Humanities Washington Speaker Event:
What is a Chief? How native Values Can Teach Resilience-John Halliday
Most museums display no more than 10 percent of their holdings, often citing “not enough space” as the reason. But there are also a wide range of cultural, philosophical, political, environmental, historic, and even superstitious reasons why museums keep some objects from public view.
In this talk, explore a wide range of hidden objects found in the back rooms of museums in our state and around the country. Examples include a Spokane institution that holds Bing Crosby’s toupées and a museum in Lynden that’s home to a 150-year-old pickle. When possible, we will have local museum curators on hand to answer questions, participate in our discussions, and unbox a few hidden treasures.
As part of First Presbyterian Church of Aberdeen’s mission to the community, our church will hold a spaghetti dinner and craft fair on Saturday, November 2 nd from 5:00-7:00 pm. Funds raised will be used to purchase stocking caps, socks and gloves for those in need. The dinner will include spaghetti, salad, bread, dessert, and beverage. Vegetarian & Gluten Free options are available. The cost is $10 for adults and $7 for children 12 and under. Crafts for the event are being made and donated by the congregation.
Tickets can be purchased at the church office or at the door the day of the event.
There is no cost to attend the craft fair. For more information, visit our website at aberdeenpres.org.

Acoustic Rock Musician, Jon Reynolds will be performing a variety of rock covers and originals at this all ages evening performance.
On February 23, from 3pm to 5pm, Lee and Dani Bacon, the founders of UNPLUGGED: Kurt Cobain Tribute Museum and the Music Project will present a FREE lecture titled The Life and Times of Kurt Cobain in the sunroom of the Sea Glass Grill at Westport Winery Garden Resort. The couple will offer Nirvana and Cobain fans significant insights into the band’s phenomenal success and its impact on our community. Their museum has a strong focus on the grunge music era, what inspired the artists, and why their music struck so deeply in the hearts of their fans.
Lee and Dani opened the museum in 2024, but their adventure began when they purchased the Cobain family home with the idea of preserving it, but without a specific plan. Their story is nearly as fascinating as the grunge music history they celebrate. Guests will get a look behind the scenes at the evolution and future of their incredible museum. UNPLUGGED is open Friday through Sunday from 11am to 5pm at 121 W. Wishkah in Aberdeen.
Please call Westport Winery at 360-648-2224 to register for the lecture. Even though it is free, it helps to plan the seating. Walk-ins and all ages are welcome.

WHAT:
Expanding Your Horizons (EYH) Conference is a one-day conference designed to engage and inspire middle school students —especially Young women, trans and nonbinary youth—to explore careers in science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics (STEAM). Through hands-on workshops, mentorship opportunities, and interactive sessions, participants will gain confidence, discover new interests, and connect with professionals in a variety of STEAM fields.
WHO:
EYH is designed for:
young women, trans, and non-binary students of all genders, including and especially youth who identify as Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) in 6th, 7th, and 8th grades from across our region.
Women, trans, and non-binary professionals of all genders, including and especially BIPOC professionals in STEAM fields who are interested in mentoring and inspiring the next generation.
The conference is a welcoming and inclusive space for all students who feel they would benefit from a program centered on empowering young women and gender minorities in STEAM. No prior experience is necessary—just bring curiosity and enthusiasm.
