This August, the iconic "Northwest Trolls" are turning one. This set of six giant trolls, five of which are located in or near Seattle, have been quite the talk of the town since they first spawned in the PNW last year.

Created by Danish environmental artist Thomas Dambo, these mystical wooden figures have led curious visitors on quite the excursion — you have to use the troll map to hunt them down, since their locations are supposed to be hush hush.

To celebrate the installation's widespread success + the start of the trolls' "terrible twos,"lol Nordic Design Foundation is hosting free whimsical events:

Community Restoration Event for Bruun Idun | Sunday, Aug. 25 | 10 a.m.-12 p.m. | Lincoln Park | Help restore Bruun Idun's natural habitat and make space for winter planting season.
