Month of March, all open hours
Come explore the works of Oregon artist, Cindy Reed. A variety of mediums and styles will be on display, including pastels, powder pigments, monoprints, cyanotypes, and collage. Many of the pieces combine vintage paper – from letters, maps, ledgers, books and music – with paints and inks, marrying text and image into what Reed calls “organized chaos”.
To see additional works, visit the Cindy Reed Gallery on Dailypaintworks.com.
The exhibition will be on view throughout March during regular library hours. Lake Oswego Public Library is located at 706 Fourth Street, Lake Oswego. For more information, contact April Younglove at 503-534-5667 or ayounglove@lakeoswego.city.

Healing Presence: Paintings by Claudia Dose
2026-03-24 10:00 - 17:00, 2026-03-23 10:00 - 17:00, 2026-03-22 10:00 - 17:00, 2026-03-21 10:00 - 17:00, 2026-03-20 10:00 - 17:00 | Willamette Falls Medical Center, 1500 Division St, Oregon City, OR, 97045, United States
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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

Intro To The Myth of Tea
2026-03-19 18:30 - 20:30 | Cup of Tea, 10117 SE Sunnyside Rd, Clackamas, OR, 97015, United States
Introduction to the 5 major tea types and ceremonial tea.
Join us for an introduction to the five major types of tea; green, white, oolong, black, and dark tea. Together we will explore the origins of Camellia sinensis, trace its history and cultural roots, and experience the art of gongfu ceremonial tea service. This class is an invitation to step into the magic, wonder, and devotion that tea inspires, while learning how its many expressions continue to connect us to the natural world and our human nature.
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 meditative atmosphere where, tea, and community belonging can flourish.
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 class is led by D’Guar (they/them), a trans person of color, tea guide, and community builder based in Portland, Oregon. D’Guar has devoted their path to exploring the spirit of Camellia sinensis through mindful practice, storytelling, and connection. Through their project Water Fairy Tea, they create spaces where tea becomes a bridge between nature, presence, and belonging. Their offerings weave education with devotion, inviting participants to meet tea not only as a beverage, but as a living companion in self discovery and community care with nature and the world around.
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.
