Do you like to dance? Do you enjoy social activities that include movement and live music? Then Contra Dance is for you! And if you have interest not only in dancing, but also in helping other folks to learn, or possibly starting a dance in your own area, then this upcoming Callers' Workshop is for you!

Stacy Rose is not only an experienced contra and square dance caller, musician, and international folk dancer, she also is experienced in teaching others how to call contras, squares, and other forms of folk dance. We are extremely lucky that she has agreed to come to Scott Valley the first weekend of November to provide this workshop. If you are interested, contact me to sign up!

We also will need folks to come and dance on the evening of November 8th, from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m., so that folks who have taken the workshop and are eager to start practicing their new skills will have an opportunity to do so. Please plan to attend, to support the new callers!

November is the month of remembrance. In this class we will create a story representing a memory. It could be a loved one, pet, friend. I will share different ways to create a story using items, words and collage to represent the story you would like to tell. I will show you how to create a simple “memory box” and add photos and found items. I will also cover how to create a memory paper doll using a template and collage.

Please bring to class photo or photos you would like to use. NO larger than 6x8”. Ink jet is fine. You can also choose to use the actual photo if you prefer. Any extra small items that could be added to your box, which will be 1” deep – paper images, scraps of fabric, small items that could be added to the box.

Learn four basic stitches and get a small stitching project to work on. Class will be taught by the Southern Oregon Stitchers (a chapter of the Embroiderers’ Guild of America). Stitching supplies will be provided. Class is for adults 18 years or older, or anyone who is 12-17 years old and is attending with an adult. Registration is required.

Join Southern Oregon Repertory Singers for an unforgettable set of concerts this November that will feature the beauty and fragility of life and the wonder of the natural world. These themes are explored in a concert of “big-heart” music highlighted by Johannes Brahms’ lush, mini-masterpiece, “Nänie”; Latvian sensation, Ēriks Ešenvalds’ evocative “Northern Lights” for choir and tuned water glasses; Lucy Walker’s lyrical setting of Sara Teasdale’s anti-war poem, “There will come soft rains”; crossover music by Dolly Parton and Jacob Collier; and Jodi French’s poignant “Life has loveliness to sell”, which sets Sara Teasdale’s lovely poem “Barter” reminding us that beauty is all around, and exhorting all to: “Spend all you have for loveliness, buy it and never count the cost… and for a breath of ecstasy, give all you have been, or could be.”
