While January in Seattle tends to be grey and rainy, curators Susan Robb, Sierra Stinson and Jim Demetre are bringing a forecast of illumination and warmth to Ballard this weekend with their ONN/OF art exhibition and light festival.

Housed in Ballard's The Sweater Factory, ONN/OF is a weekend-long event of visual art, performance, installation, projection, music, food and drink, and workshops surrounding “light”.

Born from 2011's La Niña-drenched winter weather, the curators aim to create an environment "that not only lets people escape the cold and solitude that comes with Seattle’s winter season but to build a warm and energizing experience that might produce enough radiance to help see Seattle through the rest of the winter," according to the website.

Festival hours go from 4 p.m. until 12 a.m. on Saturday, and noon till 7 p.m. on Sunday.
Special events and workshops will be held at various times throughout the festival, check the website at http://www.onnof.us for the full schedule.

The Sweater Factory is located at 1415 NW 52st, across from the Bardahl Oil sign.
