Step into a Winter Wonderland on December 26, 2025
At the Edmonds Center for the Arts, the world of Hans Christian Andersen’s beloved fairy tale comes alive in a breathtaking ballet by the Grand Kyiv Ballet. The Snow Queen is more than a performance—it’s an enchanting journey through shimmering landscapes of ice and snow, where love and courage triumph over darkness.
From the first notes of music by Grieg, Massenet, Mozart, and Vivaldi, you’ll be swept into a realm of magic:

• Gerda’s brave quest to rescue Kai from the spellbound palace of the Snow Queen.
• Whimsical encounters with forest fairies, mischievous trolls, and a comical snowman.
• Dazzling choreography and opulent costumes that sparkle like frost under winter moonlight.

Imagine a weekend escape to the serene shores of Port Angeles, where the thrill of foraging meets the beauty of nature. Picture yourself harvesting a bounty of sea urchins and sea cucumbers. This unique adventure offers a rare opportunity to gather sea urchins, which are best found during the winter months when the tides are low and later in the day.
As you explore the vibrant tidal pools and rocky outcrops, you’ll be immersed in the rich marine life that calls this bay home. The crisp, salty air and the gentle sound of waves create a perfect backdrop for this hands-on experience.
After a day of foraging, take a short trip to nearby Port Angeles. Here, you can stroll through charming streets, visit local shops, and enjoy fresh seafood at cozy restaurants. The town’s scenic views of the Olympic Mountains and the Strait of Juan de Fuca add to the allure of this coastal getaway.
Whether you’re a seasoned forager or a curious beginner, this weekend trip promises an unforgettable blend of adventure, relaxation, and discovery. 🌊🦀🌿
