What happens when a Black scientist returns to an abandoned salmon hatchery—and discovers the ghosts aren't quite ready to let the past go? Ghosts of the Hatchery is a dark eco-comedy about salmon, science, climate change, and haunted institutional memory. A scientist reopening an abandoned salmon hatchery finds herself caught in a Christmas Carol-style haunting, where the past refuses to stay buried.
Join us at Seattle's historic Georgetown Steam Plant for a 90-minute experience featuring a 60-minute show and interactive stations, followed by a 30-minute post-show reception.
Explore salmon art, spooky salmon things, and the strange world of the hatchery before and throughout the show, then stick around afterward for a casual reception, tabling, and continued exploration.

Campers, A Group Show
Campers is a group exhibition that traces a distinctly Pacific Northwest lineage of artist-run spaces and DIY exhibition making. Drawing inspiration from alternative venues such as Pipsqueak, the Basement, and improvised sites beneath freeways throughout Seattle, the exhibition considers “camping” as a model for artistic practice: temporarily inhabiting overlooked spaces, adapting to their conditions, and moving on without permanence. Presented at the Georgetown Steam Plant, Campers brings together artists from the Northwest and beyond who share this spirit of rooted, itinerant DIY.
Opening September 5, 4:00-11:00pm with performances at 8:00pm
Hours through September 20, Sat/Sun 12:00 - 5:00pm
Figure Drawing at the Steam Plant w/ Lila Thomas
Join us for an afternoon of creative practice wit Lila Thomas, artist and educator, as she hosts a figure drawing session in the Machine Shop of the Ash Room.
What is Cascadia?
A Bioregional Vision for a Resilient Future
Social movements are needed now more than ever. As the climate crisis deepens, political systems falter, and our extractive economies threaten the very fabric of life on Earth, people everywhere are rising to meet the moment and asking a crucial question: What comes next?
Join us to explore this question with Brandon Letsinger, a longtime champion of Cascadia and founder of Cascadia Now! and the Department of Bioregion. Brandon will share his over two-decade journey in grassroots organizing and reveal the bold vision behind Regenerate Cascadia, an ambitious effort to build regenerative systems at a bioregional scale.
Set inside the historic Georgetown Steam Plant—a relic of our fossil-fueled past now transforming into a platform for reimagined futures—this talk will explore the personal, political, and collective dimensions of movement-building. Building on the Science Fair’s theme, “Break the System,” we’ll dive into:
The Power of Bioregional Finance: How to align money with ecology to heal land and build regenerative, circular economies.
The Role of Watershed Regeneration: Restoring our relationship with the land and water that sustain all life.
