The Healing Arts Center Fair is coming up on the weekend of Nov. 10-11. This fair represents the center’s outreach to the Orcas Island community; all are invited to sample the many offerings of their practitioners, at greatly discounted fees. Among these are several massage therapists, an acupuncturist, a nurse practitioner, and a counselor offering shamanic journeying and counseling. In addition, there will be a nutrition class on Saturday, only $15 by pre-registration, to offer advice on Special Diets for Common Allergens.

These fairs help raise funds for needed improvements for the historic Eastsound building that the HAC has maintained for 30 years; all practitioners donate their services to the non-profit. You may sign up in advance for a session or the class, at 453 North Beach Road or by calling 360-376-4002; best times are M–F, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. More information on practitioners is available at the website at www.orcashealingarts.org.
