Excursions
Adventure awaits! ALL excursions are your chance to explore beyond Bellingham alongside curious, like-minded companions. This year's lineup is extraordinary. Catch two Bard productions this August, then dive into Seattle's architectural wonders in September. October brings a multi-day Eastern Washington journey — think Snake River jet boats, Whitman Mission, Walla Walla wineries, and Oregon's Discovery Center. November invites you to explore Seattle's Klondike Museum and the Museum of Flight. Then cap the year in Vancouver with a British pantomime and the magical lights of VanDusen Botanical Gardens.
