News: Tea & Poetry cancelled
Hooray! We won a grant from Deschutes Cultural Coalition, supporting our 2020 “Tea & Poetry” program. Unfortunately, this little thing called Covid came down the pike. Our September 20, 2020 event was cancelled. It was to take place at Fir Street Park with Sisters Farmers Market—featuring poet, memoirist, and illustrator LEANNE GRABEL, recent winner of the Bread & Roses Award. Many thanks to our donors and sponsors, including Metolius Tea, Plazm, The Nugget Newspaper, and XPress Printing.

I have nature and art and poetry, and if that is not enough, what is enough? —Vincent Van Gogh
