Lane Community College’s Women in Transition program has helped thousands of women in challenging situations attain education throughout the past 25 years, and an upcom- ing fundraiser will assist in adding to that count. “Side by Side, by Side” (a nod to a Stephen Sondheim composition) includes performances from three of Eugene’s fi nest choral groups: Eugene Peace Choir, Soromundi Lesbian Chorus of Eu- gene and In Accord. The concert features an enormous range of selections, from pop to classical to gospel, and proceeds will help women achieve their goals as they start new paths in life. Go for the cause, stay for the awesome choral music. “Side by Side, by Side” is 3pm Sunday, March 16, at Ragozzino Performance Hall, LCC Main Campus. $10. — Amy Schneider SATURDAY MARCH 15 S U N R I S E 7: 2 5 A M ; S U N S E T 7: 19 P M A V G .
