SUMMARY:Irving Berlin's White Christmas at Lakewood Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Lakewood Theatre Company\, now in its 74th season\, stages the Irving Berlin musical about two song-and-dance men\, a sister act and a Vermont inn that needs rescuing. Expect the title song\, big tap numbers and a stage full of snow. Directed by Don Alder\, it runs six weeks from early November to just before Christmas at the Lakewood Center for the Arts on State Street\, close to downtown Lake Oswego's restaurants and lit-up storefronts for dinner before the curtain.

SUMMARY:Seattle Forest Week Volunteer Plantings
DESCRIPTION:Every November\, the Green Seattle Partnership kicks off planting season with a week of volunteer work parties in parks and natural areas across the city.

Baker Park\, and Saturday\, Nov. 14\, restoring salmon-friendly shoreline along Lake Washington Boulevard South with views toward Seward Park. Both run 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Wear boots and layers you don't mind getting muddy.

SUMMARY:Bellevue Downtown Ice Rink
DESCRIPTION:For a little over nine weeks\, a seasonal rink sets up on the plaza at Bellevue Downtown Park\, with the waterfall and the downtown towers as a backdrop. Skate rental is included in every ticket. Regular sessions are $16\, rising to $22 on weekends and $24 over the winter break from Dec. 18 to Jan. 3\, while Cheapskate Mondays drop to $12 outside the holidays. The rink runs themed skate days through the season and offers free beginner lessons\, so it's a decent place for a first time on ice. Snowflake Lane is a short walk away.

SUMMARY:WildLanterns at Woodland Park Zoo
DESCRIPTION:Woodland Park Zoo's winter light festival swaps strings of bulbs for large illuminated lanterns shaped like animals and habitats\, set along the zoo's paths after dark. It runs from mid-November well past the holidays\, into mid-January\, which makes it one of the few big light shows still glowing after New Year's. Gates open at 4 p.m. with last entry at 8:30\, and select Night Owls evenings are 21-and-over with ID checks at the door. Tickets are sold online\, separate from daytime zoo admission\, and members get 20 percent off when logged in.

SUMMARY:Arts at the Armory
DESCRIPTION:Tacoma Arts Month closes with a two-day market in the cavernous 1909 Tacoma Armory\, where more than 100 local artists sell fine art\, ceramics\, fiber\, jewelry and handmade goods. Now in its sixth year at the Armory\, the market makes an early start on holiday shopping that keeps the money in Tacoma studios. Food vendors serve warm meals and drinks inside\, and the event is all-ages and stroller-friendly. Street parking around S Yakima Avenue is a mix of free and paid.

SUMMARY:Little Shop of Horrors at Portland Center Stage
DESCRIPTION:Portland Center Stage counter-programs the season of goodwill with a brand-new production of the cult musical about a shy florist and the bloodthirsty plant that makes him famous. Chip Miller directs the doo-wop score and dark comedy on the Main Stage at The Armory\, the company's historic home in the Pearl. It runs through Christmas Eve\, so it's a fun alternative for anyone who's had enough Nutcracker\, and a natural date night paired with dinner in the neighborhood.

SUMMARY:Hillsdale Farmers Market
DESCRIPTION:Southwest Portland's Sunday market\, now set up in the Rieke Elementary parking lot on SW Vermont\, runs every week until Thanksgiving before switching to a twice-a-month winter schedule. It draws a loyal crowd from Hillsdale\, Multnomah Village and the surrounding hills\, and the three Sundays before the holiday are the best chance to stock up while the full roster is still coming. Extra parking is available at the back entrance of Ida B. Wells High School next door.

SUMMARY:Ballard Farmers Market
DESCRIPTION:Seattle's first year-round neighborhood farmers market has filled the cobblestone stretch of Ballard Avenue NW every Sunday since 2000\, and the produce comes only from Washington farms. In winter the stalls lean toward storage crops\, meat\, eggs and baked goods\, with makers' tables mixed in\, and the market runs from NW Market Street down to 20th Avenue NW. Street meters are free on Sundays\, and the online vendor map is refreshed every Friday by 5 p.m. if you're after a particular farm. Rain doesn't cancel it\, so bring a hood and make a slow morning of the avenue's cafes afterward.

SUMMARY:West Seattle Farmers Market
DESCRIPTION:In the heart of the Junction at California and Alaska\, West Seattle's market runs every Sunday morning through the winter\, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Think of it as a neighborhood shop more than a destination: farm produce\, meat\, eggs and bread\, with the Junction's coffee shops and bookstores a few steps away. Nov. 8 is Applelooza\, a tasting of Washington-grown apples that's a good excuse to learn a few new varieties. SNAP users can pay with an EBT card directly at select farm stands here\, and the C Line stops right at the corner.

SUMMARY:King Farmers Market
DESCRIPTION:The King neighborhood's Sunday market closes for the year on November 22\, so its last three Sundays are a good reason to wander over before Thanksgiving. About 30 regional farmers and food makers set up in the lot beside King Elementary at NE 7th and Wygant\, between Alberta and Prescott. It's compact and walkable\, with a neighborhood crowd rather than a tourist one. SNAP shoppers can get up to $20 matched through Double Up Food Bucks.

SUMMARY:Lents International Farmers Market
DESCRIPTION:Started in 2006 to bring fresh\, culturally relevant produce to one of Southeast Portland's most diverse neighborhoods\, the Lents market runs its final Sundays through November 22. Around a dozen growers and food makers set up in The ZED parking lot at SE 92nd and Reedway\, and the vendor mix changes week to week. Live music plays from 1 to 3 p.m.\, and kids can try food activities at the information booth. Small\, friendly and very much a neighborhood market.

SUMMARY:Fremont Sunday Market
DESCRIPTION:Fremont's European-style street market has run for more than 35 years\, and it doesn't take the winter off. From November on it moves under cover at the Fremont Bridge location\, which is heated\, with a second covered spot on 34th next to the market's own Sundays Coffee. Expect a mix of vintage and flea finds\, local artisans and a curbside row of food trucks that makes it a decent brunch plan. Ballard's farmers market is a two-minute drive west if you want to make a morning of both.

DESCRIPTION:The Denny Way entrance to Capitol Hill Station opens straight onto this market\, which sets up on E Barbara Bailey Way between Broadway and 10th every Sunday of the year. Winter hours stay at 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.\, a late enough start for brunch first. Expect Washington farm produce\, meat and baked goods\, and on Nov. 15 the market hosts Applelooza\, a tasting of the wide range of apples grown around the state. Street parking is free on Sundays\, though it fills fast on the Hill.

SUMMARY:Garden Tea Tastings at Lan Su Chinese Garden
DESCRIPTION:A tea master from Lan Su's Yun Shui Teahouse pours three seasonal Chinese and Taiwanese teas for a group of no more than eight\, in one of the garden's pavilions. Over an hour you'll hear where each tea comes from\, how it's processed and brewed\, and what it means culturally\, then take home a porcelain teacup. Garden admission is included\, so plan to wander the courtyards afterward. It's a quiet\, grown-up way to spend a rainy winter afternoon in Old Town.
