Live musical performances took place in the big tent in the center of the meadow and volunteer driven art-making tents ringed the edges. Faerie Garden-making, presented by Diggin' Shoreline, was especially popular.

Descendants of the original peoples of this area, members of the Duwamish, Snohomish, and Chinook Tribes shared culture through cedar doll-making, song, dance, and drumming, and rides around the lake in their giant hand-carved canoe!
