Be sure to see this groundbreaking project that brought all nine federally-recognized Oregon tribes together to share information about their art, culture, traditions, and history.

The exhibit includes three large displays, one at Columbia Center for the Arts, one at the Hood River Library, and one at the Hood River Adult Center.

Eagle Spirit, an inter-tribal dance troupe that consists of both adults and children, will give a FREE dance performance on February 28th at 4pm in the Columbia Center for the Arts theater.

Over two dozen local artists are creating new works expressly for this show. You're bound to find something you love. And remember ... February, is the month for lovers.

Not sure what the love of your life would really want? No problem. Gift cards are available in any amount.

Join the artist opening on Friday, January 8 from 6 to 8pm. Wine and beer available.

In What the Butler Saw, British playwright Joe Orton combines elements of traditional farce, comedy of manners, revenge drama and Greek tragedy and wraps them up in a fireworks display of language aimed at alternately delighting and surprising his audience.
