Lo Steele – Free Concert in the Park in Cannon Beach, Sept 25

Soul, Jazz and R&B artist Lo Steele Performs Free Concert in the Park, Sept 25 in Cannon Beach
A multifaceted performer whose palette includes acting, poetry and music, Lo Steele brings her soul, jazz and R&B influenced band to Cannon Beach for a free concert in the park on Sunday, September 25th.
As the daughter of “Portland’s first lady of the blues” LaRhonda Steele, Lo grew up on and around stages. But, according to the Willamette Week, Lo is “a force to be reckoned with on her own.”

“Radiating a spirit of continual growth and community, her songs offer affirmations through self-reflection and a relatable humor, coupled with her vocal command and understated soul-jazz melodies,” the WW continues, adding that Lo’s “healing-through-boogie” music “shouldn’t be slept on.”

In addition to Steele’s performance, members of the Tolovana Arts Colony will be displaying some of their artwork as a fundraising effort.

The free, family friendly event, in Cannon Beach’s downtown city park, begins at 5:00PM. Attendees are encouraged to bring blankets, low-backed chairs and fully stocked picnic baskets. Dogs, Frisbees, soccer balls and the like are welcome too.

The park is located in downtown Cannon Beach, northeast of the Chamber of Commerce at 2nd & Spruce.

The concert is produced by the Tolovana Arts Colony and made possible by a Community Grant from the City of Cannon Beach.

For more information, visit tolovanaartscolony.org, email tolovanaartscolony@gmail.com, or call 541-215-4445.

An invitation to a unique conversation

Submitted By: constance@nehalemtel.net – Click to email about this post
“Understanding Urban/Rural Divides” is the topic for a free public discussion to be held Tuesday, September 20 at 7:00 p.m. at Tillamook Bay Community College, Room 214/215.
This conversation is presented by Oregon Humanities. Local sponsors are Tillamook County Pioneer and Tillamook County Democratic Central Committee (TCDCC). Nick Nash, a teacher of philosophy at Blue Mountain Community College in Pendleton, is the conversation moderator.

The conversation will focus on questions such as:
What is the urban/rural divide, and how do we understand it? / How does the urban/rural divide affect the ways we relate to each other as Oregonians? / How does this divide affect our day-to-day lives and our experiences of being governed?

We live in a time of increasing polarization that often correlates to divides between urban and rural regions in our state. Polarization is so extreme that it often seems like the two sides may have completely different experiences of the world. This conversation is a chance to reflect on the beliefs we have about our urban or rural neighbors with a focus on discovering and abandoning misbeliefs, investigating and learning about the real differences between the urban and the rural, and trying to find things that we all share as Oregonians. The conversation is an opportunity to listen to, share with, and learn from each other.

An RSVP is welcomed and not required for attendance. RSVP to goverancechair@tillcodems.org

It seems that I’m not the only one out here who loves plants and tea!

Our garden tours and tea tastings on Saturday have been very popular. So much so that I’ve decided to add more days in September!

Please come out and play in the garden with me this Saturday at 10am and next week Thursday and Saturday at 10am!

You get to taste 4 of our farm to teacup blends while you tour our tea plants and medicinal herbs. I encourage you to touch, taste, smell and interact with the gardens as we go.

The experience takes about an hour, with extra time at the end for shopping in our adorable tea tasting room and art gallery!
