Heron Happenings is a showcase and celebration of local small businesses that are both creative and service enterprises.

Recent graduates of a series of marketing classes for small business owners sponsored by the Jamestown S’Klallam Tribal Library will gather to showcase a wide variety of unique products and services that will be available for purchase.

The June 6 event is the culmination of these classes as they celebrate their hard work and showcase their products and services. The public is encouraged to attend to meet local small business owners.
