Wednesday, October 31, 2018 The Nugget Newspaper, Sisters, Oregon 13 Film showing to spark conversation In an often-strident climate where people — even friends and neigh- bors — seem to talk at or past each other on difficult social, political and cultural issues, Steve Stratos is hop- ing to spark a community conversation.

The church plans to host other film screenings and talks with local authors and other creatives, “just to have conversations that are not hostile, that are not filled with all kinds of judgments and presumptions.” Entertainment & Events OCT 31 WED Cork Cellars Tasty Thursday Hosted Wine Tasting 5 to 7 p.m. For additional information call 541-549-2675 or go online to corkcellarswinebistro.com. 1 THUR Sisters Saloon Karaoke Night 9 p.m. to midnight.
