Everett, WALocal News

The APEX Art and Cultural Center in Everett, set to launch on February 18, 2023, aims to become a hub for urban art and music after delays caused by a windstorm. John Carswell purchased the historic Masonic Temple to house the Dog Town Collection, recognized as the world's largest graffiti and urban art collection. APEX will also provide diverse spaces for music and cultural events, enhancing Everett's artistic landscape. The opening night will feature Hell’s Belles, an all-female AC/DC tribute band, with tickets available at $25 online and $30 at the door. Previously purchased tickets from a canceled November sneak-peek will remain valid.

The Everett Music Initiative (EMI), known for promoting local music since 2012, will collaborate with APEX to host the event. EMI has organized over 400 events in the region, emphasizing its commitment to building community through music. The introduction of APEX is expected to significantly enrich Everett's cultural offerings and nightlife.
