site scout ~ 3 hrs

One of WCAA's projects is called Music Nights: 6 venues (bars and restaurants) hosting free local music events. Amy, Peter and I (Manit had prior commitments) went down to get a feel of the neighborhood, the Music Night project/event, and to take photographs for possible image resources for the site.

Result: several good photographs, a better idea of the WCAA's mission and White Center as a community. Music Nights was fairly small, most likely not well advertised.
