Join us for a fun evening of contra dances (social dance originally from New England) including a few circle and square dances. For Jan, we’ll start the new year with a good dose of Irish tunes presented by several of Seattle’s finest musicians from this genre – Dale Russ (fiddle), Anita Anderson (piano), and a guest concertina player. Dances called by Laura Me’ Smith. Walk-through provided for every dance. Attending with a partner is not necessary. Beginner instruction at 7:30 PM with dance beginning at 8:00 PM. Free ice cream provided during the break! Admission $8 at the door; $4 for students. If it’s your first time to try, let us know and you’re in for free. _____________________________ 
Andy McKee Andy McKee’s acoustic guitar can approximate the polyrhythmic interplay of a percussion ensemble, the harmonic sweep of a string section, the dazzling runs of a bluegrass doghouse bass-and-banjo duo, and virtually anything else his pastoral compositions and tasteful covers require. _____________________________
Michael Rosen’s award-winning book We’re Going On A Bear Hunt is brought vividly and noisily to the stage! Join our intrepid adventurers on their quest to find a bear; as they wade through the gigantic swishy swash grass, the splashy plashy river and the thick oozy, squlchy mud! Expect catch songs, interactive scenes and plenty of hands-on adventure – plus a few surprises! _____________________________
Planets orbiting red dwarf stars are likely to be the first that we study in the search for life beyond our solar system. At the January Eastside Science Café, join UW's Aomawa Shields to explore why these stars offer the best chance of finding habitable planets, and how a planet's ability to support life is complicated by the unique properties of these stars. Wilde Rover is located in downtown Kirkland at 111 Central Way. _____________________________
Recommended for all ages. _____________________________
A delightful evening of fun on the radio for the whole family! Five times each season Jim French’s radio dramas are recorded life on the KPC stage. Whether it is a Sherlock Holmes adaptation or an episode of Harry Nile, you can always expect a double-bill with Imagination Theater—suspense, adventure, and of course, mystery! All Seats: $10 _____________________________ Early Music Guild’s performance of The Byrd Ensemble: Magnificat This program includes music from two recent CD releases – Arvo Pärt and Peter Hallock: Draw on sweet night accompanied with other similar pieces in sound and illustrative text. The program is inspired by the deeply spiritual and mystical quality of Hallock and Pärt’s music. Unlike traditional composers, Hallock and Pärt (and all the other listed composers) abandon traditional musical forms for a unique sound world and structure that delivers a more story-based experience – as if the listener has been on a journey. Hallock once called his music, “musical iconography.” Join us for this musically captivating and transcendent experience. _____________________________ Creme Tangerine Creme Tangerine is a dynamic five-piece band from Seattle that performs the music of The Beatles for thousands each year. Rather than focusing on the personalities or look of the Beatles, Creme Tangerine focuses on performing their beloved music live for all to enjoy. Their performances have included The Beatles most recognized hits as well as different eras of the Beatles' music such as "The White Album" and "Abbey Road" in their entireties. Their high energy, quality performances appeal to those already familiar with and new to the music of The Beatles. 100 percent of the proceeds from this event go to support Kirkland Performance Center. _____________________________ OPPORTUNITIES _____________________________ Kirkland Cultural Arts Commission and Mayor's CACHET Award We are pleased to announce that 2014 Kirkland Cultural Arts Commission and Mayor's CACHET Award nomination forms are available to honor and recognize a business, organization or individual for outstanding contributions to the arts, culture, and/or heritage in Kirkland.
