Healing Presence: Paintings by Claudia Dose

A selection of intuitive, mixed-media paintings by Oregon-based artist Claudia Dose, currently on view as part of a Clackamas County Arts Alliance exhibition in a local hospital setting.
These works are created through a process of listening and allowing form to emerge, rather than planning or control. The paintings explore themes of inner movement, openness, and the subtle threshold between tension and release.
Placed within a healthcare environment, the intention is simple: to offer moments of pause, reflection, and quiet connection for patients, visitors, and staff.
This exhibition is part of a broader Arts Alliance initiative bringing original artwork into community spaces.

Spring Camp | Any Experience Level (ages 5-18) | $220
Calling all young performers and backstage heroes! Join us for an exhilarating one-week musical theatre camp where kids of all experience levels can dive into the world of stage performance and production. In just one week, our instructors will guide participants through the process of learning, rehearsing, and performing a one-act musical production.
Performers will take the stage, building confidence, teamwork, and creativity through acting, singing, and movement. Meanwhile, the crew will bring the magic to life behind the scenes—assembling the backdrop and set, setting up lights, equipment, and props, and spiking the stage before and after rehearsals. During camp rotations, crew members work as assistants to the instructors, taking blocking notes and learning how to move cast members and set pieces smoothly during the show.
This intensive yet fun-filled experience culminates in a spectacular showcase for friends and family at the end of the week. Unleash your child’s creativity—onstage or behind the scenes—in this unforgettable week of music, laughter, and applause!

The Glass Menagerie
2026-03-22 14:00 - 17:00, 2026-03-21 19:30 - 22:00 | Lakewood Center for the Arts, 368 S. State Street, Lake Oswego, OR, 97034, United States
Lakewood Theatre Company is proud to announce its upcoming production of Tennessee Williams’ timeless memory play, The Glass Menagerie. This classic of the American stage is widely regarded as the play that launched Williams’ career. With a story that resonates as strongly today as it did at its 1944 premiere, The Glass Menagerie is a poetic and poignant exploration of family, memory, and the struggle between responsibility and freedom.
The play, directed by Antonio Sonera, opens at Lakewood Theatre on February 27, 2026, and runs through April 5, 2026. Performances are Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights at 7:30 PM, with one Wednesday performance (Mar. 18) at 7:30 PM, one Saturday matinee at 2:00 PM (Mar. 28), and Sunday matinees at 2:00 PM on Mar. 1, 8, 15, 22, 28, and April 5. The show’s title sponsors are the Lakewood Center Associates, and the directorial sponsor is the Ronni S. Lacroute Fund of Oregon Community Foundation.
Special Note: On Wednesday, March 18, the theater continues its WOW: 25-35 program. For audience members 35 and under, tickets are $30 each. Use the code WOW30 when purchasing tickets online to receive this discount. At this performance, there will be a complimentary wine tasting one hour before the curtain, courtesy of local vineyards. OLCC rules apply! Bring your ID for the tasting!
The story: Set in St. Louis in the 1930s, it is told through the eyes of Tom Wingfield (Mario Calcagno), who recalls life in a cramped apartment with his formidable mother, Amanda (Luisa Sermol), and his fragile sister, Laura (Ariel Puls). As the family struggles with financial instability and shattered dreams, they pin their hopes on the arrival of Jim O’Conner (Spencer Conway), a “gentleman caller,” for Laura.  More than just a play, The Glass Menagerie is an emotional landscape. It captures the universal ache of looking backward—at the family members we loved, the ones we left behind, and the illusions we build to survive reality. It is a story about the fragility of the human heart, as easily broken as glass.
LTC’s production of The Glass Menagerie is directed by Antonio Sonera. The stage manager is Kristen Hartman. Scenic design is by John Gerth, sound design and music composition is by Matthew B. Zrebski, lighting design is by Kristeen Willis, costume design is by Sherry Ostendorf, properties design is by Shelley Aisner, and the producer is Steve Knox.

Lesa has created the magic that only she can with Lady Bridgette Bunny who will be the “diamond” of this season which is March 21st & 22nd. She will require elegant outfits one for each of the three events she attends.
Please read through all of the details, like I said it is going to be a magical event.
On Saturday March 21st this workshop is creating the regal Lady Bridgette Bunny and her resting pedestal all in preparation for the stunning flowers, ruffles, and sparkling details you will create the next day.
On Sunday March 22nd, at this workshop you will create the most elegant attire for the season: The Garden Party, The Swan’s Ball, & A Fine Society. These three stunning outfits, each unique to their event, will be filling our day with creativity and magic. We will start at 10:00 am both days, and expect to finish each day about 4:00 pm “ish”
If that doesn’t have your heart dancing, well let me just add more to your dance card! How much fun will it be to dress the part of Bridgerton on Saturday all of the ruffles and lace, diamonds and sparkle for not only your day of creating but to attend an “in planning” reception to follow. I will be sharing the details of this event once they are finalized. Sunday the attire will be reflected in the theme of “If the Bridgerton Ladies Wore Jeans” what would they wear. I cannot wait to see what you all will wear.
Lunch will be catered both days. I will also be sending those that register a walking/shopping/dining map of our quaint downtown to include a list of activities that may be happening. There are several wonderful coffee shops and restaurants available to you to start your day and wind down in the evening. I am delighted to share our very special city with you.
Everyone will receive a day pass for the parking lot just a few steps South of the store. If you choose not to park in the lot, you will have to move your vehicle multiple times throughout the day. It is truly best to park in the lot.
The store will be filled with a collection of items for purchase that I have curated and reserved specifically for your Lesa Dailey, Bridgerton weekend.
This is a link to register for the workshop. You will pay your deposit now and the second payment by February 15th and the balance on March 15th. (Total weekend is $375.00) This a non refundable workshop. If your plans change, please reach out and we will do our best to help someone purchase your registration, otherwise you will be able to pickup your kits the week following the event.

Join us for a fun-filled workshop where we’ll learn all about native bees. These insects play essential roles in maintaining a balanced ecosystem and are important for pollinating all kinds of plants. But did you know that we have over 4,000 native bees right here in North America, and that many species nest in the ground or plant stems?
We’ll start out the class with a lesson on the different types of native bees here in the Willamette Valley, and the various kinds of habitat they need. Then we will decorate mason bee houses. Students will also receive several mason bee cocoons to start their own colony, seed packets to plant native flowers in their yard, plenty of information on native bees, and a poster with the different native bees found right here in Oregon.
Registration is now open!
