SUMMARY:The Butterfly Effect: From Classrooms to Coastal Meadows - Allison Dennis\, Presenter
DESCRIPTION:Allison Dennis Execuitive Director\nSitka Center for Art and Ecology \nWhat can happen when a child gets time at school to make art\, a scientist gets time to pursue a new idea\, or a patch of invasive grass becomes a native meadow? \nJoin Sitka Center for Art and Ecology Executive Director Alison Dennis and Facilities and Ecology Director Jake Simondet for a look at how small beginnings can lead to lasting change. Alison will introduce Sitka’s work in arts and ecology education\, residencies and public programs\, along with the priorities guiding its next five years. Jake will take us into Sitka’s 80-acre nature preserve at Cascade Head\, where the team is restoring coastal meadow habitat for native plants\, pollinators and the endangered Oregon silverspot butterfly. They’ll also share ways OCLI members can take part\, from joining a workshop or artist talk to volunteering and supporting Sitka’s work. \nSpeaker bios \nAlison Dennis has served as Executive Director of Sitka Center for Art and Ecology since 2018. She leads the organization’s work to expand access to art and nature through all-ages arts and ecology education\, residencies for professional artists and scientists\, and stewardship of its Cascade Head preserve. Under her leadership\, Sitka has grown K-8 Create to reach more than 5\,000 students across three coastal counties and adopted a new strategic plan focused on youth arts access\, support for artists and habitat restoration. \nJake Simondet is Sitka Center for Art and Ecology’s Facilities and Ecology Director. He leads stewardship of Sitka’s campus and 80-acre nature preserve at Cascade Head\, including a long-term effort to restore coastal meadow habitat. His work brings together invasive species removal\, native plant establishment and careful observation of a changing landscape. \n \n  \n

SUMMARY:“More than you ever need to know about Accordions” - Geoff Levear\, Presenter
DESCRIPTION:Geoff Levear\nThe Accordion: History\, Mechanics\, and Versatility \nIntroduction\nThis presentation will explore the history of the accordion\, as well as explain how the instrument produces its distinctive sound. \nHow Accordions Work\nWe will take a look inside the accordion to understand the internal mechanisms responsible for generating sound. The way the instrument is constructed plays a significant role in its unique tonal qualities. \nRegional Differences in Sound\nAccordions from different regions—such as Italy\, France\, Germany\, and China—each have their own characteristic sound. We will discover how these differences arise depending on where the instrument is made. \nThe Mystery of the Buttons\nAnother aspect we will address is the abundance of buttons on the accordion. We will learn why there are so many and what functions they serve. \nBeyond Oktoberfest: Accordion Versatility\nFinally\, we will see that the accordion is not limited to Oktoberfest or traditional folk music. In fact\, this instrument can fit into any genre\, highlighting its remarkable adaptability. \n
