Zombies, dance performances and a raffle of items donated by local businesses make up this year’s “Thrillingham,” held at 8:00 p.m. on Saturday, October 31 in Maritime Heritage Park near downtown Bellingham.
The community event is open to all ages, and “Thrillingham” invites those interested in learning the choreography to Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” to join a series of dance lessons in preparation for the Halloween performance.
The lessons are free to attend with a suggestion donation of $5 at each lesson, and all levels of dancing ability are welcomed. Each dance lesson will take place at LoveToMoveStudioZ, located at 311 East Holly Street.
The dates and times are as follows:
6:15 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. on Fridays, October 2, 9, 16, 23, and 30
10:15 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. on Sundays, October 11, 18, and 25
Community members may purchase raffle tickets to win items donated by local businesses at Lydia Place and The Bureau of Historical Investigation during the week of Halloween. Raffle items include tickets from The Upfront Theatre, classes at LoveToMoveStudioZ, a gift card to Black Drop Coffeehouse and more.
Proceeds from this year’s Thrillingham will be gifted to Lydia Place, a local non-profit offering transitional housing, emergency housing and other supportive service programs to homeless families in Whatcom County. To learn more about Lydia Place, please visit www.lydiaplace.org.
