Hip Hop Orchestra fuses classical music with hip-hop, creating a groundbreaking, high-energy sound that redefines both genres. The Hip-Hop Orchestra Experience is part concert, dance party, and club night featuring original music that samples from classical and hip-hop—all presented in an underground setting like the New York scene that birthed hip-hop. Their music uniquely challenges the MCs and classical musicians, pushing the boundaries of both hip-hop and concert music, creating something completely new. The program includes seminal works of Mozart, Bach, and Beethoven, deconstructed and reimagined with funky rhythms and rapid-fire rhymes.This performance is happening in collaboration with Numerica Performing Arts Center and will be heald at their theater in Wenatchee.

This month's book: The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood. Pick up a copy in February from the library to be prepared for the meeting! Join us for curious and respectful conversations about books that have been banned or challenged across the decades. We'll discuss why the books have been banned, what we think about them, and what they have to tell us about the time in which they were banned and their relevance today. What you need to know: - Meetings will take place on the second Saturday of the month, January through May, 10-11am. - No long-term commitment required! Just sign up for the books you are interested in reading. - Register and stop by the library during the month prior for your copy of the book.

Beginner and family-friendly introduction to wildlife tracking with local tracker Kirk Beckendorf and WRI Community Programs Educator Virginia Shoup . Join generations of trackers who have learned to tell the stories of our animal neighbors by studying the signs they leave behind. Even when we don't see the critters that move through the landscape, their tracks, scat, scratch marks, and more can tell us what they're doing. Throughout the day we will learn about tracks, gait, and other wildlife signs as we journey through the local area to see what stories wildlife signs can tell us. Our day will be mostly spent outside, with a couple of lessons inside. We will walk around the Wenatchee River Institute campus as well as travel to a couple of other local spots. Depending on group size, there will be the option to ride in the WRI van or carpool to other locations. Locations will be determined closer to the event to allow for the best opportunities, but will be within a 30 minute drive. Ages: Second grade and up. Adults without kids welcome too! Children 15 and younger must be accompanied by a participating adult. Please note that we welcome children and recognize that you know your child best. We will spend much of the day outside moving at a slow pace. Children should be able to stay with the group and be comfortable outside in variable weather, as well as be respectful of instructors and learning time.

Join artist, Amber Zimmerman for this one day workshop. Touch Drawing is a simple yet profound process that offers a way to connect creativity, feelings, and personal growth. This is an expressive and creative process that can be healing and rewarding. Even people who don’t think of themselves as artists can enjoy seeing their inner thoughts take shape on paper. Paper is placed over wet paint, and images are made by pressing fingertips on the page. The hands move in response to feeling and touch. This opens a way to express emotions and ideas. A series of drawings is created, with each one helping the artist go a little deeper into themselves. We will move through guided sessions, some of which will include sound bathing to help bring depth and connection. We will be using water-based oil paints. Aprons are provided, but comfortable clothing that is ok to get paint on is recommended. Open to Age 16 and up.
