SUMMARY:Walking the Way During Lent
DESCRIPTION:Trinity Ashland will offer the opportunity to reflect on Jesus’ final day in Jerusalem. \nThe spiritual practice known as Way of the Cross\, Stations of the Cross and the Via Dolorosa has it roots in the intentions of pilgrims to the Holy Land over many hundreds of years. The Episcopal Book of Occasional Services lays out two versions of the Way of the Cross. This year we will use the Scriptural Way of the Cross. Come\, be a pilgrim the first six of the seven Fridays in Lent. Join us at noon on Fridays beginning March 7 and concluding on April 11 in the Sanctuary. \nSee more at https://www.trinitychurchashland.org/ or https://www.facebook.com/TrinityAshland/.

SUMMARY:ART ON FIRST: An Artful Life\, Solo Exhibition John Palombo
DESCRIPTION:Currently featured at ART on FIRST are nature inspired paintings by John Palombo. With just enough challenges growing up to gain some deep colors and spectrums in his life\, John has made use of the follies and torture of being human and turned them into joy and happiness by finding something that truly speaks to his soul – visiting remote natural areas and painting. \nJohn loves color and creating color. His focus has always been on landscapes of Southern Oregon\, particularly Southeastern Oregon. When creating a composition\, John’s interest is to translate the magic that he sees in the world and in nature onto his surface. With this\, he hopes to inspire his viewers to find the same magic\, or something that is personal to just them. \nFor more information\, please visit www.artonfirstashland.com. \nMonday\, March 31 – Monday\, April 28\, 12:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m. \nOpening Reception: Friday\, April 4\, 5:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m.

SUMMARY:“Mortal Zin: A Mystery Novel” with author Diane Schaffer
DESCRIPTION:A crusading attorney’s death. Sabotage at a family winery. Secrets buried in California’s past… \nWhen corporate attorney Noli Cooper visits her godparents’ Santa Cruz Mountain winery\, she’s hoping for a few quiet days to consider her future. But the future will have to wait. The body of her childhood mentor\, a crusading social justice lawyer and local hero\, is discovered in a rocky ocean cove. The sheriff is quick to call it suicide. Noli knows he’s wrong. Teaming up with PI Luz Alvarado\, Noli dives into a world where nothing is as it seems. \nAs threats mount and the winery teeters on the brink of ruin\, Noli and Luz must navigate a treacherous landscape of greed\, revenge\, and long-buried secrets. Their investigation weaves through the rich tapestry of California’s vineyard history\, the mystery of zinfandel grapes\, and the haunting legacy of the Vietnam War. With a murderer on the loose\, predatory neighbors circling\, and Noli’s godfather framed for murder\, the clock is ticking. Can two fearless women from different worlds unravel the truth before it’s too late? \nDiane Schaffer\, a Stanford PhD\, is a retired professor and longtime resident of Santa Cruz County. Mortal Zin\, her first mystery novel\, is rooted in her summer work in a Santa Cruz zinfandel winery\, where she became fascinated with the unique history of zinfandel\, California’s mystery grape. When she’s not writing\, she’s hiking\, river kayaking\, or reading a good mystery novel. She now lives in Ashland\, Oregon\, with her husband. \nMonday April 7th 7:00 to 8:00 pm
