IslandWood is pleased to host naturalist, archeologist, and fellow educator David B. Williams in our continued conversation and educational exploration of the natural and cultural forces that have shaped our regional lands, waters, and its peoples. We hope you join us for this relaxing evening.
In this talk, author David B. Williams tells the long story of the Sound, tracing human history from the earliest records more than 12,500 years ago to present. He will also consider overlooked species such as Olympia oysters, rockfish, geoduck, kelp, and herring, as well as salmon and orca. Witty, graceful, and deeply informed, these stories presents a fascinating and hopeful narrative, one that will introduce newcomers to the astonishing life that inhabits Puget Sound and offers longtime residents new insights into and appreciation of the waters they call home.
We invite you to stay for our author’s reception happy hour under IslandWood’s iconic “Port Blakely Toothpick” fir beam in the beauty of our Welcome Center. If you don’t already own the book, Homewaters will be on *sale during the happy hour and David would love to sign your personal copy! We love it when you stay awhile to build connections with neighbors and friends and to continue conversations about the topic.
