Protect Poverty Bay Workshop

Join us at “Protect Poverty Bay: a Community Workshop for Clean Water” on November 21st, Thursday  5:30-7pm at Highline College! You’ll learn about water quality status of Poverty Bay (btw, where IS Poverty Bay?) and what we can do in our daily lives to improve the water quality and protect seals, octopuses, our dogs, and family. Here from King County’s water scientists, a marine animal rescuer, a dog poo expert, and a Public Health official to share how you can express your love for Poverty Bay water, animals, and community! Please register at https://2024protectpovertybay.eventbrite.com but walk-ins welcome!

Squid-A-Rama

Ready for the running of the squid!?!? Squid-a-Rama celebrates the return of the squid to our local waters with a whole series of activities including dissections, squid release, squid talk, and story time, plus the awarding for our student art competition. The event will be held from 4pm-7pm at the Des Moines Beach Park Dining Hall – 22030 Cliff Ave South, Des Moines WA 98198.

The Squid-A-Rama Student Art Competition, an annual event spearheaded by the Des Moines Arts Commission and held at the MaST Center Aquarium, aims to foster and honor the creative talents of our local young artists. The 12th annual Squid-a-Rama Elementary Art Competition display was created by local 1st-5th grade students from North Hill Elementary. See the display at the MaST Center Aquarium for the month of November!

Below is the schedule of activites for Squid-A-Rama. Registration is recommended for the squid dissections since there is limited space. For more information or questions, please email Aeriel Wauhob at awauhob@highline.edu.
