Portland guitarist Eric Skye
will be making his first appear-

concert series Thursday, Oct. 1,

jazz guitarist, he actually plays
in an eclectic and original style,
exploring areas between jazz,
Americana and blues, all
threaded together with a
healthy respect for the groove
and a love of unadulterated
acoustic tone.
Skye’s most recent release,
“A Different Kind Of Blue,” is

Nativity scenes are popular
at Christmas and many peo-
ple collect them from all over
the world. They can be made

Family.
A preview of the upcoming

Oct. 1-30. A sampling of
Nativity scenes will be dis-

annual Nativity Festival,
which will be held Dec. 4, 5
and 6, from 1 to 6 p.m., at the
Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-Day Saints, 2705
Munsel Lake Road.
The event is free of charge
and many individuals and
groups will provide music
during the three days of the
festival.
Anyone in the area want-
ing to display a Nativity
scene at the festival is invited
to participate. All Nativity
sets, large or small, are wel-
come. Security is provided
for the Nativity scenes once
