My Own Two Hands will celebrate arts
The annual celebration of
the arts and major fundraiser
for Sisters Folk Festival (SFF)
kicks off on Friday, May 10
with a parade, art stroll and
Community Arts Celebration.
On Saturday, May 11 is the
Art Auction and Party at
Ponderosa Forge.
This year9s theme is <We
All Belong,= and more than
85 artists have donated work
for the auction.
My Own Two Hands is
the primary fundraiser for
the music and arts programs
of SFF in the Sisters schools
and community. Proceeds
from MOTH enable SFF to
directly support all forms of
music and arts programming
in the Sisters School District,
grades K 3 12, along with the
innovative and award-winning
<Americana Project.=
All artwork presented in
the MOTH auction is donated
by generous artists who under-
stand the value of arts in the
lives of every child, and are
willing to back that up by
donating their own time and
works of art.
On Friday, May 10 the
MOTH parade will kick off
the celebration. Students
parade their <We All Belong=
themed artwork on Hood
Avenue, starting at 4 p.m. at
Spruce Street and ending at
Oak Street.
The community art stroll
will run from 4 to 7 p.m. and
each of the 12 art stroll loca-
tions will feature live music,

The Community Arts
Celebration at The Belfry
concludes the Friday evening

traditional Son Jarocho, Afro-
Mexican music and zapateado
dancing.
Opening the event at 7 p.m.
is a special presentation of the
newly formed Sisters Kids
Choir, followed by local per-
cussionist Dale Largent who

Saturday, May 11 brings
the Art Auction and Party,
hosted by SFF at Ponderosa
Forge. This event is consid-
ered by many as the <Party of
the Year.=
This year 9s entertain-
ment will be provided by The
Eugene-based band The Sugar
Beets. The transformation
of Ponderosa Forge from a
working metal shop on Friday
to an event center is a feat in
and of itself, and the venue
provides a perfect backdrop
for the artwork to shine.
