As summer approaches, the number of events is increasing and this week’s events highlight three that showcase the diversity of things to do on Bainbridge Island. Attend an award-winning play, dine in the woods for dinner (or stay the night and grab breakfast too!), and attend the final “First Sunday” concert series until September. You won’t want to miss any of these events – get the details below and block out your calendars!

Featured Events:

• The Humours of Bandon - May 5, 7.30pm-9.30pm

• Dinner in the Wood - May 6, 4.30pm-10pm

• Violin, Harpsichord & Cello - May 7, 4pm-5.30pm

This week’s calendar offers plentiful live music and opportunities to enjoy the arts and culture of Bainbridge Island. 1. The First Friday Art Walk is a tremendous community event that drives opportunities for connection and celebration of the arts. You can start at any place along the route and sample wine and snacks as you go from establishment to establishment enjoying live music and admiring local artists. It’s a wonderful way to kick off the weekend. 2. Tending chickens is big business on Bainbridge. In fact, I think many new islanders move here with dreams of starting a flock and living closer to the land. Bay Hay and Feed is offering a fantastic program on Saturday to learn the basics of chickens. 3. Stop by the concert series, first Sunday Music, and hear the string quartet at the Waterfront Community Center.
