RefugeFest Campout

Aug 13-15th, 2021

Squire Creek Park

We are thrilled to host Refuge in-person at the beautiful Squire Creek Park in Arlington, WA. Who’s ready? We ready! Ready to gather again and enjoy time together in community. COVID is still real out here. We will be enacting COVID precautions, including social distancing, so in-person spots are limited. Our guidelines are shared on the Refuge FAQ page, check it out to see how we can work together to make this as safe an experience as possible. 

RefugeFest Camp-in

Sept 17-19th, 2021

Hopin platform

While we are excited to gather in person, we know that everyone does not have time and resources to attend in person. So, we are thrilled to continue to host our virtual camp-in. Back for the second year, RefugeFest Camp-in will host a variety of engaging workshops, artists, films, and more that highlight BIPOC connecting with the outdoors.
