We are thrilled to announce TARBOO: Pacific Northwest Music Fest, July 4th-6th at the Quilcene Lantern. Join us as we revel in 53 acres of rolling farm fields and towering forests with a locally-grown lineup of our region’s best musical artists!

For the last 4 months, we’ve been bustin’ our little behinds to get the Lantern up and running. 7 days a week, covered in sawdust, dirt, paint, and everything in between – we’ve poured our blood, sweat, and tears into this place…literally. The work is hard, but the immense reward will be filling the Lantern with incredible music and beautiful people. We can’t wait to see you there.

Thank you so much for the incredible poster .dunnington
