Upcoming Events

Sanctuary as a Mindset
September 27, 2026 & October 3, 2026 • 9:30am
Wolf Haven International • Tenino, WA
"Sanctuary as a Mindset: a contemplative experience at Wolf Haven International" is an opportunity for guests to enjoy a quiet, peaceful visit that reflects our sanctuary philosophy. Participants can explore different avenues for respectfully and creatively embracing the presence of sanctuary wolves in a non-invasive and non-threatening way (quiet contemplation and appreciation, drawing, writing, etc). The time in the sanctuary will mostly be in silence.

Edmonds College
October 9, 16, & 23, 2026 • VIRTUAL CLASS
Learn directly from Wolf Haven in this non-credit Continuing Education class with Edmonds College! Explore who we are and what we do for wolves. Delve into the world of wolves in North America to discover why some are endangered and others aren't, while none of them roam their historic range. We'll also take a look at just how resilient and adaptable these creatures really are.
The class meets three different times in October over Zoom.
