Good morning, this is your Bellingham Local Frequency for Wednesday, July 23, 2025. Bellingham is waking up to another beautiful summer day, with a lineup of activities and some important local headlines you’ll want to know about. For families looking to keep the kids busy, Regal’s Summer Movie Express has “Despicable Me 4” screening this morning at both 10:30 and 11:30 for only a buck a ticket, making it one of the best deals in town. And if your young ones are feeling extra creative, the Whatcom Museum's FIG Studio is running a special “Orange You Glad I’m Biking” workshop from ten to four thirty, where kids can stamp bicycle spokes using citrus fruits and let their imaginations pedal wild. For those wanting a grown-up night out, Hotel Bellwether’s Winesday kicks off this evening at five. Sip on selections from Winebow and soak in some tango courtesy of Urban Salon—think great pours and passionate moves until nine o’clock. If live music is what you crave, tonight’s installment of Summer Nights at the Bay brings the Freckles Brown Band to the waterfront park; it’s free, family-friendly, and picnic baskets are encouraged, so settle in for some classic summer fun. Sports fans, the Bellingham Bells are on the road tonight facing the Port Angeles Lefties, but if you’re ready to plan ahead for baseball at home, check their schedule for upcoming games at Joe Martin Field. Meanwhile, for culture connoisseurs, the Bellingham Festival of Music invites you to its “You Had Me at Cello” concert, sure to charm with classical favorites and a few surprises, happening this afternoon. In other happenings, families interested in history can catch the Dirty Dan Harris History Hike in Fairhaven, and theater lovers, don’t miss Bellingham TheaterWorks’s Summer Repertory presentations at the Firehouse Arts and Events Center, where thought-provoking plays take the stage nightly. In local news, a Bellingham family’s journey from survival to stability is capturing attention, with World Relief highlighting how Abdul and Fatemah have successfully put down roots here, found work, and rebuilt their lives with the help of community support. Meanwhile, a traffic update for commuters—the Guide Meridian is slated for a full repaving from I-5 all the way to the Canadian border, but not until 2027, so drive safe and keep an eye on future improvements. As always, there’s more going on—from museum exhibits to foodie festivals—so check the local event calendars before you head out. This has been Bellingham Local Frequency.
