Peter’s Landmark in The Dalles on Sunday, April 12, at 3
p.m. Their concert, “Celebrate the Journey,” is part of its
Celebrate Oregon Tour, observing its 35th anniversary.
“Celebrate the Journey” consists of two major works. “I
Am Harvey Milk,” written by Broadway composer An-

openly gay man elected to public office. The second half
of the concert is “A Brighter Day: Songs of Love and
Hope,” written by PGMC member Doug Bom and Port-
land Composer Scot Crandal. It celebrates progress over
the last 35 years for LGBT equality.
General admission tickets are available at the door on
the day of the concert, $10 per person, $5 each for seniors
(60-and-over) and students (with student ID). Funds
raised for this concert will stay within local communi-
ties, benefitting Gay-Straight Alliance student groups in
Hood River and The Dalles.

Klahre House Alternative
School students, using a
grant from the Hood River
Cultural Trust, have pro-
duced a challenging art pro-
ject they will unveil on April
8.
Teams of students worked
collaboratively to make indi-
vidual linoleum cut block
prints that also work togeth-
er to print as a larger block
of four.
Continuing their artistic
explorations into local histo-
ry and agriculture, they ti-
tled the project “Present Day
WPA: Exploring Our Agri-
cultural Heritage Through
Art.”
This is the students’ third
project with artist-in-resi-
dence Kelsey Mosley.
The public is invited to the
opening of an exhibit of
their artwork at the Hood
River Library’s conference
room on Wednesday, at 10:30
a.m., where the artwork will
be on display throughout the
month of April.
Students had this to say
about the project:

it’s a way of expressing ideas
and ways of life, and every-
one can talk to each other
with art; there is no lan-
guage.”

and collaborated as well as
finding different ways we
could all contribute to
putting our different kind of
ar t to g ether on linocut
blocks.”
■ “The techniques we used
in our project was individu-
ally using our own art skills
and collaborating them all
together in one project.”

ligious manifestos, work
that promotes hate, or
novel excerpts that can-

refers to characters and a
conflict that is intro-
