❤️ What's happening this weekend in Spokane

Good morning, Spokane!

Good morning, Spokane! Some weekends are just about getting out of the house. This one gives us a chance to show up for our neighbors, too: local galleries are turning Friday night into wildfire relief, then Saturday brings Velocity, the Indians, and one last movie under the Pavilion lights.
