Snovalley Pride is proud to host a free monthly movie night at the historic North Bend Theatre! We are so excited to partner with the North Bend Theatre on this wonderful offering. This beautiful theater is a space where stories, art, and community come together on the big screen.

In times like these, queer art and representation matter more than ever. Film has the power to reflect our lives, our love, our struggles, and our joy. When we see pieces of ourselves on screen, we are reminded that we are not alone…and that our stories deserve to be seen, celebrated, and shared.
These movie nights are an invitation to gather, sit side by side, and experience the beauty of queer storytelling together. Whether a film makes us laugh, cry, or sit quietly in reflection, watching as a community creates connection, understanding, and healing. It unites us. It reminds us that joy, visibility, and art are powerful acts of belonging.
What to Expect
•FREE movie nights open to all
•Cultural films that highlight queer voices and lived experiences
•A welcoming, affirming space to connect with neighbors and chosen family
•The magic of cinema in one of the Valley’s most beloved historic theaters

Bring a friend. Bring your family. Come as you are. These nights are about showing up for one another, celebrating queer creativity, and building a Valley where everyone feels seen and safe!

Carnation Farms- Butchery Workshop: How to Cut & Cook Lamb
2026-04-04 16:00 - 19:00 | Carnation Farms, 8901 NE Carnation Farm Road, Carnation, WA, 98014, United States
Butchery Workshop: How to Cut & Cook Lamb

April 4 @ 4:00 pm – 7:00 pm

Join us this April for a hands-on workshop that brings together whole-animal butchery, bold flavors, and plenty of time around the grill!
In this immersive class, you’ll learn how to break down a whole lamb and turn those cuts into crowd-pleasing lamb kabobs—or kofta/kefta—while building confidence working with lamb from start to finish. Led by our on-site butcher, Thomas Coss, the workshop covers whole lamb breakdown, seasoning and shaping ground lamb for kabobs or kofta, and techniques that mirror sausage-making—without the need for casings. It’s a practical, approachable way to understand flavor balance, texture, and how different cuts shine in different preparations.
We’ll finish the day by firing up the grill and enjoying what we’ve made together, served with house made tzatziki and yellow rice. Rooted in seasonality and Carnation Farms’ regenerative practices, this workshop is perfect for curious cooks, lamb lovers, and anyone looking to deepen their connection to the land, the animal, and the meal we share at the table. If you’ve purchased a lamb share or are considering it, this class is a great opportunity to learn how to make the most of your share!
About our Butcher: Instructor Thomas Coss is a butcher and chef with over a decade of experience working with local farms and ranches in the PNW. He specializes in nose-to-tail butchery with a focus on ethical sourcing. His expertise has been a welcome addition to our culinary team. You most likely have tasted his work for yourself in our Farm-Cured Beef Jerky, Farm Meatballs, Smashburgers, and more!
About our Lamb: At Carnation Farms, our lamb is raised right here using regenerative agricultural practices that prioritize soil health, animal welfare, and the long-term vitality of our land. Through rotational grazing and careful stewardship, our sheep help restore the ecosystem while producing meat that is deeply flavorful and responsibly raised.

Sourdough Workshop with Evan Sponsler, Baker at Carnation Farms
2026-04-18 13:00 - 16:00 | Carnation Farms, 8901 NE Carnation Farm Road, Carnation, WA, 98014, United States
Saturday, Apr 18 from 1 pm to 4 pm PDT

Come get hands-on experience with our expert baker and leave with all the tricks of the trade!

Love Carnation Farms sourdough? Have you tried making it at home but couldn’t quite get the hang of it? This is your chance to finally learn how to make and maintain a starter, mix a loaf of bread by hand, and bake the perfect loaf at home. You will learn about baker’s ratios, how to adjust recipes, and how time and temperature play a role in the outcome of your bake to help you make the perfect loaf, every time!
Students will leave the class with their own sourdough starter, an unbaked loaf to bake at home, a baked demi-loaf to enjoy later in the week, and an instructional pamphlet and recipes to keep them inspired.
The class will provide light beverages and snacks, including cheese, charcuterie, and jams to enjoy with some freshly baked bread. This class is perfect for beginners or folks who have made a couple of loaves of bread already but want to get a better understanding of the process.
About the Baker: Evan’s love for food began in childhood in St. Louis, Missouri, where he learned to cook from his Filipino mom and to bake with his grandma. He worked in kitchens in between coursework for a Psychology degree, but ultimately, he fell in love with the grain. He came to Carnation Farms via the Herbfarm and DERU Market. He strives to ensure his baking practices match our regenerative mission and that you can taste the difference in their loaves.
