Good morning, this is your Bellingham Local Frequency for Monday, November 3rd, 2025. The autumn chill is in the air, but Bellingham’s calendar is heating up with community events, local news, and plenty of ways to embrace the week.First up, the city is still aglow from the launch of Bellingham Illuminations at the Whatcom Art Center. This nine-day art experience continues today, transforming Fairhaven’s historic district with light-infused installations, interactive blacklight exhibits, and hands-on luminary crafts. Open from 11 to 6, it’s an especially magical stop if you want to explore unique glowing masterpieces and support local art education—the proceeds help fund scholarships for Western Washington University students. Whether you’re a family seeking some weeknight adventure or an art lover eager to meet local creators, this is a can’t-miss on the Bellingham November scene.Sports fans, we’ve got action tonight as the Bellingham girls soccer squad faces Archbishop Murphy in a much-anticipated high school showdown. Expect fierce play and plenty of school spirit as the teams battle it out on the field. If you’re looking for something a little different, swing by Bloedel Donovan Community Building between 4 and 6 for GangBall—a fast-paced, indoor sport event sure to get hearts pumping.For anyone chasing a little Monday motivation, The Majestic Ballroom hosts its Monday Night Dance with the Bellingham Embodiment Collective tonight from 6:30 to 8.

Tomorrow, Cheba Hut’s Best Buds Bingo returns for those looking to keep the camaraderie rolling.A local highlight not to miss is the family-friendly scavenger hunt, “Bank Heist Bellingham.” It’s a fun way to challenge your puzzle skills and uncover clues throughout downtown, happening throughout the afternoon. For those passionate about art and history, several galleries, including Meloy Gallery and Cordata Gallery, have special exhibits up all month—perfect for an afternoon stroll when you need some inspiring visuals.Public safety officers have been busy lately with increased calls due to last week’s dry spell and wind. Fire officials urge residents to exercise extreme caution during outdoor activities, especially as vegetation is still recovering and susceptible to sparks. It’s a timely reminder as burning piles are expected to be visible in parts of the county.In other news, community hearts remain heavy after skeletal remains were identified last week along I-5. Authorities continue to investigate, and anyone with information is encouraged to reach out for assistance.Finally, as we move deeper into November, don’t forget about local workshops, dance classes, and the build-up to holiday pop-ups like the Shop Small Holiday Makers Market at Bellingham Cruise Terminal.
