Fishes and Wishes! All ages New Years Eve Celebration!
On New Years Eve each year we celebrate Fishes & Wishes, an event that involves lighting up Fin, The Salmon Coalition’s giant salmon sculpture, and asking folks to make wishes on small stones collected from the beach. Human hands infuse their warmth and those wishes into the rocks. We then collect the stones in a basket with a promise to toss them back into the salmon streams, so the waters and the fish can carry the wishes back to the sea. It’s symbolic but also somatic— a ceremony that honors our connection to each other and the interrelated whole. We send wishes with the fishes and celebrate the new year with this all-ages countdown, toast, and dance party!
