Ten Grands has thrilled audiences in sold out concert halls since 2001 and now is presented in an outdoor venue.
Harrison’s “Crossing Over ~ A Musical Haggadah” was performed earlier this year at Congregation Beth Israel, where he is an active member.

Bring your blankets and stretch out as the sun sets and experience an evening like no other- great music, great community, the beauty of an amazing Oregon summer night on The Reserve Vineyards and Golf Club.
Furthering a student’s education is a critical component of the development of individuals and strong communities. When students receive a complete education – one that balances the sciences and arts – the rewards and effectiveness can multiply and ripple through a community. Coupling music education with other subjects has proven to produce higher academic results than without a music-learning component. Furthermore, students that are exposed to other cultures and customs can have a greater perspective and compassion when dealing with our complex and diversified society. The Snowman and Rotary Club of Tigard Foundations are partnering together to help support education in its many forms.

Vedem: The Underground Magazine of the Terezin Ghetto
Vedem Underground examines the literary magazine written by Jewish teens imprisoned at Terezin, a Nazi camp in Czechoslovakia during the Second World War. Using pop-art graphics, drawings and paintings, and the prose and poetry, these brave adolescents secretly wrote and illustrated the longest-running underground magazine in a Nazi camp. Vedem (Czech for “In the Lead”) documented their voices with defiance, humor and heartbreak. The exhibition breaks down their 800 original pages and reconstructs them in the form of a contemporary magazine. Curated by Rina Taraseiskey and Danny King.
