ABOUT FORT WORDEN Fort Worden and its epic natural setting of Port Townsend—dubbed “the Paris of the Pacific Northwest” by Sunset Magazine—is the kind of destination that stays with one for a lifetime. Originally designed as a military base to protect Puget Sound, Fort Worden has evolved into an iconic and cherished state park and lifelong learning center with accommodations, venues, restaurants, and catering. Fort Worden’s magnificent setting encompasses 434 acres with 12 miles of forested hiking trails, two miles of walkable saltwater beaches and commanding views of the Olympic and Cascade mountains as well as views across the Strait of Juan De Fuca to the San Juan Islands. The Fort features 73 historic buildings with four museums and creative spaces for art and educational programs, yoga, woodworking and more. Eagle-eyed observers will recognize the Fort as the filming location for An Officer and a Gentleman. For the past 13 years, STG has partnered with Centrum and Fort Worden to provide the DANCE This! Camp at Centrum, a week-long overnight dance program for high school students to study a wide range of styles and techniques in a supportive, yet challenging atmosphere. ### Rachel Liuzzi (She/Her) Public Relations & Promotions Manager e: rachell@stgpresents.org SEATTLE THEATRE GROUP MOORE PARAMOUNT NEPTUNE A NONPROFIT ARTS ORGANIZATION , , STGPRESENTS.ORG <https://www.facebook.com/seattletheatregroup> <https://www.linkedin.com/company/seattle-theatre-group/> <https://twitter.com/stgpresents> <https://www.youtube.com/user/seattletheatregroup> <https://open.spotify.com/user/mbulu2t2tvfz0uj94pi2krs1w> This e‑mail and any files transmitted with it are intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain confidential material and/or material protected by law.
