Based in Los Angeles, Zaragoza’s indigenous roots inform her artistry.
“The Native community in LA has been a huge part of my life since I moved here at 14,” she Zaragoza says. “Indigenous artists aren’t played on the radio or given space in mainstream publications enough, so I do what I can to be as proud as I can and pave the way for other artists too.”
Zaragoza first drew national attention in 2016 with the song “In The River,” written in protest of the Dakota Access Pipeline.
Her 2020 album “Woman of Color” was recognized in NPR’s “Best Protest Music” of 2020.
In introducing her Tiny Desk concert, NPR wrote: “Zaragoza is a natural performer, able to go big … or pare it all back.”
A feminist undercurrent courses throughout “Hold That Spirit,” Zaragoza’s most recent album. The meditative folk ballad “Strong Woman,” celebrates a world led and built by women.
The concert, produced by the Tolovana Arts Colony, is offered free of charge. Donations are encouraged.
The show begins at 7:00PM. Doors open at 6:30PM. And opening act is to be announced.
The Coaster Theatre is located at 108 N Hemlock St in Cannon Beach.

The Price of Awakening
In time we come to know, welcome in our daily lives
the understanding that there is no saving grace
in misleading. Deep and real differences may define
our families and friendships but we realize
there will be no lasting peace in lies and using others.
Anchoring these times and spaces of our lives,
we can listen to the timeless voices of ancestors
and the integrity of respected friends, “Through love alone
will hate be healed.” We all know we have awakened
many times before, left behind a passing ignorance,
the restless ways of wanting, hatred, and fear. Slowly,
we are abandoning the belief that a man or woman can
own another, assume or create a relation that does not
recognize the inherent rights and dignity of the other.
At work, as in marriage, our community, and civic relations,
this entitlement is now a birthright, an achievement of what
is best in all of us. We are awakening, slowly reaching
the understanding that war is not sustainable.
The war in Vietnam, the war in Iraq, Gaza, wherever conflict
appears, we are coming to know that war profits
a very small minority. For too long we have listened to
to all their lies, the reasons why our sons and daughters
must continue to be sacrificed for profit, why it is
that those who have had the most, generation after
generation, merit further privileges to accumulate more.
There is no saving grace in being misled. We are also awakening
to the precious and fragile gift of our democracy, how our voice
and vote is equal to any other. Will it ever be easy to recognize,
accept, and release how we have been deceived?
Each of us knows a deeply visceral answer to this question.
But as the typhoons come and the tornadoes grow stronger,
as species extinction accelerates, and our divorce rates
incline, as our coastal cities submerge and our mothers and
fathers die of unrelenting heat, we can awaken, recognize
how we have been used. What comes to mind when we hear
their deceitful and barren platforms full of hateful intentions?
They assert that we should deport millions of men and women,
persons who are seeking, as we have sought, a better life,
or listening to their call for ever deeper extraction of oil and gas,
what comes to mind is a wounded little boy stepping down
from a now infamous bus, “They just let you do it.” May we all
be granted the integrity to awaken and unity be restored.
This brief walks through the facts about actions taken under both the Trump and Biden Administrations related to capping insulin copayments for people with Medicare and explains the differences between their approaches.
What did the Trump Administration do?
What did the Biden Administration do?
What are the key differences between these approaches?
What the November election could mean for people who need insulin.
We are looking for one in hopefully excellent condition, a built in model, standard sized, and in the fairly quiet genre.

Wheeler – Oregon’s Hampton Lumber has made an extraordinary contribution to the new Nehalem Bay Health Center and Pharmacy by donating the dimension lumber needed to construct the 16,000 square foot facility in Wheeler, Oregon.
The new medical center and pharmacy is under construction with an expected completion in September 2025. The new Health Center will replace and dramatically upgrade an aging and too small clinic that has served the community since the 1980’s.
“This is simply an extraordinary contribution from Hampton Lumber to our project and to the community,” said Marc C. Johnson, president of the Nehalem Bay Health District, the owner and developer of the new Health Center. “On behalf of our board of directors and our community we say – thank you so very much to the management and workforce at Hampton Lumber. We could not be more grateful for this generosity.”
The value of the donated material is in excess of $50,000.
“We’re proud to produce building materials from responsibly-managed forests here on Oregon’s North Coast,” said Kristin Rasmussen, Director of Public Affairs and Communications for Hampton Lumber. “It’s particularly rewarding to see our products contribute to essential infrastructure projects in local communities.”
Hampton Lumber’s gift allows the Health District to conserve some portion of the bond funds approved by District voters in 2023 in order facilitate other District priorities, including the ongoing renovation of the Nehalem Valley Care Center, a skilled nursing facility in Wheeler and the eventual development of workforce housing for health care and other essential workers.
Johnson said he hopes that other firms and individuals will follow Hampton Lumber’s generous lead and consider donations to the Health District’s projects dedicated to improving health and senior care on the north coast.
Johnson said the Hampton Lumber contribution is also significant in that it means the new facility will be constructed with timber grown and manufactured near the new facility. The lumber used on the project will be processed Hampton Lumber’s mill in Warrenton, Oregon.
