BOOKS AFTER HOURS
SAT. DEC. 13, 5:30 PM

Author Jamie Mustard will join me in a conversation about his newest book
CHILD X: A MEMOIR OF SLAVERY, POVERTY, CELEBRITY, AND SCIENTOLOGY.

Jamie Mustard was born into one of the most influential fringe movements in the 1970s: Scientology.

Raised on a mythos of spaceships and made to believe his life’s purpose was to help save the world, he was determined to survive not only neglect but also the physical and psychological damage caused by extreme poverty and illiteracy.

“A vivid, compelling and heartrending memoir.” —Booklist

“Evocative . . . a powerful memoir that takes us down the darkest corridors of Scientology.” —Kirkus Reviews

Winter Songs – Kathryn Claire

Winter Songs – Seasonal Music to Celebrate the Darkest Nights

December 12th | White Clover Grange | Nehalem, OR
5pm (doors at 4:30pm)
$20 (adult) $10 (kids)

An intimate concert of light, warmth, and community through song.

As winter settles in and the days grow short, Kathryn Claire invites audiences to gather for Winter Songs — an evening of music that honors the season and celebrates the beauty found in darkness.

Drawing inspiration from winter’s stillness and renewal, Winter Songs weaves together original compositions, traditional melodies, and select covers. With shimmering strings, lush harmonies, and stirring instrumentals, the music reminds us that even in the darkest nights, there is the promise of returning light.

Winter Songs features the radiant trio of Kathryn Claire (vocals, guitar, violin), Don Henson (piano, percussion), and Sid Ditson (violin, viola). Their chemistry on stage is joyful and deeply felt. They seamlessly blend classical finesse, folk roots, and cinematic soundscapes into a heartfelt tapestry of sound.

Kathryn has been performing seasonal winter shows since 2013, evolving Winter Songs into a beloved tradition. In 2022, the trio released an EP featuring Kathryn’s original music written for the show, along with the single “Dark of December.”

“Winter Songs is my way of embracing the darkness and finding beauty within it,” says Claire. “It’s a time to slow down, gather together, and remember that the light always returns.”

Join Kathryn, Don, and Sid for an evening of music at the White Clover Grange that welcomes winter with open arms, and creates a space to pause, reflect, and celebrate the turning of the season.
