This Valentine's Day, come celebrate love of Salmon and the Earth that inspired our recent actions in Paris for the UN Climate Talks in December.

Be lifted by music, stories, images and video of Salmon is Life: Wisdom of the Heart.

For closing, please join us in lifting as many Salmon as we can to dance in the air.

Its Valentines Day! Lets Spawn more heart-centered actions that speak for the Salmon People and care for the Circle of Life.
- Paul Cheoketen Wagner

There will be snacks available. Please bring your favorites if you'd like.

Event details:

1:00-2:30 Hands-on art: Batik prayer flags together. Some flags will go to Paris, to the neighborhood where the terrorist attacks happened on 11/13/15; some will stay in Seattle. *Batik was used to make the Salmon windSockeyes. Also, salmon hat making for children.
