In 1968, Vietnam, civil rights, women’s liberation, and conservation coalesced—and tragedy led the 6 o’clock news. It changed us in ways still rippling a half-century later. 1968: The Year That Rocked Washington features a collection of online stories and an exhibit at the Washington State Capitol with profiles, compelling photos, and artifacts that document the activism and aftershocks of a landmark year in world history.
Please join us for Channel Point Village’s opening Speaker Series event with John Larson, Executive Director of The Polson Museum in Hoquiam, WA, as he explores the theme “Capture the Moment” in relation to the museum’s community-based oral history project “My Harbor Story” and his work at the museum.

Spielberg’s friendly aliens deliver Close Encounters at 7th Street Theatre Sept. 21-22
Gentle, friendly aliens, Devil’s Tower, Francois Truffaut and the mother of all motherships all arrive at Grays Harbor’s historic 7th Street Theatre with showings at 7:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday, September 21-22 of Steven Spielberg’s “Close Encounters of the Third Kind.”
As researchers discover and decipher phenomena that suggest an alien visitation to Earth may be imminent, ordinary family guy Roy Neary (Richard Dreyfuss) and a few fellow Hoosiers have their own UFO experiences. Roy and a single mom (Melinda Dillon) whose son has been seemingly snatched by spacemen, are left with subconscious suggestions that drive them toward their own “close encounters” in director Spielberg’s 1977 sci-fi adventure, the first of his two films featuring friendly extraterrestrials, like E.T.
Doors open at 7:00 p.m. for the 7:30 p.m. showings. The theatre is located at 313 7th Street in downtown Hoquiam. Tickets are $6 and will be available at the door. Advance tickets are available at Harbor Drug and Crown Drug in Hoquiam, City Drug in Aberdeen and at the website, www.7thstreettheatre.com. For more information call the theatre at 360-537-7400.
