Once a week, Jason Slyter sends out an email newsletter informing Humboldt County about events happening that week. These are mostly music and community dancing events, and I find this to be a great service Jason is putting together for the rest of us. Please send him an email to be included in the list, I’ll do my best to update this post here. Jason does this for free and says people are invited to donate their gratuity forward by going out and supporting the venues/artists.
