Community Calendar

Rogue Valley Growers and Crafters Market is a richly woven tapestry of farmers, ranchers, crafters, food processors, board and staff dedicated to the land at-large and our beautiful valley community in particular.

We're dedicated to putting our utmost effort and passion into the soil and food that sustains you. Through hard work and innovative practices, we strive to provide the best. During the outdoor season, we host up to three markets a week for the best access to the incredible bounty our bioregion has to offer.

August Exhibition at ART ON FIRST: Mosaics Big and Little - Suzanne Hatch and Joi Tripp

Monday, July 28 - Monday, September 1, 11:00 p.m. - 6:00 p.m.
Opening Reception: Friday, August 1, 5:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m.

Currently featured at ART on FIRST are mosaics by Suzanne Hatch and Joi Tripp. Suzanne creates mosaic artwork using glass, metal, ceramics, and semi-precious stones to form intricate designs. For many of her pieces, she builds a three dimensional substrate that begins with chicken wire, plaster, and mortar. Alternatively, Joi brings the timeless art of micro-mosaics to life. She cuts and files tiny glass rods into pieces averaging 2mm x 2mm. These small pieces are then placed into an epoxy adhesive bed that is permanent.

Open Meditation for All in The Sanctuary
Wednesdays from noon to 1:00 pm

Each Wednesday from noon to 1:00 pm, the KSC Sanctuary will be open to all for meditation. We invite you to come and meditate quietly in your own way.

We have a wide assortment of food available. Bags with staple items are pre-filled, but we will gladly add any special requests if they are available. When you visit, there is always a simple lunch. On the last Wednesday of every month, we serve a pretty darned good hot meal with salad and a huge table filled with pies and desserts. We call it a community lunch. All are welcomed.
