    Vintage tin celebrates anniversary at The Cruz
    Vintage tin celebrates anniversary at The Cruz
    August 8, 2007 11:00 am

    It’s time again to take a trip back to a time when grabbing one’s friends, getting in the car and taking a cruise down the city’s main drag was the thing to do on Friday nights.
    Those days seem long since passed, at least en masse, as technology, gas prices and other factors funnel today’s youth in front of video game consoles or movie screens for fun. But once every summer in Port Orchard, the car-crazy generations of yesteryears, and those of today, still pay homage to The Cruz.

    Beyond the Kitsap Mountaineer Players’ annual excursions into the woods each summer, outdoor theater in Kitsap — let alone free snippets of Shakespeare on the waterfront — is a touch hard to find.
    Luckily this month, the latter will be relatively easy to seek out, so long as one knows how to get to Bremerton’s Evergreen Park (at the end of Pacific Ave. off of 11th Street).

    Lost in the cadence of the 27-year-old, still potent rock and roll masterpiece “Back in Black,” one might wonder whether there is any musical entity that could ever top the thumping back beat and ear-drum shaking guitar riffs of the great AC/DC.

    With its tucked back location, absence of major development and obvious care for the environment on which it was built, the quaint nook of the Kitsap Peninsula called Indianola is a sanctuary in itself.
    Further inside, the community is peppered with private havens in the form of impeccably kept gardens.

    July 11, 2007 12:00 pm

    When thinking of non-fiction, most people likely conjure a somewhat dull read in the form of biography, historical account, textbook or otherwise.
    Bainbridge Island-based author Jim Whiting has written at least one book in each of those veins in the past five years, yet he still isn’t bored with the genre. That’s because for him non-fiction, fact finding and learning overall are essential.

    When looking for a change of pace in one’s typical weekend entertainment buffet of movies, TV, concerts and special dinners, there’s a family-friendly dish of destruction being served up at the Kitsap Fairgrounds.

    Despite what the hit theme song may allude to, prancing along gayly — “Oooo … klaaaa … homa, where the wind comes sweepin’ down the plain / and the wavin’ wheat can sure smell sweet,” and so on — the musical “Oklahoma!” is seminal in American musical theater for its serious and gritty nature.

    The line between illusion and illustration will be blurred at Gallery Fraga this summer as it aims to deceive and play games with the eye in a cleverly sophisticated setting — a group fine art exhibit of trompe l’oeil.
    Trompe l’oeil, (pronounced trawmp-loi) is a French term, meaning literally “trick the eye.”
    It’s an art form — a cross between illusionism and realism — which creates the illusion of reality.

    Cities around the county have hidden gems of outdoor concert venues that have either not been fully realized. However, annually during the hottest days of summer Port Orchard, Silverdale, Poulsbo and Bainbridge each open their waterfront shoreline to the music for free summer concert series.

    Though in real life Port Orchard artist Michele Sleight is a detailed-oriented, middle-aged mother of four, in the world which she creates with pen and ink, she is a more spontaneous, still extensively detail-oriented illustrator of imagination
    And while they are meticulously defined, the concepts of her work are often as whimsical as a child’s dreams.
