What might have happened if Liberace and Liza Minelli had shared a stage? They didn’t, of course, but this wildly improbable and completely irresistible show imagines what it might have been like if they did. The SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE called it: “Surreal, yet oddly perfect!” Equal parts tribute, improv, and full-on fever dream, the show blends virtuosic piano playing, powerhouse vocals, and more sequins than is strictly necessary. The setlist swings rom Cabaret and Gershwin to hilarious re-imaginings of Britney Spears and Lady Gaga. NCRD PERFORMING ARTS CENTER Saturday, November 1st, 7:00 p.m. Reserved seating $30, general admission $25, available at www.tickettomato.com/event/9671.
PG-13.

Competitive improvisational comedy! This is a hilarious production in which the audience suggests all the skits and the two teams take turns improvising.
ComedySportz (Portland) is part of an award-winning national network which had produced over 5,000 shows in Portland and won three world titles. A referee calls the action and calls penalties for anything off color, so its family friendly! October 18th at the NCRD Performing Arts Center, 7:00 p.m. Reserved seating $25, general admission $20, available at www.tickettomato.com/event/9648. Thanks to all our community volunteers and sponsors who make these great shows possible!

We aren’t afraid of a little rain, but the forecast for next week is looking gorgeous! We’ve moved the date for our upcoming Headwaters Walk & Picnic Social to next Wednesday, October 8th. We hope you will still be able to join us.

Meet at 11:30AM at the South Neahkahnie Trailhead* for a walk down LNCT’s Headwater’s trail to our stewardship benches. Paper bag your lunch and enjoy a midday break outside with friends. The walk is ~2.5 miles round trip, with a gentle incline.

Note—the Headwaters trail is uneven and mildly steep in some areas. To access the Headwaters Trail, we will meet at the Neahkahnie Mountain South Trailhead parking lot and walk down from there. Plan to wear shoes with a decent tread and dress for the weather.

*To reach the South Neahkahnie Trailhead, drive north on highway 101 from Manzanita about 2 miles. Between mileposts 41 and 41, turn right on road 38555. Keep to the right up the dirt road until you reach a small parking lot and signage, about 1/2 mile.

Matter Made Me: Collage Your Mannequin Art Workshop
Saturday, October 4th 4pm to 8pm
@ HeartWorks Studio | 395 Nehalem Blvd, Wheeler OR 97147

Take a blank mannequin torso, a table full of reclaimed materials, and your imagination; and turn it into a one-of-a-kind narrative sculpture. This workshop invites you to decorate, collage, and transform a salvaged mannequin, layering memory, meaning, and personal reflection. Our goal will be to use discards to spark stories about who we are, where we’ve been, and what worlds we can imagine.

Over four hours, you’ll be guided through a simple but powerful structure:

Framing the Why – We’ll begin with prompts and reflection on the role of discarded materials. What stories emerge when we build from what’s been set aside? If this mannequin could speak, what would it say about the world it comes from? Could these fragments become a personal story, a cultural memory, or a fantasy of what might be? Is this figure armor, adornment, dream, or warning?

The Build – You’ll collage, layer, and transform your mannequin with discarded fabric, sheet music, corks, buttons, wire, broken jewelry, and other salvaged materials. Facilitators will circulate with questions to help you explore: Are you rebuilding a self from rubble? Mapping a body out of memory? Giving form to a future being?

The Circle – We’ll close by sharing the figures and their stories: what they carry, what they reveal, and what surprised you along the way.

Expect costumes, shields, altars, or ghosts, or something that doesn’t yet have a name.

All materials provided.
No experience necessary—curiosity is the only skill you need.

Participants will have the option to feature and sell their finished work in a community pop-up exhibit at HeartWorks Studio following the workshop (dates TBD).

Torsos are limited!
Tickets available at www.heartofcartm.org/workshops
