Rally to Protect Drinking Water

and Foster Community Engagement

Thursday, April 25 at 6:30 pm

St. Mary-by-the-Sea Parish Hall

275 S. Pacific St.

Rockaway Beach, Oregon

This will be a grassroots meeting, open to all, who believe we have a right to abundant, safe and clean drinking water. If you are interested in citizen involvement regarding the future of the Jetty Creek Watershed and other coastal drinking water sheds, please attend. At the Oregon Coast, many watersheds that provide drinking water to towns, large and small, have been damaged by clearcutting followed by pesticide spraying. Because of industrial forestry practices and climate change, there are now summer water shortages along the Oregon Coast.

Please join us on April 25 (and on the last Thursday of every month) at St. Mary-by-the-Sea to learn about and discuss these important issues.

This will be an “in-person” meeting that will also be on Zoom (email us at the address below) for those unable to attend in person.

North Coast Communities for Watershed Protection (NCCWP) invites respectful discussion through a sharing of ideas.

Dance, Edie, Dance!

April 20th at 7:30pm
The Ten Fifteen Theater
1015 Commercial St – Astoria
www.thetenfifteentheater.com

Drag Sensation EDIE has heard those three words her entire life. First from her parents insisting she perform for guests in the living room of their family home in Portland, OR. Then from her dance teacher who gave her the skills and the confidence to take on the world. From Ballet to Broadway to Cirque du Soleil, EDIE has taken those three words to heart. Dance, Edie, Dance is a culmination of her love of life-long love of dance and all the places her long legs have taken her throughout her storied career.

EDIE is best known from Cirque du Soleil’s hit show ZUMANITY where she starred as the emcee, the “Mistress of Sensuality,” at the NY-NY Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas. During her 13 year run, EDIE performed over 5,600 shows for over 6 million people. EDIE began her professional dance career at the age of 17 with Ballet Oregon. For the next eleven years she danced with Pacific Northwest Ballet, Ballet Chicago, and Pennsylvania Ballet before moving to New York to pursue musical theater. EDIE quickly became a fixture in New York City where she racked up a bevy of awards including Best Drag Queen (HX Award), Best Dance Artist and Entertainer of the Year (Glammy Award). She starred in her autobiographical, off-Broadway show “LEGS!,” performed on the MTV Video Music Awards, appeared on “Sex and the City,” was featured at Wigstock and Broadway Bares, and made her Broadway debut alongside Cyndi Lauper and Alan Cumming in the Tony-nominated revival of “The ThreePenny Opera” at Studio 54. The San Francisco Chronicle “strongly advises seeing the incredible EDIE whose talent and legs go on forever.”

You can learn more about Edie at www.edieentertainer.com.

Dance, Edie, Dance is a special event, and is not included in the 2024 season ticket package. This show is not eligible for Flex Passes or the Arts for All program.

When searching for a better life, immigrants often leave their families behind. Author Sindya Bhanoo will share South Indian immigrants’ stories in her prize-winning novel, “Seeking Fortune Elsewhere,” when she visits the Cannon Beach Library at 2 p.m. Saturday, April 20.

Her presentation also will be available through the library’s website, cannonbeachlibrary.org

Bhanoo’s appearance is part of the Oregon Book Awards Authors Tour, presented in partnership with Literary Arts and hosted by the library’s NW Authors Series.

“Seeking Fortune Elsewhere” won the 2023 Ken Kesey Award. The award is part of the Oregon Book Awards, presented annually by Literary Arts to honor and celebrate the work of Oregon’s authors.

“Seeking Fortune Elsewhere” features intimate stories of South Indian immigrants and the families they left behind. It asks how women both claim and surrender power. Occurring in places including Pittsburgh, eastern Washington and Tamil Nadu, these stories focus on dislocation and how immigrants and their families confront the costs of leaving, staying and growing apart,

A fiction writer and journalist Bhanoo also won the New American Voices Award. In 2021, she won an O. Henry Prize. She worked as a reporter for The New York Times and The Washington Post and teaches creative writing and journalism at Oregon State University.

On May 5, 2024, from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm, join May Gallery artist Rose Covert, in a sculptural weaving class. Participants will use beginning basketry techniques including plaiting and twining to start their weave and then will explore using random weave to create a small woven form. Random weave is a freeform weaving style that allows for creative freedom resulting in a unique and interesting design.

Using hand-harvested and locally grown barks to weave into the basketry reed, this workshop will focus on the fundamentals of natural materials and mixed media fiber sculpture. We will learn about the harvesting and processing of the plants so that students will leave with information about gathering what grows near them to use in future projects.

This class is appropriate for all skill levels, no prior weaving experience is necessary. This class is also great for those who have experience with weaving and are looking to increase their weaving vocabulary.

Participants will leave with a woven sculpture that will be unique in size, shape and composition.

Tuition is $145 and includes all materials. Full or partial scholarships are available!

For more information and registration: visit the Hoffman Center for the Arts Website: Hoffmanarts.org
