The Festival of the St̓əč̓as is a community event centered around Squaxin culture and connection to the area, public education, estuary restoration, environmental stewardship, and envisioning the future of a restored Deschutes Estuary. We will include a thoughtful educational and outreach area featuring organizations doing meaningful work throughout the Deschutes Watershed and South Sound region, as well as live cultural performances and local vendors.

Join the Puget Sound Estuarium as we set sail for a day of exploration and education on the water! This event has us cruising a private yacht around the estuarine environment of the South Sound where there will be activities, catered lunch, and a surprise stop at a secret location.

Laura Busby, who has a heartfelt passion for helping people connect with nature and the environment, will be this year’s onboard educator. Her work as a naturalist and environmental educator across a wide range of settings and organizations, including urban nature centers, historical farms, schools, state and national parks, and zoos, has shaped her professional career.

Ages 13+
Tickets – $475 plus vendor processing fees.

Tickets are non-refundable after August 9th. All ticket proceeds go directly to support the Estuarium’s all-ages science-based education.

Join a museum curator for an in-depth exploration of the Olympia AHA Museum! Share a meaningful visit with fellow visitors and community members as your guide connects exhibitions with the people and places that shaped our region.
