Allison Preisinger

An evening designed to foster curiosity and creativity, "An Interactive Evening Suitable for Introverts" invites guests (introverted, extroverted, or anyone in between) to enjoy a night of music, poetry, and hands-on art—all at their own pace. Hosted by performing songwriter Allison Preisinger, this event at the Tacoma Armory’s Roosevelt Room on June 29th is the perfect opportunity to explore your creative side in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere, whether you prefer to observe or actively participate. Inspired by the unique collaboration between poetry and music in Preisinger’s latest album release entitled “Standing Steady”, the evening will feature live performances from local artists, including singer-songwriters Allison Preisinger, Victoria Fragoso, and poetry readings by Mari G. Attendees can enjoy this diverse array of artistic expression while immersing themselves in their own creative process. The event will offer a range of interactive experiences. The highlight of the evening will be an Abstract Art workshop, led by Melodie Knight and a Water Color workshop, led by Swan Creek Art Academy. All necessary materials for the workshop will be provided, and participants will have the chance to take home their finished works. Additional materials for drawing, coloring, and other artistic activities will also be available throughout the evening, making it easy to find a creative outlet that suits your mood. This event is designed with introverts in mind, (but is open to all!) offering a low-pressure environment to engage with art, music, and poetry in whatever way feels most comfortable. Whether you wish to simply observe, create at your own pace, or participate in the workshop, the evening promises to inspire curiosity, connection, and creativity. Light snacks, beverages, and merchandise will be available for purchase at the event. Event Details: Date: Sunday, June 29, 2025 Time: 5:00pm Performers: Allison Preisinger, Victoria Fragoso, Mari G.
