Not much – well get prepared! \nThis Halloween we have gathered several community leaders to retell the local legend of the B-24 that crashed near Mission Ridge.

SUMMARY:Virtual Watercolor with Molly Hashimoto
DESCRIPTION:Wenatchee River Institute Presents- \nLearn how to paint the vibrant colors of autumn in the Cascades with Molly Hashimoto!\nIn this hands-on class\, you will paint along with her\, trying out techniques with fun skill-building exercises\, as well as more complete paintings of landscapes. We will share work at the end of the workshop with lots of positive feedback and helpful suggestions. \nCost: $53 members\, $60 non-members\nLimit of 12 participants\nAfter registering\, you will receive the Zoom link information \nWatercolor Supply List:\n**NOTE: the materials you already have at home are fine! The only item Molly suggests you buy is Arches 140 lb. cold press watercolor paper.\n-Drawing pencil HB (for watercolor under sketches) \n-Artist eraser\, white Mars plastic (made by Staedtler) \n-Paper: Arches 140 lb. cold press watercolor paper\, 100% rag cut to your preferred size for painting. Check out the new horizontal and square format blocks\, too. \n-Lightweight board for paper mounting for ease of painting if you use single sheets with clips or rubber bands. \n-Brushes: Sable or sable/synthetic blend watercolor brushes: #12\, #6\, and #4 round\, ¾” flat.\nOther sizes and types are optional. Do not buy a synthetic brush in #12 or #8 size: they are too stiff and do not lay smooth washes. Synthetics are fine for #4 and smaller sizes. I like Da Vinci Maestro sable rounds the best\, but they are expensive. A sable/synthetic blend works well and is cheaper. Other brushes I like using are smaller flat brushes with chisel edges (which are useful for softening edges\, and lifting out)\, riggers or liners for small line work. \n-Water and water containers or waterbrushes \n-Palette: Alvin 18 pan with blue waterproof seal\, filled with the following tube paints:\nPaints: I use Daniel Smith watercolors\nReds: Cool: permanent alizarin crimson\nWarm: pyrrol scarlet\nBlues: Cool: phthalo blue (green shade)\nWarm: phthalo blue (red shade) or French ultramarine blue or ultramarine blue\nYellows: Cool: hansa yellow light\nWarm: hansa yellow medium\nViolet: carbazole violet\nBrowns and golds: quinacridone burnt orange\, yellow ochre or raw sienna (you can substitute burnt umber or burnt sienna for the quinacridone burnt orange).\nOther colors you may want to add\, in order of their usefulness: cobalt blue\, hansa yellow deep or new gamboge\, perylene green\, perinone orange\, indanthrone blue\, Chinese white or Winsor and Newton permanent white gouache-it has more covering power than Chinese white. \n-Paper towels\, rags \n-Optional: Winsor and Newton Masking Fluid\, white pens (I like Posca paint pens for corrections)\nSea sponge for corrections\, Cheap Joe’s Fritch scrub brushes\, also for corrections \n\n\n\n\n\nCONTACT INFO\n Rachel Bishop\n rbishop@wenatcheeriverinstitute.org\n 509-548-0181 ext 5

