The Moscow Community Band, composed of musicians from across the Palouse, will present a five-week series of free concerts. Each concert has a different theme. The July 2 concert will include a reading of the Declaration of Independence.
Women’s underwear has long reflected society’s views on modesty, femininity, and beauty. From historic styles that restricted the female form to the more liberating fashions of today, women’s undergarments have been symbols of both oppression and empowerment.
In this talk, explore how comfort, freedom, and function in women’s undergarments mirrored broader social changes. We ask why there were so many people throughout history who had their panties in a bunch over the drawers in women’s drawers. And we pull back the layers of satin and silk to see how the evolution of women’s underwear parallels our ongoing struggle for gender equality.
This free event is in partnership with Humanities Washington and Columbia Basin College. Doors open at 6:30.

Hop on our shuttle bus and join us for a morning of stewardship! This day will be focused on litter pickup. Summer is a great time to pick up litter as outdoor recreation increases and other restoration activities like planting aren't viable. Trash can wash into creeks and rivers polluting water that salmon (and people!) rely on.
Meet at NSEA’s campus by 8am and your group leader will shuttle everyone to the site. You can expect to be back to NSEA at 11am. All tools and instructions needed will be provided, all you need to bring is long pants, weather gear as appropriate, sturdy shoes, and a water bottle!
