Neighbors Night: 7 p.m. Jan. 7, Red Curtain Arts Center, 9315 State Ave. Suite J, Marysville. Hear the tale of the “Mudswallows House,” told in English and Lushootseed, a Coast Salish language, then decorate a bird house. In the story, all the birds gather to learn how to make their homes. Mudswallow wanted to talk while being instructed, so when it comes time to build she doesn’t know how to make her home. Admission is $5 for adults, and free for all children. Refreshments are available for purchase at the snack bar.
