2027 Musselfest Poster Contest

Thank you to every artist who submitted a design! We have received nearly 90 submissions, from those right down the street to as far away as Brazil and India! We are incredibly grateful and amazed of how many of you care about not only the contest but Musselfest! It is our biggest event of the year and something we are deeply proud of.

Once again, thank you! Please be patient as we go through your beautiful artwork.

Practically Magic

Guided Tours

For 2026, CHWA is making big moves to create its annual Practically Magic even more engaging and fantastical! In addition to the Torchlight Parade, the Great Pumpkin Race, and Practical Magic movie nights, we will be hosting guided tours every Saturday from September 12 through October 24. During these tours, guests will be led deep into the lore of witchcraft and the spooky history of
Coupeville’s Hollywood famous downtown waterfront.

This is where you come in! We are looking for passionate folks to be our tour guides! Do you live for Practical Magic? Fancy yourself a witch? Share your love for the season with others! And, get paid for it?!
