“Other Desert Cities,” a play by Jon Robin Baitz, is opening at Whidbey Island Center for the Arts this weekend.
How many times in life are we motivated only to become disillusioned? How many times do we feel led or called to do something, only to allow circumstances or others to derail us?
Whidbey Island Center for the Arts is seeking submissions for its upcoming one act play festival.
Whidbey Island Center for the Arts will host its fourth annual WOW! Stories event next month.
WOW! is a celebration of remarkable Whidbey Island women modeled after the famed TED conference, according to a recent press release.

Award-winning filmmaker Ruth Gregory’s professional storytelling career began at the age of 15, when the astute South Whidbey Falcon walked into the office of the Island Independent and asked for a job.

Whether the skies are clear and bright with sunshine or grey and pouring rain, Barbara Powell and her dog and hiking partner, Echo, take to the trails for their twice-daily walk.
Powell is one of several South Whidbey residents who regularly treks the island’s numerous parks, beaches and trail systems.
Whidbey Island’s ecosystem is one of its most unique and delicate features. Oceanic and land-based flora and fauna intertwine in a complex chain, each link reliant upon the others to maintain the wellbeing of the whole.
Gloria Ferry-Brennan, Langley resident, will perform a violin solo sonata by J.S. Bach, violin concerti by Barber and Mozart and compositions by Debussy and Paganini in the next installment of the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Whidbey Island’s Concert Series.
