Good morning, this is your Bellingham Local Frequency for Saturday, September 20, 2025. Kicking off the day, the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention hosts the Out of the Darkness Walk at Bellingham High School starting at 9 a.m., a powerful community event reminding us all that mental health awareness and support are at the heart of Bellingham’s spirit. For those eager for some fresh local flavor, both the Bellingham Dockside Market at Squalicum Harbor and the weekly Farmers Market at Depot Market Square will be buzzing from 10 to 2. Whether you want just-picked apples, artisan bread, or fresh seafood straight from Puget Sound, you’ll find it all while mingling among your neighbors. If you’re searching for a unique shopping experience, the Pitcher Perfect Vintage Market pops up from noon to 7 p.m. at Structures Brewing’s Old Town Taproom. Think one-of-a-kind retro finds paired with inventive local brews and a festive atmosphere. Meanwhile, art lovers can swing by Cordata Gallery for the Modern Meets Primitive exhibition, showcasing local artists blending ancient inspiration with modern flair, open till 4 p.m. today. At the Jansen Art Center, creative souls can try their hand at paint pouring in a special workshop, nurturing your inner chaos artist in the most colorful way. As the afternoon rolls in, celebrate a milestone as Boundary Bay Brewery throws its big 30th Anniversary Party from 11 a.m. till late, promising craft beer, live music, and that iconic community feel that’s defined downtown Bellingham for three decades. If you’re in the mood for some science and spectacle, head to the SPARK Museum of Electrical Invention for the always-thrilling MegaZapper Show at 2:30, a crowd favorite for families and curious minds alike. Tonight brings even more options: jazz fans will want to grab brunch at Hotel Leo or catch acclaimed trumpeter Chris Botti at Mount Baker Theatre at 7:30 p.m. Over at Bayou on Bay, Reji Marc delivers an electric solo set, while fans of all things eighties can rock out to HairNation at Bar Two Eleven. For the adventurous, sunset means silent disco at Zuanich Point Park—headphones on, worries off, dancing as the sun dips behind the bay. If you’re planning Sunday, don’t forget it’s Bellingham Bay Marathon day. Runners will be hitting the streets from 7 in the morning, so cheer them on or plan your travel accordingly. There’s also Bellingham Veg Fest at Barkley Village for plant-based eats and ideas. On the news front, three Ferndale men remain in custody following a robbery in Bellingham this summer. Authorities remind residents to stay vigilant and connected, especially as police wrap up investigations and reinforce neighborhood safety. Weather reports suggest a mild fall day with plenty of crisp sunshine, perfect for enjoying all that Bellingham has to offer. That’s your snapshot for Saturday.
