STORIES from BOISE
By Sonya Feibert Kuhn Picture this meet-cute: our main characters have just moved to Boise, each ready to start the next chapter of their lives. They meet at a local brewery during an artist market and connect over a shared love of reading and the highs and lows of entrepreneurship. Soon they start a banned […]
Everyone is creative, and the arts serve everyone. This is the guiding belief behind Catalyst Arts Collaborative. Affectionately called “The Cat,” Catalyst Arts Collaborative is an art studio and community space on the Central Bench at 6427 W Ustick Rd in Boise. It’s not exactly a school, but on any given day there’s 4-10 art […]
If you’ve ever popped into Art Source Gallery, you’ve probably realized right away that it isn’t the kind of gallery where you have to whisper, keep your hands behind your back, or pretend you “know art.”Instead, it’s a working, artist-run gallery that’s been quietly shaping Boise’s art community for more than 30 years. Built by artists […]
This story was written by Julie Sarasqueta Trying to explain the Idaho Shakespeare Festival to out-of-towners is, frankly, impossible.

Which is a shame, because real rosé is crisp, complex, endlessly food-friendly, and one of the best summer […]
This weekend is filled with wine + cider anniversary parties that pair nicely with free fries (sign me up 🍟) and live music. From Boise Things Bogus Basin Mountain Report Family-friendly summer activities, The Basin Gravity Park, cross-country mountain bike and hiking trails at Bogus Basin open next Friday, June 19th! Be sure to save […]
One of the best parts of living in Boise is everywhere you can get to from it. They say Boise is the most geographically isolated metropolitan area in the country. But that “isolation” is one of the things that makes it so freaking cool. Drive a few hours in any direction and you’re completely immersed […]

After years of freelance writing for other people, I wanted to write stories in my own voice and about things I actually cared about. I started From Boise to explore things happening around town, connect with people doing cool and creative work, and capture all the little things that make Boise such a cool place to live.
