The forest shimmers with the shades of October, the sunset of summer that moves us toward the crisp dawn of winter.

Tonight, a mile from the sea, I hear the rumbling of big waves against the sand bar. The wild world scurries and flutters in preparation of the ice storms and stillness soon to come. The air drapes us in the thick energy only Autumn can offer.

Our cozy studio space in Nehalem is holding a crystal grid of calm and nourishment for the soul this Autumn and into Winter. We invite you to take part in some of the sweet classes and events coming up this season! Read on…

SUN, OCT 26 | 11am(online only) | $33
ANCESTRAL JOURNEY FOR SAMHAIN with APRIL CLARK

Light your candles and lay back on pillows and blankets, at home/ from anywhere online. Listen and breathe as April drums a relaxing rhythm and guides you in a visualization journey practice, down into the realm of the ancestors. You are invited to create a beautiful connection with your loving ancestral guides.

April learned this offering from grandmothers in Ireland who have kept it alive. It is an ancient shamanic practice that is especially potent during the Autumn season, known as Samhain in Celtic/Irish tradition, as this is believed to be the time when the veil between the worlds is thin.
SUN, OCT 26 | 5pm | $25
SWEET AUTUMN RESTORATIVE LAST SUNDAYS with KATE SKAGGS
Steep in the transformative energies of autumn as you prepare your systems for the calm of winter. Soften into this deep relaxation practice of restorative yoga on the last Sunday evening of each month in Autumn! Yoga Teacher Kate Skaggs will guide you through this very gentle offering of meditation, subtle movement, and supportive poses on the floor or seated, held for many minutes. No prior experience needed!
SATURDAY, NOV 1 | 5pm | $50
9D BREATHWORK with MIKE BURNS
Spend a beautiful evening connected deeply inward, using your breath to move energy in a powerful way, while serenaded by a surround sound music experience. This is a transformative method to rewire your nervous system, under the careful and loving guidance of a practiced bodyworker and healer.
FRIDAY, Nov 7 | 4:30pm | $44

KING TIDES SOUND BATH with JESSE CLARK
Connect with the energy of the river mouth during the King Tide on November 7 through the musical serenade of hand pan and singing bowls, played by long time musician and lover of nature Jesse Clark.

The Lower Nehalem Community Trust is proud to announce the official protection of 19.6 acres of forested tidal wetland habitat on the north edge of Nehalem Bay!

The project fulfills a vision first imagined more than twenty years ago, when LNCT launched the Protect the Edge campaign to safeguard and connect vital habitat from Alder Creek to Nehalem Bay State Park. These edge lands nurture wildlife, buffer neighboring communities from winter storms, filter water entering the bay, and provide access to connect with nature.

On Tuesday, October 28th from 3pm – 5pm we will gather at Alder Creek Farm to celebrate. Light refreshments will be served, followed by a short program and optional walking tour to the property (roughly a half mile walk on damp natural and gravel surfaces, or van shuttle available). We recommend water resistant footwear. All are welcome!

Liberace and Liza – A Tribute coming to NCRD Nov 1st 7:00 p.m. New York City, San Francisco, and now they can add Nehalem to their resume! Several NCRD patrons have exclaimed excitedly when they heard of this show – “Best show we have ever seen!” The SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE called it: “Surreal- yet oddly perfect!”. Ok, it is a little unusual, since Liberace and Liza Minelli never actually performed together. BUT- this show imagines what it might have been like! It combines tribute, improv, virtuosic piano playing, powerhouse vocals, and comedy. Like Liberace, David Saffert is a classically trained pianist from Wisconsin. Working sans sequins he has performed with the Oregon Symphony, Oregon Ballet Theatre, Portland Opera, Oregon Shakespeare Festival, and the Schnitzer. He also appeared in two tv episodes filmed at the Liberace Mansion in Las Vegas. Jillian Snow, from NYC, is a powerful vocalist and sketch comedian who has cracked up crowds at the Laugh Factory, Gotham Comedy Club, 54 Below, Feinstein’s at the Nikko, and Portland Center Stage. Jillian was also involved in the U.S. premiere of “Liza, Liza, Liza’ and co-writing “Troll 2 The Musical” with her Emmy award-winning sister Jade.
Reserved seating $30, general admission $25. www.tickettomato.com/event/9671. PG-13.

Pete the Cat is one cool dude as he strolls around in his new white shoes. Preschoolers
and their parents and caregivers can find out more about Pete the Cat’s adventures when
attending North Oregon Coast Symphony’s FREE Musical Storytime October 20 at the
Manzanita Library at 10:30. Musical Storytime is a hands-on musical activity for preschoolers.
This free outreach program is for children ages 2-5. This month’s story is Pete the Cat, I
Love My White Shoes and will be accompanied by flute player, Shelley Loring. Pete the Cat is
silly, fun, and has brightly colored illustrations. Pete loves his bright white sneakers so much that
he sings about them wherever he goes. Children will love singing along to this story. Loring will
talk more about her flute after the story is read and demonstrate the various sounds she can
produce. Then different wind instruments will be handed out for the children to play.
Similar events are being planned monthly in partnership between North Oregon Coast
Symphony, North Tillamook Library, Seaside Library, and Astoria Library. For more
information, visit the symphony’s website at www.nocsymphony.org., or seasidelibrary.org, or
catalog.tillabook.org/Events/Calendar, or www.astoria.gov/dept/Library.
