Step into the magical world of the intertidal zone! Join us for a one-hour guided tidepool walk!

This family-friendly program welcomes all ages. Please wear sturdy shoes for slippery rocks—this adventure happens rain or shine, and no registration is needed. Participation is free or by donation.

On your walk you might spot purple shore crabs scuttling sideways between the rocks—these tough little creatures are the clean-up crew of the tidepools, munching on algae and scavenging leftovers. You could also find anemones that “hug” your finger with sticky tentacles, or hermit crabs carrying borrowed shells on their backs. Look closely and you may even see chitons, tiny armored grazers that have been living on Pacific shores for millions of years!

Each tidepool is a window into the Northwest’s vibrant marine life—come explore what lies beneath the waves.

Please supervise children carefully, wear sturdy shoes,. No pets please. Respect the power of the open ocean, stay with your guide. Meet at the Big Beach Picnic Shelter or find us on the beach if you arrive late. 

Learn about and honour Indigenous Veterans Day by making beaded poppies with Elizabeth George, a Nuu-chah-nulth artist from Ahousaht First Nation.

Indigenous Veterans Day is observed each year on November 8th. Wearing a beaded poppy is a way to recognize the contributions made by Indigenous members of the military who served in the two world wars and the Korean War and the many who are still serving to this day.

PEOPLE POWER: Tools for Action

Ever wanted to make a difference but didn’t know where to start?

Hosted by Tsimka Martin and Jeanette Sheehy. The workshop is welcoming and supportive for non-Indigenous people aiming to make change, show up well, and work toward right relationship with Indigenous people, communities, and Nations. Together we’ll look at the systems and structures we live within – settler colonialism – and how it functions both structurally (laws etc.) and interpersonally, and the resulting power dynamics and imbalances. Grounded in this awareness, we will talk about settler responsibilities and map existing and potential pathways toward right-relationship.

Indigenous people are more than welcome to attend, knowing we will be discussing the world as it is, including descriptions of colonial violence and focusing on the settler responses and feelings that maintain these systems. This workshop is rooted in hope and the possibility of a more loving and just world.

Come join Elizabeth George and learn how to create beaded ornaments in this fun and interactive in-person event!.
