"Light a Light" for the City of Edmonds Youth Scholarship Fund
In the spirit of giving, light a light this holiday season for someone you love, something you wish for or in remembrance of a loved one.

Each light you light is a donation to the scholarship fund that enables local children to participate in our recreation programs who wouldn't otherwise have the opportunity to do so.

This year a living fir tree will be strung with lights and placed outside the entrance to the center.

Donate $5 per name and we'll note your donation on a main floor bulletin board inside the center. The tree will remain lit until January 4th.

Dialogue # 4: Ribbons of Individuality-Voices of Clarity/Voices of Obscurity
Zai Circle invites you to this Musical Conversation for Peace exploring the cultural, generational, physical and metaphorical divide in multi-dimensional improvisations.

Featuring: KeLan: Electric Basses, 12 string guitar. Abel Rocha, Acoustic guitar and Harp. Alicia Jones: Voice, Jean Mann, Voice.

Peace. Culture. Religion. Tradition. As individuals we all have diverse views, opinions, and insights to each of these topics.

These differences can be subtle or vast. They can be the thing that binds two people together or that separates nations by war and conflict.

Is one voice louder-more correct-more important-than another? How does one person’s views effect and shape the others view.

If we do not talk about our differences can we really understand our similarities? Does our own voice obscure what could be a profound understanding of what is around us-of what we are, as individuals?

Dialogue 4 explores the question of clarity and obscurity with two drastically different “spoken and sung” voices, in contrast and in dialogue with a duo of rhythmic complexity including basses, and cultural stringed instruments, all driven by the response to the words and thoughts from the audience.

Free Parking at Good Sheppard Center. All Ages welcome!
Cost: under 18 free; $17 at the door; $15 online.

Please see websites for more information and tickets.
