Live Original Music by Siena & Ryan Kwan
when: May 15th 7-9pm
Siena Christie is a country-folk singer-songwriter based in Vancouver, Washington. Her crystal-clear voice and keenly empathic lyrics have earned comparisons to Alison Krauss, Jewel, and Shawn Colvin, as well as critical acclaim both locally and nationally. Most recently, she won Best Overall Song in Portland’s Folk Festival’s song contest for her entry “Dear Northland.”
Ryan Kwan is a multi-instrumentalist, singer-songwriter based in Portland, OR. Born and raised in Los Angeles, CA, Ryan blends lyrics thru the depth of his psyche and emotions and weaves them with a range of eclectic moods and rhythms as strumming folk-punky grooves on the uke or melodic fingerpicking guitar. His vibrato voice is often reminded of Beirut and Devendra Banhart. Known in the local community by the song “Mystery Cloud”.
Some of his music can be found here.

Talk Story is a term used throughout the Hawaiian Islands and means to talk, discuss, share, and enjoy another's company. We have a monthly Talk Story series where we pick an compelling topic, gather, and revel in each other's perspectives. This month we decided to explore the ever so intriguing topic "Death".
Join us in listening, there is never a need to participate unless you feel compelled.

LETS WELCOME IN THE SPRING!
We honor and thank the Polynesians, Hawaiians, Micronesians, and Asian-Pacific Islanders, for protecting the islands, the animals, and the South Pacific Oceans. Through their perseverance to survive past and modern day colonization, the history and wisdom of the ancient ways are maintained.
I can support by embodying change. Imbuing reverence and respect can take the form of learning Pacific Islander history, their culture, their wisdom. Humility and kindness when visiting the Islands are also ways to honor those indigenous to these regions. All too often people take vacations without reverence or respect for the places they visit. Please educate, listen, and change accordingly so that we might create a better World.