SUMMARY:Prognosis Planet Earth 2020: 50 Years after the first Earth Day with Joan Qazi
DESCRIPTION:Pybus University presents:\nPrognosis Planet Earth 2020: 50 Years after the first Earth Day\, with Joan Qazi \nThis is a FREE virtual event. Register using Pybus University’s link below. \nhttps://www.eventbrite.com/e/prognosis-planet-earth-2020-50-years-after-the-first-earth-day-tickets-115769845725 \nThe fiftieth anniversary of the first Earth Day is a significant time to reflect on the health of our planet and on what kind of ancestors we want to be for those who celebrate Earth Day’s 100th anniversary. This course is designed to rethink our legacy away from destruction and towards restoration and reconnection with the natural world and our place in it. We start by asking\, what is the state of our planet in terms of climate\, species extinctions and vital ecosystems? You will learn about the basic science of climate change and its various impacts here in North Central Washington and abroad with data gathered from NASA\, NOAA\, Carbon Brief\, and UW’s Climate Impacts Group. We will then put this data into the context of climate justice—who is most vulnerable to harm\, and climate grief—how can we deal with this harm and potential losses? The best antidote often seems to be action\, and we will need it at all levels from individual to international\, from personal to policy. We will conclude the class with an overview of existing solutions to help mitigate the crisis and then envision how each of us can use our skills or talents to take appropriate action and become a better 100th Earth Day ancestor. \n(FYI Reference to be explained in the talk: Robin Kimmerer asks in her essay\, On Choosing to Belong to a Place\, “What kind of ancestor do you want to be?”) \nPresenter Bio: Joan Qazi is a professor of Geography and Sustainability at Wenatchee Valley College. She is on the board of Sustainable Wenatchee and trained as a Climate Reality Leader\, teaching and researching about climate change for 25 years. As a teacher and a mother\, Joan wants to find ways to meet our needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet theirs. \nFor more information click here.

SUMMARY:Calling Women In-Snow Science
DESCRIPTION:This is an online event. \nHosted by Community Snow Observations and SheJumps \nDid you know less than 10% of snow scientists identify as women? We’re invested in seeing that shift to include more women in snow science. Join us for a virtual panel packed with women who’ve made their careers in snow science. Listen to their stories about how they got into and why they’ve stuck with it. Topics will include finding the career\, the education process\, challenges along the way\, support and how they see the career changing in the future. \nIn addition\, snow scientists Katreen Wikstrom Jones and Christina Aragon will explain the Community Snow Observations project which is part of the NASA Citizen Science for Earth Systems project. You’ll learn how you can be a citizen scientist and help CSO predict snow conditions and improve snow safety in the mountains. We’ll wrap it all up with a Q & A session hosted by Dr. Sara Boilen. \nAs an added bonus to those who participate\, we are giving away some sweet Arc’teryx gear! The participant must register & attend the event in order to qualify. Winners will be announced the following day by SheJumps on their Instagram. \n** This event is donation based yet you must register via Eventbrite** \nFor more information click here.

SUMMARY:P'squosa People & Their Fishing Rights
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by Wenatchee River Institute\n\nJoin Tribal Historian\, Richard Hart\, for your lunch break!\nA leader of the Psquosa signed the 1855 Walla Walla Treaty\, which guaranteed them a 6 by 6 mile reservation where Icicle Creek meets the Wenatchee River. The United States never surveyed the reservation and refused for over a century to recognize the tribe’s fishing rights. In a federal trial in May of 2008 the Psquosa argued they had fishing rights and eventually the court (and the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals) ruled in favor of the tribe\, so under the law\, the matter is now settled. After more than 150 years the Wenatchis finally have their fishing rights.\nHow to watch:\nPlease click the link below to join the webinar:\nhttps://zoom.us/j/99614692875…\nPasscode: 969509

SUMMARY:Voices of Transition
DESCRIPTION:Environmental Film & Speaker Series: Voices of Transition\nHosted by Wenatchee Valley Museum & Cultural Center and sponsored by Sustainable Wenatchee\n\nJoin us in viewing the documentary Voices of Transition\, and participate in a follow-up Zoom Q&A Sessions with a local panel on Tuesday\, February 2 at 7 PM.\nPowered by the conviction that crisis can be a major catalyst for change\, Voices of Transition present paths towards a new model of human existence: one which is fair\, environmentally sound and fulfilling\, with soil and people supporting each other in a balanced and sustainable system. In England\, France and Cuba\, we meet committed communities who are successfully establishing local\, autonomous\, ecological food systems and\, in so doing\, are taking back control of their food supplies from multinational corporations.\nThe stories told by these diverse Voices of Transition carry an emboldening message: by working more closely with nature\, we can create incredible opportunities. And if we work together not only with nature\, but with other people\, we can change the world.\n\nRegistration is by donation. After registering you will receive an email with a link to preview the film at your leisure and join us virtually for a Q&A Session with a local panel on Tuesday\, February 2 from 7 – 8:30 PM.\n\nFor more information click here.
