Amy Daves and the Outskirts

“You are in for a treat! Amy Daves is a violinist /fiddler and vocalist who was raised on classical music under the influence of her parents, who met in the symphony in college. Twenty years ago, Amy defected from classical to country music and has since reveled in exploring many other genres. The Outskirts are an all-female trio featuring Amy Daves, Tammy Frost and Kristen Ferguson. Their beautifully blended 3-part harmony delivers a unique variety of originals and covers from Beatles to Eagles and everything in between! “ Text and image from their website.

Highline Heritage Museum, Burien
Friday, Feb. 28, 7 p.m.

Each 7 STORIES night has a theme and storytellers sign up and are selected in advance. Real stories are spellbinding and raw. They are not a theatrical performance, but true life stories from your friends, acquaintances, or someone you have never met.  These stories are told from the heart. Each program is introduced by our host for the evening, with a short bio of each storyteller.”  Image and description from their website.

Admission is Free.

“Tapestry Artists of Puget Sound: Telling Their Stories”

Tapestry Artists of Puget Sound (TAPS) was founded in 1990 for the exchange of techniques, philosophy and inspiration within the world of tapestry. The group provides a forum for the exchange of ideas and an opportunity for critical review through discussion, exhibition and publication. Each artist has developed and refined a body of work that expresses a unique vision and commitment to the art form.

This diverse group of artists share their artwork and the ideas that inspire them. Each artist has a unique approach whether it is a technique, material or concept and brings these together in the medium of handwoven tapestry. – Image and description taken from their website.
