★ COVID POLICY UPDATE - 11/15/21 ★

We are very excited to welcome back the South Whidbey High School Jazz Band Concert to WICA this December.

Our Covid 19 policy for the SWHS Jazz performance will be as follows: 

WICA asks that all guests 18+ show proof of covid vaccination, or proof of a negative Covid test within 3 days. All guests will be required to wear a mask at all times while inside the theater. The WICA seating arrangement will be at its current level of fifty percent capacity with our new state-of-the-art HVAC.

By presenting these two shows we are supporting the schools and school age children in the South Whidbey Community. These guidelines are for children focused performances only. Please be aware there will be unvaccinated and untested 18 and younger in the audience and on stage. WICA continues to take the threat of Covid 19 seriously and advises audience members to maintain distancing and mandatory mask wear. No eating or drinking in the theater. Any performance without children or affiliated with the school is under our stated policy proof of vaccine/or testing for all. Once again as the winter progresses we will see if guidelines can change or they must remain the same to keep the theater open and our audience feeling safe to attend.

LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

Whidbey Island Center for the Arts would like to begin by acknowledging that we gather on the ancestral homelands, originally known as Tscha-kole-chy (SHA-KOL-CHI) in Lushootseed (LU-SHOOT-SEED), of the Coastal Salish Peoples, on the lands of the lower Skagit, Tulalip (tuh·lay·luhp), Swinomish (SWIN-ə-mish), Snohomish (snō-hō-mish), Stillaguamish (still-uh-GWAH-mish), and Suquamish (soo-kwah-mish), who have lived in the Salish Sea basin since time immemorial and have hunted, fished, gathered, and taken care of these lands.

We respect their sovereignty, their right to self-determination, and we honor their sacred spiritual connection with the land and water.

Please join us in expressing our deepest respect and gratitude to the indigenous people of this territory and for their enduring care and protection of the land in which we currently occupy and share through the Treaty of Point Elliott signed by 82 tribes in Múckl-te-óh (Mukilteo) on January 22, 1855.
