CALENDAR
For the first time in three years, four regional peace choirs
will come together in Eugene for a reunion concert called
Let Peace Begin with Me. The peace choir movement in
our region, according to Eugene Peace Choir coordinator
Julia Linebarger-Taylor, started in 1984 with two sisters.
“They protested the shipment of toxic stuff by train
through Eugene. They got on the tracks and sang in
protest.” The peace choir movement sprang from there,
and as members left the region they started their own
choirs in other parts of the valley. “These four choirs get
together annually for what we call our multi-choir concert,”
Linebarger-Taylor says. “There’s probably going to be
about 130 singers.” She adds that the annual concert,
which rotates cities each year, has packed halls in other
venues. All the songs have messages of peace, social
justice or environmental sustainability, she says. “I like
that our group has a purpose beyond just enjoying each
other’s singing.” She says that all the choirs welcome new
members, so feel free to reach out after the concert if you
like what you see.
Let Peace Begin with Me runs 3-5 pm Sunday, Feb. 19, at
the Central Presbyterian Church, 555 E. 15th Ave.; $5-$15
