the remarkable diversity of bird species traveling the Pacific Flyway. Since its founding in 1996, the festival has become a cornerstone of environmental education and community engagement, drawing bird enthusiasts, nature lovers, and conservationists from near and far to Humboldt County.

The Arcata Community Center will serve as the festival hub, where visitors can explore art from local artists, browse optics and books, meet nonprofit organizations, and participate in a silent auction. One highlight will be a stunning display of more than 800 student bird art entries.

Community members are invited to join the Godwit Days crew at Humbrews on Thursday, March 19, starting at 4 p.m., to enjoy a pint and support Humboldt County’s cherished birding festival. More details and festival registration are available at www.godwitdays.org.
