Description
1:30 p.m. Pre-concert talk by avian ecologist Bob Boekelheide 2:00 to 3:30 p.m. Concert “For the Birds” features a jazz quintet performing the original music of Seattle pianist and composer Nelda Swiggett. You may have attended “The Alaska Suite” concert by the same composer in 2023. Nelda and her quintet are back for a second tour of the Olympic Peninsula with an all-new concert, focused on birds! Birds are a part of our daily life experience and an inspiring connection to the natural world. Climate change is having a significant and alarming impact on many bird species, and this should be a wake-up call for all of us. The performance engages the power of artistic expression—live music, spoken word, images and poetry—to connect audiences deeply and emotionally to the scientific realities of climate change. Ultimately a story of hope, audiences leave the performance feeling empowered to take meaningful action.
