Bainbridge Gives
We’re having great success inspiring passion for science through the lens of astronomy for kids! BPAA’s STEAM Program for Kitsap Schools, led by our Programming Coordinator Eleanor Uuyek, is attracting lots of interest from teachers and students alike. You can help boost our programs, including planetarium shows and science education events for kids through Bainbridge Gives, Bainbridge Community Foundation’s Community Grants Cycle!
Kitsap Great Give: Thank You
Thank you to all who came together during the 2026 Kitsap Great Give! Your gifts more than DOUBLED the total from last year to support BPAA!
A Window for the Library!
Thanks to a grant from the Rotary Club, we will be installing a new window in the library, in an existing opening that’s been hiding behind the bookshelves.
