The SpongeBob Musical @ New Prospect Theatre

Bellingham Arts Academy for Youth presents The SpongeBob Musical. Dive into this stunning all-singing, all-dancing, dynamic stage show! When the citizens of Bikini Bottom discover that a volcano will soon erupt and destroy their humble home, SpongeBob and his friends must come together to save the fate of their undersea world. When lives hang in the balance and all hope seems lost, a most unexpected hero rises up. The power of optimism really can save the world!

With irresistible characters and magical music, The SpongeBob Musical will make a splash with audiences young and old. Performances feature BAAY students ages 13-17 and will run from June 7-8 and June 14-15 at the New Prospect Theatre. Tickets and more information at baay.org.

Summer Foraging & Outdoor Cooking with Northwest Natura @ Maple Falls

Jul 6 @ 1:00 pm – 5:30 pm
Summer Foraging & Outdoor Cooking with Northwest Natura @ Maple Falls

Please Join Naturalist, Jazmen Yoder on a day of foraging out in the woods. This course will take place on private and public property approximately 2 miles from of Maple Falls. Location is subject to change based on seasonal anomalies such as delayed ripening.

We will be foraging berries and other edible or medicinal plants, in addition to any edible mushrooms we may find. For each species, expect short discourse on its edibility or medicinal properties, how to prepare it for medicine or food, and information on its ecology.

Expect moderate walking/hiking with frequent stops, self-led exploration, and a lesson in ethical foraging on public lands.

Using some of our foraged finds, we will cook or bake together over a fire, and we will make a delicious, ice-cold wildcrafted spritzer to enjoy in the summer heat.

This will be a fun outing!

(Please note the location is subject to change based on available plant forage. You will be notified ahead of time if anything changes, and location will not be anywhere outside of Whatcom County or too far off the original target. Thank you in advance for your flexibility and understanding.)

Things to bring with you to class:

Dress for the weather
Snacks and water
Foraging Basket or Bag
Mess kit (plate/bowl, fork/spoon, cup)
Notebook and pen (optional)
Camera (optional)
Your favorite field guide (optional)
Bug spray (optional)
