Live Music & Dancing!
Blueberry Blossoms
Rachel Buklad and the Creekside Strings
Rachel and the advanced students of Creekside Strings, a nonprofit providing young fiddlers a variety of activities to develop their skills and their relationships, will perform contra dance music. The audience is invited to join the fun and get up and dance. Contra dance is done in two long lines of couples. The movements are similar to square dance steps. No experience necessary. There will be a caller to teach the moves and tell you when each is to be done.
Victoria Lawton
Victoria is a local singer/songwriter who you might have had a chance to hear at Martino’s or the Vintage Cafe. She writes beautiful songs as well as performing covers of other musicians.
Ben Rice and the PDX Hustle
Ben Rice might be described as quiet and unassuming – until he picks up a guitar. That stealthy quality has earned him the moniker “blues ninja,” evidenced in his vocal chops and songcraft as well as his guitar playing. While Ben started in traditional blues, over the years he’s built upon that foundation with soul, R&B, folk and country to fashion a welcoming front porch where everybody wants to hang out into the wee hours. Ben’s music brings audiences to their feet.
Food & Fun!
Tacos Libertad
Tacos Libertad believes that connection is everything – to Source, Self and Each Other. Food is our passion and our way to bring people together in community. Our food was born of love, and we strive to always bring that love to those we serve. Understanding our connection to, and interconnection with Mother Earth, all our food is organic, sourced locally if at all possible, and even grown in our own garden. Everything is homemade, including our tortillas. Knowing how essential community is for all of us to thrive, we always lean into and build our connections, honoring every person for the unique gift they are. Libertad means Freedom, and we stand in the knowing that freedom is unconditional. Spiritual, mental, emotional, physical, and financial freedom.
