This calendar is the place to find fun events happening throughout Grays Harbor County including Aberdeen, Hoquiam, Westport, Ocean Shores, Elma, Montesano and beyond.
For 2015, Westport Winery is hosting “Dancing Without Scars” one night a month as a fundraiser for Beyond Survival, a domestic violence support group in Aberdeen. Rather than charge guests a cover charge, the winery is offering free live music the third Friday of every month and encouraging dancers to leave a donation for this organization.
The first of these fun-filled dance event features the Maki-Melihoff Jazz Duo. Whether you are dancing, dining or just listening you are invited to enjoy music in a unique intimate setting with limited seating for each dance.

We will host the 3rd annual ladies Habitat for Humani-Tea in the town hall to benefit our local Habitat for Humanity non-profit organization. Each year, Seabrook Community Foundation grants money to this organization to do the good work they do in our community. The ladies tea is a celebration of that work and also a way to increase fundraising beyond what the SCF grant money can accomplish.
You will enjoy tea, great food, great company, live music, a mimosa bar, dessert auction, and fabulous guest speakers!

“Four Horsemen” Thursday, May 18, 6:30 p.m., which reveals fundamental flaws in the economic system. “Four Horsemen” is sponsored by Grays Harbor Institute.
In 2008, one of the great modern explorers of the world’s oceans, Dr. Robert Ballard, formed the Ocean Exploration Trust with a goal of making oceanic explorations accessible to the public over the internet. The flagship of this Trust is the E/V Nautilus, and it carries two Remotely Operated Vehicles. A grant allowed for four days of exploration by these vehicles in the Quinault Canyon off the shores of Washington State, where they mapped ocean floor terrain, sampled for ocean acidification, and looked at methane seeps and deep water organisms. Joe Schumacker and Olympic National Marine Sanctuary coordinated with the ship during this time, and in this presentation Joe will share information, photos, and video footage.
