Experience Western like never before at Back 2 Bellingham weekend

Faculty and staff undoubtedly spend a lot of time on the Western Washington University campus. But did you know that Sehome Hill is a sanctuary for rare birds? Have you experienced the Arboretum or listened to Pinky Nelson relive his adventures in space? When was the last time you saw a show at the Performing Arts Center or the Planetarium?

These events and more can be experienced at Back2Bellingham this weekend, and they're free for Western faculty and staff who register here.
