ArtsConnect’s ArtsCalendar is a work in progress. Presently, we are working with a small group of arts organizations from across the Tri-Cities to develop the ArtsCalendar before we open up submissions from all arts organizations and we are not accepting direct submissions at this time. If your organization is interested in joining the ArtsCalendar in the future, please email your name, address, and a brief description of your organization to: [email protected]
This resource has been made possible through the financial support of ArtsConnect’s members. If you would like to support the further development, please consider becoming a member here: Membership

Crossroads Hospice Coffeehouse: Featuring Gram Partisans and Pat Chessell
Friday, Jan. 9
At 7:30pm — Gram Partisans
The Gram Partisans is a Vancouver based roots folk group whose music combines our collective respect for many diverse musical traditions with our beliefs in hope, integrity, justice and a long memory. They play mostly original songs that tell stories of courage, trust, imagination, and solidarity. “We seek to challenge your views of what music rooted in social justice can sound and feel like.” The Gram Partisans line-up: Bill Hood, Alan Zisman, Georgina Arntzen, Jack MacDermott and Michel Drouin.
At 8:50 pm — Pat Chessell
Pat is working on his next album which should be out this summer. He was nominated for a Canadian Folk Music Award for Traditional Singer of The Year just a few years ago. He’s co-written many songs with locals Ivan Boudreau and John Bowman. Come on out for some upbeat Celtic influenced Canadian folk/pop with East Coast Kitchen Party musical seasonings.
Come and enjoy the music this season with us —
Jan. 23 Mountain Sound / Electric Dandelion
Feb. 13 John Bowman / Ivan Boudreau
Fev. 27 Gary Poole / Katie Fish
