Uptown tunes from Motown to modern<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

The singers of \u201cUptown: A Celebration of Motown & Soul<\/b>\u201d are bringing their energetic take on soul and rhythm and blues songs both classic and contemporary to Olympia on Saturday, Nov. 8. The New York-based group, making its Olympia debut at The Washington Center for the Performing Arts, is known for its polished performances, impressive vocals and high energy. \u201cIt\u2019s such a fun show,\u201d said Jill Barnes, the center\u2019s executive director. \u201c(The performers are) great dancers; they\u2019re great singers.\u201d The concert is at 7:30 p.m. at the center, 512 Washington St. SE, Olympia. Tickets are $40-$82<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Salmon & Cider Celebration<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

Salmon swimming upstream to spawn are as much a part of autumn in South Sound as colorful leaves and growing puddles. Thurston County\u2019s Stream Team<\/b>, which organizes teams of salmon stewards to guide those who want to see the annual migration, is celebrating the return from 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 9, with hot apple cider, doughnuts and crafts along with time to view the salmon in action. It\u2019s happening at the Welcoming Pavilion at McLane Creek Nature Trail<\/b>. You\u2019ll need a Discover Pass to park at the trail. A shuttle will be available with advance registration<\/a> required. If you don\u2019t visit Sunday, there are other opportunities to see the salmon; volunteer stewards will be at the creek on weekends and holidays in November.<\/p>\n

Dig deep into mushrooms<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

Mushrooms are another sign of autumn in the Northwest \u2014 and that includes not only chanterelles and other gourmet specimens but also the consciousness-altering variety. The latter type are the focus of \u201cMushrooms for Planetary Consciousness<\/a><\/b>,\u201d happening Sunday, Nov. 9, in Olympia. The event, featuring local mycologist Paul Stamets<\/b> and fellow expert Dr. Michael Beug<\/b>, will explore the history and science of psilocybin mushrooms and analogs. Sponsored by Fungi Perfecti and the Olympia Film Society, the event begins at 7 p.m. at the Capitol Theater, 206 Fifth Ave. SE, Olympia, with doors open at 6. Tickets are $18.25-$23.35.<\/p>\n
