Community Services/Non-Profits in Bainbridge Island, WA

“I couldn't fully imagine or appreciate what a Resource Network meant before the Bainbridge Artisans came together here. This is a truly incredible community asset. I've participated in a number of the studios: electronics, woodworking, kitchen arts, metal machining, and foundry skills. There are really top notch people here. I encourage anyone with a creative itch to get hands on at BARN”

“I came into PAWS in July to look at the cats available for adoption. I was able to pet all of the cats and quicky realized that Toonces was the cat that I wanted (loving, playful and beautiful). I looked around at other shelters but none I stuck out like him. I scheduled a meet and greet for him with Savannah, who was working that day. The meet and greet was successful. I filled out the paperwork and they loaned me a pet carrier to get him home. All of Toonces shots were up to date and I even got sent home with some food and one of his blankets. I also appreciate that PAWS pays for their first veterinary appointment. I didn't meet any staff except for Savannah, but she was wonderful. Savannah was very kind, talkative and helpful throughout the process.”

“I still remember the time when I went to island wood and how much fun I had. I really recommend going there?

“I love this place, we've had to bring a few roosters and they make it so easy, had to bring to 2 more, it's now $10 a bird, which I'm happy to do because I think it's a good cause. Lisa was the one who greeted me on site today and I was pretty frustrated about having to give them up, she was super sweet and defensive for us and helped me understand our Ag codes and rights. I felt relief & it was just nice to be understood. Thanks for your help!!!”

“We just had my son's birthday party there. I'll start off by saying the kids had a BLAST. We had ages 2 - 15 and they all stayed so busy playing between the two floors. There is many cool activities and stations. It was pretty crowded but it was a Saturday so that's expected. My only negative was the party room. we were moved into the art studio because it was raining and it was fit for toddlers. Tiny chairs and stools, very VERY limited space. There was about 20 of us and not a chance half of us could fit in there at a time. I feel like this place is Amazing For a visit to play, not quite spacious enough for large parties at the price of just under $300.”
