You will have the opportunity to experiment with black-and-white contrast, adding to the overall wow factor of your decorative pot.

Siskiyou Music Project welcomes back the New West Guitar Trio on Saturday, April 4 at the Grizzly Peak Performance Space in Ashland at 7 p.m. Reservations can be made online at www.siskiyoumusicproject.com

New West Guitars have developed a widespread reputation as one of the premier jazz guitar ensembles in the world. Featuring guitarists Perry Smith (NYC) John Storie (LA) and Will Brahm (LA), they perform exciting originals, jazz standards and popular covers. Their signature sound comes from an innovative style that highlights rhythm, beauty and virtuosity through using classic “archtop style” jazz guitars.

Their new project features instruments from The Blue Guitars Foundation, a legendary collection of vintage “archtop style” jazz guitars. NWG was chosen to represent the newly commissioned guitars through live performances and recordings.

Welcome to the Winter of Rebellion

Our after-hours speakeasy-style series where wine flows, jazz smolders, and comedy keeps things dangerously fun through the winter months. We’re hosting a rotating lineup of intimate nights filled with live jazz, stand-up comedy, and that underground energy you didn’t know you needed this season.

Each evening has its own personality — some nights smooth and soulful, others laugh-out-loud ridiculous — but every night will be one to remember!

Here’s how it works

Show up hungry and ready to relax into sultry jazz music or to laugh so hard you have to try not to spit your wine everywhere.

The Easter Vigil is the climax of the Christian year, which begins after sundown on Holy Saturday with the lighting of the new fire in the parish courtyard, and the procession of the Paschal candle into the dark church. A candlelit service follows, with readings from the Hebrew Bible recounting our journey from creation in the image of God, through the loss of freedom and innocence, to the promise of a new redeemed humanity in eternal loving relationship with God and the whole world. This story comes to life in person among us as we celebrate Holy Baptism, followed by the proclamation of Christ’s resurrection and the first Eucharist of Easter. Incense will be used at this service.

The services of the Holy Week form a single great liturgy. Their meaning and power is cumulative, bringing participants deep into contemplation of the mystery of Christ’s passion and resurrection. That said, even if it only possible to attend one of these services, each highlights a particular aspect of the great Christian drama of redemption.
