A mile from the Pacific Cannery Lofts, students and artists will find The Crucible, a nonprofit that in their words is an "educational facility that fosters a collaboration of Arts, Industry and Community. Through training in the fine and industrial arts, The Crucible promotes creative expression, reuse of materials, and innovative design while serving as an accessible arts venue for the general public."


From Fire Arts Festivals to Open Houses, the Crucible is hard not to be drawn to. For the next two nights they are celebrating their 9th anniversary with a wide range of awing entertainment.
