For the first time in their 86-year history, the
Eugene-Springfield Youth Orchestras are putting
on a virtual concert series. Tune into Facebook Live to
watch the finale 7 pm Thursday, May 21, with 21 videos
of young musicians playing together — while apart. The
virtual concert series is dedicated to the tireless work
and heroism of essential workers during this time of
hardship and uncertainty. The finale will feature the
Youth Symphony, whose musicians have worked harder
to share their music with a larger audience than ever
before. Music aside, audience members will get to hear
from conductors and honor six graduating seniors. No
tickets are required for this event, but ESYO is accepting
donations to help the local youth play on. ESYO awards
more than $30,000 in scholarships each year to more
than 100 young musicians. The five orchestras provide
free concerts to elementary students, seniors and
community members every year. While different from
previous ESYO concerts, this spring’s virtual finale will
bring the music and joy of talented young musicians
right to our homes, something we could all use a bit
more of right now.
Eugene-Springfield Youth Orchestra’s virtual
Facebook Live concert is 7 pm Thursday, May 21, at

ATTENTION
Bloodworks Northwest is
seeking blood donors. With
new COVID-19 cases in the
Northwest projected to
decline in the weeks ahead,
Washington and Oregon
hospitals are preparing to
restart surgeries, organ
transplants and cancer
treatments that were sus-
pended in March after the
magnitude of the pandemic
threat became apparent.
Patient needs and requests
for blood from Bloodworks
Northwest healthcare part-
ners are rising quickly, and
they could reach pre-COVID
levels as early as next week
before the blood supply is
ready. If you are interested
in donating blood, you can
schedule online at Blood-
WorksNW.org or call the
Eugene Donor Center at
541-484-9111.
The ongoing COVID-19
pandemic has caused the
cancellation of the Mount
Pisgah Arboretum’s annual
Wildflower and Music Fes-
tival, one of the nonprofit’s
biggest fundraising events.
Mount Pisgah Arboretum
needs support from the
community more than ever.
If you are interested in
becoming a member, visit
MPA at MountPisgahArbo-
retum.org.
Are you a solo musician
or in a band in need of
some public attention and
love during this COVID-19
pandemic? Simply go to the
Eugene Weekly website and
go to the calendar listings,
or email dan@eugeneweekly.
com to get your music the
eyes it deserves. All of us
could use your talents.
