Bus Tours with Ken Lacy: Grand Coulee Ice
2023-10-21 08:30 - 17:00 | Wenatchee Valley Museum and Cultural Center, 127 South Mission Street, Wenatchee, WA, United States
Join Ken Lacy on a tour of the Moses Coulee and Waterville Plateau on Saturday, Oct. 21.
Prior to the tour, between 8:30-9 AM, Lacy will provide a brief lecture in the Performance Hall of the museum before departure. Attendees will be picked up at the museum at 9 AM, and dropped off at the YMCA parking lot at 5 PM, where attendees will need to park their vehicles. Parking at the museum will be designated for those attending the Haunted Museum.
Over the course of this field trip, attendees will learn details about the basalt and the floodwaters, examining how these floodwaters eroded the 50-mile-long Grand Coulee in only 300 flood days. For comparison, it took over 5 million years to carve the Grand Canyon in Arizona.
Attendees will examine evidence of the different basalt flows, shown in the walls of Moses Coulee. At the Waterville Plateau, guests will see a field where Native Americans harvested their animals.
Near Withrow, guests will see the terminal moraine of the continental ice sheet. The glacier’s forward progress was stalled here, allowing the glacier to dump hundreds of feet of sediment off the front of the glacier.
Later on, Lacy will showcase glacial landforms including kames, drumlins, eskers and kettles.
Tour-goers will then enter the mouth of the Okanogan Valley to see evidence of the erosive power of the ice sheet, an area that was frequented by the actress Jodie Foster. Afterwards, Lacy will highlight the Grand Terrace, near Brewster.
Finally, guests will look at the volcanic dikes located in Pine Canyon, following the Columbia River back to Wenatchee.
Tickets are $90 for members and $125 for non-members. Registration is required and can be found here.

The Last Salmon
2023-10-26 18:00 - 20:00 | Wenatchee Valley Museum and Cultural Center, 127 South Mission Street, Wenatchee, WA, United States
The heartwarming short story of The Last Salmon is returning to the Merc Playhouse in Twisp on Oct. 9, from 1-2:30 PM, with a special performance coming to the Wenatchee Valley Museum on Oct. 26, from 6-8 PM.
Back in 2016, Ki Gottberg and Casey James adapted Phil Davis’s story of Buck and Spring salmon and their adventures with fellow fish friends, with delightful dialogue and original music composed by Grammy-nominated songwriter Mr. James. Upon debut, this production was seen as Merc Playhouse’s best original production.
These special encore performances will begin with a prayer from Randy Lewis, followed by readings from the original short story by author Phil Davis and musical performances from Rebecca Kinney, playing Spring, and Andrew Tuller, playing Buck.
In Twisp, Kristen Kirkby will join the cast after the performance for a lively discussion about salmon and the role humans play in their future. There are only 25 seats available at the Merc Playhouse.
Registration for the Merc Playhouse showtime is available here. Registration for the museum showtime can be found here.

First Friday at the Museum: Opening of the Pocket Full of Dreams - Journeys of Hope Exhibit
2023-11-03 16:00 - 20:00 | Wenatchee Valley Museum and Cultural Center, 127 South Mission Street, Wenatchee, WA, United States
The Wenatchee Valley Museum and Cultural Center is excited to announce the opening of our new Pocket Full of Dreams: Journeys of Hope exhibit, featuring artwork from Guest Curator Martha Flores.
Last year, the Wenatchee Valley Museum was fortunate enough to receive funding from the Washington State Legislature, the Diversity in Local History (DLH) program and hired Dulce Gutierrez Vasquez from the University of Washington to cultivate this exhibit. Gutierrez Vasquez worked with members of Wenatchee’s Latin-American community to gather stories and images to help the museum share a more holistic view of the community.
We will highlight five of the ten interviews recorded from this grant in our new exhibit, Pocket Full of Dreams: Journeys of Hope, which celebrates the human experience. Visitors are invited to sit down at the table with these individuals to listen and read their stories to learn about the history, family dynamics, and cultural heritage that shaped who they are today.
Funded by the Washington State Legislature, the Diversity in Local History (DLH) program awards grants for paid internships that support diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives at heritage organizations that increase the stories they tell and the communities they serve.

Environmental Film and Speaker Series Presents: The Doctrine of Recovery
2023-11-09 19:00 - 21:00 | Wenatchee Valley Museum and Cultural Center, 127 South Mission Street, Wenatchee, WA, United States
The Environmental Film and Speaker Series presents The Doctrine of Recovery
On Thursday, Nov. 9, 2023, between 7-9 PM, attendees will have the chance to view this widely acclaimed film, which won the 2023 Dreamspeakers Feature Documentary award.

Since 1493, the so-called Doctrine of Discovery has justified the dispossession and decimation of the Indigenous inhabitants of North America and brought us to our present environmental breaking point. The Doctrine of Recovery is an Indigenous antidote to rebalance Earth systems, restore the sacred feminine, and ensure our species survival.

Three generations of Tribal women – Casey Camp-Horinek, Crystle Lightning, and Juliet Langley Hayes – speak on what has gone unspoken, and unapologetically expose the influence of founding patriarchs and white supremacy in places most never thought to look, and in doing so demonstrate the ongoing and devastating formula patterned by the Doctrine of Discovery.
Admission is free for members and $5 for non-members. Registration can be found here.
The Environmental Film and Speaker Series is sponsored by the Rotary Clubs of Chelan and Greater Wenatchee Valley.

Closed for Veterans Day
