The historic Mount Baker Theatre has been a venue for performances of the Mt. Baker Ballet on numerous occaisons over the past 30 years. Last spring the Bellingham based ballet company shared the Mt.

The Cartwright Creative Group is credited with this innovative idea promoting both Wilson Toyota and the regional dance company Mount Baker Ballet. Bellingham Herald photographer Philip A.
