiences that change lives. From exploring the roots of the blues or jazz, to the traditions of American fi ddle music or our award-winning writers’ workshops—Centrum’s summer festivals transform the majestic, inspired setting of Fort Worden State Park into a unique arts destination.
JOIN US and discover a full array of mainstage performances, nightclub events, vital literary readings, lectures, dances and more.
OUR PROGRAMS welcome participants from across the globe. Last year alone we served individuals from 17 countries, 46 out of 50 states, and 77% of the counties in Washington. 27% of those we serve are age 18 or younger and our participants were aged 4 to 97!
We present our programs with support from the Washington State Arts Commission, State Parks Commission, the State Superintendent of Public Instruction, National Endowment for the Arts and the Fort Worden Public Development Authority. We thank the many donors and generous sponsors who support Centrum and our unique role in our Puget Sound community, and I hope you will too!
Please join us for cultural experiences you simply cannot fi nd anywhere else on earth. See you this summer at Centrum!
Welcome to Centrum’s 42nd Summer Season!

More than 30 faculty members from four different countries share a rich history and diverse styles of fiddle music with hundreds of participants in a weeklong, multi-generational workshop.
Classes, band labs, dances, concerts, open jams, and informal and spontaneous gatherings culminate in mainstage performances that welcome thousands of audience members to experience the tapestry of North American fiddle styles.
