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.

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!

In this lecture by Kathryn Sinor, delve into the lives and perspectives that often get washed away to history, all through the eyes of an Oswego heartbreaker.

The Glass Menagerie

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.

Alchemy: The Myth of Puerh
2026-03-27 18:30 - 20:30 | Cup of Tea, 10117 SE Sunnyside Rd, Clackamas, OR, 97015, United States
A Puerh Tea Tasting
Come immerse yourself in the living tradition of pu-erh, a tea shaped by time itself. With mindfulness as our guide, we will walk alongside pu-erh through its alchemy of transformation, tasting the wisdom it carries through the earth, its history, and the art of brewing.
This gathering is offered with a suggested contribution of $35. In the spirit of inclusivity and balance, you are welcome to offer what feels right for you, whether that is $35, $25, or more if you have the means. Contributions above the suggested amount help make this experience accessible to those with financial need and sustain the ongoing care and energy poured into holding spaces like this. Every offering, whether financial or energetic, affirms the value of community supported education.
We also acknowledge the systemic barriers that have long limited access for BIPOC communities. To honor this, a $15 option is available for BIPOC participants who would benefit from it. This is one way we commit to equity, ensuring that diversity is not only welcomed but integral to the richness of the experience.
If the listed prices are still a barrier, please reach out directly. I am more than willing to work with you to ensure that tea remains within reach for all who feel called to share in it.
All are welcome here. You are invited to arrive exactly as you are and take part in a space rooted in openness, care, and community, a living space where each presence is honored and where we grow together through the deep, transformative beauty of tea.
To help us hold a mindful and welcoming space, we ask participants to be considerate of sensory sensitivities by avoiding strong fragrances. This is a space of gentle awareness, where we honor our own needs as well as those of others. By showing up with openness, care, and respect for each other’s boundaries, we create a collective atmosphere where meditation, tea, and queer belonging can flourish together.
In the spirit of reciprocity and uplifting community together, five dollars from each participant will be donated to Q Center, a nonprofit that supports LGBTQ2SIA+ communities through advocacy, resources, and safe spaces, embodying tea’s spirit of connection, reflection, healing, and belonging.
This gathering is guided by D’Guar (they/them), a trans person of color, tea guide, and community weaver rooted in Portland, Oregon. Their journey has been dedicated to exploring the depth and spirit of Camellia sinensis through mindful practice, story, and shared ritual. Through Water Fairy Tea, they cultivate spaces where tea becomes a bridge into presence, nature, and belonging. Their offerings blend learning with reverence, inviting participants to meet tea not just as a drink, but as a living companion in personal discovery, collective care, and connection with the natural world.
We acknowledge that this work takes place on the traditional lands of the Multnomah, Clackamas, Chinook, Kathlamet, Tualatin, Kalapuya, Molalla, and many other Indigenous ancestors and communities. We honor their enduring presence, care, and wisdom, and offer gratitude to the land and to the people who have tended it since time immemorial.
