About the event
Join us for the next Rising Tide Speaker Series on Friday, April 10, featuring Vina Brown—an artist, jewelry maker, and entrepreneur whose work sits at the intersection of creativity, culture, and community. Through her journey as a Haíłzaqvḷa First Nations artist, Vina explores how storytelling, identity, and personal history shape not only what we create, but how we show up in the world.
This evening invites you into a conversation grounded in big, human themes: resilience, self-expression, and the power of community. If you’re drawn to thoughtful dialogue around creativity and connection, this is one to add to your calendar.
Before the keynote presentation, enjoy live music from Mark Hunter Jazz Trio, and celebrate the positive impact of Bellingham residents with our Small Wins segment—short, inspiring stories from local folks who are turning creative ideas into community impact.
Tickets by donation, from $10.
Doors open at 7 PM. Programming starts…
