Downtown Bellingham came alive with music over the weekend of Jan. 23 with Paper Whale’s Fire & Story coinciding with the Bellingham Folk Festival. Here are a series of photos from Friday and Saturday night at both events. The first 14 photos are from Fire & Story at the Bellingham waterfront and the last four are from various events during the folk festival.
