Annual Outdoor Quilt Show and Benefit for Strengthening Rural Families in Benton County - Live music, 80-110 quilts shown at Sweet Earth Vineyard in Monroe, Oregon (off hwy 99 halfway between U of O and OSU) Labor Day Weekend

I had no idea that there were events such as quilt showings! It really heightens my attention because I would love to go to an event such as this. It really reminds me that quilts really are pieces of arts. Not only in the way they are made but how they are displayed as well. It looked absolutely gorgeous looking at the pictures of the quilts hanging in the vineyard. This post and event really touches me personally because my grandmother loved to quilt and maybe I could be able to show one of her quilts one day adding my families culture and traditions to the world.

The Boreal is a venue I'm volunteering with in an effort to bring more underground music to Eugene. It's located on W. 3rd Ave, between REI and the new skatepark. If you'd like to book a show or art event, of any genre or style, feel free to get in touch with us!

Oh also, a note on booking shows -- for the best chance of a successful booking, it's best to have a show already lined up, so like 3-4 bands who are ready to play. It's also best to plan it at least a month in advance. Shows can be done on shorter notice, but there's a much better chance if there aren't many shows planned in the month you want your event to be.

For 19 years The LA Art Show has delivered the broadest spectrum of art from across the globe to Los Angeles' diverse and engaged collector base. The Los Angeles Art Show, created by FADA is the longest running venue for contemporary, modern, historic and traditional art in the country. The 2014 show hosted more than 120 prominent galleries and drew more than 56,000 visitors with its two-show concept that distinctly separated modern and contemporary works from historical and traditional works.

On The Rocks was founded in 1999 by Leo DaSilva and Peter Hollens when they attended the University of Oregon. The group established itself through five albums with an EP, a viral video of Lady Gaga's Bad Romance, and appearances on NBC's show "The Sing Off". And now they are a new group of twelve living up to their past of fame and notoriety. You may ask us, "Why don't you sing Lady Gaga?" or "Where are the guys from the 'Sing Off'?" Sadly those days are gone. Those who graduated left us a great legacy and we look up to their talent every time we sing. But talent never graduates. Talent built this group from a time before the boom of TV shows and viral videos, because having the time of our lives has always been the goal and will continue to be forever. So know this: Every time we perform, we step on stage with the vigor of every man who has ever sang in our name. On. The. Rocks.

I really enjoy these guys because of the community that they create while singing and the way they can harmonize themselves all together.

The men in OTR are so talented and show perseverance with all of their endeavors. Especially knowing one of the members and how he balances about 7 different social scenes with the U of O, I am truly amazed with what they can do. They don't just use their voices but also their personalities which to me is one of the best parts when it comes to entertaining.

I have always been a dancer so the art world surrounding dance has always been one of a fascination for me. Oregon Ballet Theatre is really big in Portland where I am from and I grew up attending all of there shows, such as Swan Lake or The Nutcracker. They are preform the rendition of Swan Lake on the 26th of this month and I would highly recommend going!

This link shows how these kids stir up life every week sneaking into classrooms and drawing pictures that show how they live life.

One of my favorite posts on here haha

the 11th Biennale of Contemporary African Art (9 May-8 June), was cancelled on 31 May. According to the news service Times24.info, the Senegalese government also ordered the suspension of all exhibitions in the biennial that refer to homosexuality.

I was looking at upcoming events provided by the Hult Center's website because my roommate recently danced at a show there. I really liked the venue, and while browsing I stumbled upon this Art Walk that will take place in the beginning of June. It looks really interesting and fun!

Fans recite his performances verbatim, share his clips globally, and have joined him in legions on Facebook and Twitter. Noah has hosted numerous television shows in South Africa, including the country's music, television and film awards, the South African Comedy Festival, and two seasons of his own late night talk show. He is also the subject of David Paul Meyer's award-winning documentary film You Laugh But It's True which tells the story of Trevor's remarkable career in post-apartheid South Africa.

Julie incorporates oil paintings into her works, clearly giving a diverse range of meticulously chosen artworks for a great show.

Wampire After forming Wampire, Rocky Tinder and Eric Phipps steadily began to make a name for themselves in the same Portland, OR, scene that has produced labelmates STRFKR as well as Unknown Mortal Orchestra. It makes sense, then, that Wampire came to Polyvinyl's attention when the duo opened for STRFKR at a hometown Portland show and that UMO's bassist Jacob Portrait produced Wampire's debut full-length, Curiosity.

Show Description: Dark of night, light of day. These are the times we come out to play. No cars, no trains, no first class flights, no neon signs or big bright lights. We creep and crawl from the highs of the tree tops to the jungle floor. Searching for new ways of dance, we just want more! Our sight is spot on and our Reflexes are precise! we have the way of movement that will always entice. We are ferocious and in many ways distinct. Now come with us on our journey, make sure you bring your...ANIMAL INSTINCT!

Burning Man is an annual event and a thriving year-round culture. The event takes place the week leading up to and including Labor Day, in Nevada's Black Rock Desert. The Burning Man organization (Black Rock City LLC) creates the infrastructure of Black Rock City, wherein attendees (or "participants") dedicate themselves to the spirit of community, art, self-expression, and self-reliance.

My chemistry teacher in high school goes to burning man every single year. One class period he dedicated the entire hour and a half class on telling us about burning man and showing us his pictures.

I would love to one day experience Burning Man! I have heard nothing but great things about other people's experiences about the music, art, and community it brings together.
