Glitterfox

Glitterfox doesn’t chase the algorithm—they follow instinct, community, and a kind of magia(Basque for magic). Formed by longtime creative partners Solange Igoa and Andrea Walker, thePortland-based band has built their career the analog way: a van, a map, and unforgettableshows stitched across towns like constellations. Their rise has been defined by raw connectionand fearless self-expression, with music that fuses garage rock grit, new wave shimmer,southern Americana soul, and a dancefloor pulse—all tangled with heart and heat until whatemerges is unmistakably, inimitably Glitterfox.

Fox and Bones

Scott Gilmore and Sarah Vitort are Fox and Bones—energetic offbeat folksters with a retro-tinged, soul-stirring, modern vintage bent. Their hardworking artistic output has earned them first place at the 2023 Tucson Folk Festival songwriting contest and second place in the International Acoustic Music Awards, amongst other accolades. In between their rigorous tour schedule, the duo founded Portland’s Folk Festival; an annual celebration of folk and Americana music at the iconic Crystal Ballroom in their hometown of Portland, Oregon.

Opening Reception: Friday, June 6, 5:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m.

Currently featured at ART on FIRST are emotionally charged narrative paintings by Carol Aust. Carol's compositions are filled with intense emotional stories infused with mysterious tension and secrecy. She often places her figures in precarious environments where anything could happen. Sometimes celebratory, sometimes lonely and disturbing, her paintings express a wide range of human desire and yearning. Carol’s artwork consistently features strong and vibrant colors along with figures that are both engaging and vulnerable.

We noticed that a lot of places in Ashland do something cool for First Friday. So, sure, we'll be followers this time.

We're calling it First Friday Flights! Or maybe we're calling it the Empanada Throwdown!

Either way, it's a music, food, and wine event that you should definitely join! Here's the deal:

Freshly made local empanadas from Caba Empanadas
Lovely fall wines from Resistance Wine Co (that's us!)

You could pretty much hang out all day if you want. But if you just want to pop in for a few empanadas/pours, you could have plenty of time left to visit all the other galleries.

Also, we have some art so you don't just have to look at that weird friend you invited... But, still, bring your friends.

$20.00 Wine tastings + whatever an empanada cost in 2025.

Take time to nurture your creativity. In this four-session series, we will explore ways to use writing for self-expression, create short pieces of writing based on weekly themes, and incorporate other types of artistic practices into our writing.

No writing experience is necessary - just an interest in being creative in a fun, supportive environment!

Tuesdays, May 13 and 27; June 3 and 10, 2025

Have you ever discussed with family and friends how to escape utility price hikes by going solar? Not everyone can quickly throw a few solar panels on their roof and join the burgeoning community of solar-powered homes. Going solar doesn’t require leaving the grid; many solar-powered homes remain grid-tied so folks can use the grid source when the sun isn’t shining but can vastly reduce their consumption of grid power and suffering its ever-increasing cost.
Nicole Maticic, Program Manager with Solar Oregon will join us at our June 24th open public meeting to help us understand how solar energy and battery systems work and share information about incentives for reducing our dependence on the utilities. The meeting will be from 6:00 – 7:30 pm on Tuesday June 24th at the Medford Public Library, 205 S. Central Avenue, Medford.
This monthly program is consistent with SOCAN’s interest in encouraging Southern Oregonians to electrify their lives as much as possible. Nicole will be joined by energy industry professionals, along with local enterprises and non-profits that support homeowners in solarizing and electrifying their homes. The program will answer Southern Oregonians’ questions about the advantages and disadvantages of solarizing as well the financial aspects of reducing grid consumption of electricity including finding incentives.
