One of the great summer pleasures in Oregon is the annual return of the Oregon Bach Festival, a three-week extravaganza of brutally good live classical music performed in Eugene and, recently, in Portland as well.
The festival makes its grand splash opening on Friday in Eugene&#8217;s Hult Center, where the OBF forces will gather under the [...]]]></description>

One of the coolest things about Oregon in the summer is the Oregon Shakespeare Festival in Ashland.
OSF is one of the top regional theaters in the United States; it puts on 11 plays in a season that kicks off in February and runs through October; and, best of all, it doesn&#8217;t do only Shakespeare.
We&#8217;re just [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Portland Art Museum has just announced the five recipients of its first Contemporary Northwest Art Awards.
The CNAAs, begun this year, are the museum&#8217;s replacement for its Oregon Biennial, which collapsed and died under the weight of dull conceptual academicism. It also didn&#8217;t represent much of anything about Oregon art. An artist virtually couldn&#8217;t get [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Oregon&#8217;s had some good films shot here. &#8220;One Flew Over the Cuckoo&#8217;s Nest,&#8221; for example, used the old Oregon State Hospital to play an old state hospital.
Then there&#8217;s those other films&#8230;

		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;Over the course of Amanda Snyder&#8217;s long career during the early- and mid-20th century, the noted Oregon painter channeled a variety of stylistic currents.

Rasmus Petersen, a Dane who came to Oregon in 1900 and died here in 1952, loved rocks.
