At Made with Love Bakery (West Spokane), artist Faye Griffiths displays vibrant watercolors and screen-printed designs inspired by her love for birds and red-roofed cottages.

The 74-year-old returned to art after a long break and updates her pieces monthly.

Downtown Spokane Partnership reported first-quarter foot traffic rose nearly 2% compared to last year.

January and February saw record visits, and March increased 27% from February (events and more out-of-town visitors drove the boost).

Multiple Earth Day events take place later this month across Inland NW.

Highlights include a Spokane River cleanup at High Bridge Park this Saturday from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. with refreshments from PNW Espressgo + food trucks and additional volunteer projects at local libraries, wildlife refuges, and City Beach.

Spokane County Parks approved rules to allow Class 1 and Class 3 e-bikes on trails at John H.

Former Gonzaga guard Ryan Nembhard broke the Dallas Mavericks’ rookie assist record Sunday with 23 assists, 15 points and 9 rebounds against the Bulls.

The standout game capped his rookie season—earning him a standard contract—and he plans to improve further this summer.

Paul Hutson III, a WSU defensive lineman, called himself the best playmaker after a busy spring practice — his strong performance and the Cougars’ depth with new transfers set high hopes for a competitive fall schedule in Pac-12 matchups.

The transfer, who averaged 2.1 blocks as a freshman, could boost the Bulldogs’ frontcourt with added rim protection.
