On Saturday, the festival runs from noon until 10 p.m. and features 16 regional craft breweries including the brand new Beerded Brothers of Vancouver, as well as five local wineries and cideries.

A3 ‘Live Music on the Terrace’ CD helps musicians in need More than a dozen North- west bands have contributed songs to Maryhill Winery’s 2015 “Live Music on The Ter- race Vol. 2,” a CD that show- cases artists scheduled to play at the venue this sum- mer. Featuring folk, jazz and blues bands the CD is a unique collaboration by the artists and the winery, and all proceeds benefit the non- profit Sweet Relief founda- tion, a national organization that provides financial assis- tance to musicians who are facing illness, disability or age-related problems. Last year, the winery used the CD as a promotional tool for Wine Club members, but CD sales allowed the winery to donate $1,000 to the fund. This year, about 4,000 CDs were produced. The idea behind the CD was to further promote and showcase a selection of artists performing during the year on Maryhill’s ter- raced venue. The winery owners wanted to give back to the artists in a unique way, and create more exposure for the band’s music, as well as support musicians in by do- nating a part of the proceeds to Sweet Relief. The 2015 “Live Music on the Terrace” CD is $6 and is available for purchase in the Maryhill Winery Tasting Room. Live music on the Terrace lineup happens on weekends through September, from 1-5 p.m. at Maryhill Winery. There’s no cover charge and the venue is family-friendly.

Memoir workshop at Klindt’s Oregon Book Award Winner Jay Ponteri will be at Klindt’s in The Dalles on Saturday, July 11, from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. for a memoir writing workshop. $40. Limited seat- ing. “For me the joy of memory-based writing arises from recalling a memory I could not have imagined and did not plan on recalling before that present moment of composition. I’m talking about working from inadvertent memory. This kind of memory rises to the surface of consciousness without intention or design on my part. I don’t reach for memory—I let memory reach for me.” Photo by Kirby Neumann-Rea ‘ A DORATION’ I N P ARKDALE Acoustic House Concert July 2 The multi-piece Hood River rock band The Adoration Society plays a July 4 show at Solera Brewery in Parkdale.
