Sakura Raku Workshop
Community
In cooperation with the Kentuck Art Center, this year's Sakura Festival offers a new way to participate in Japanese culture: creating raku pottery. The distinctive crackled finish of raku results from taking the red-hot pottery from the kiln and plunging it immediately into a medium that ignites, bringing serendipitous beauty to the finished piece. Participants will decorate hand-thrown pottery pieces prepared by Kentuck artists and work with the artists in firing and finishing the pieces. The usual participant fee will be sponsored by the Sakura Festival and includes one piece of pottery; additional pieces for decoration can be purchased at the workshop. The workshop is limited to 15 participants who must be at least 15 years of age; please call 205-758-1257 to reserve your place in class. Observers of all ages are welcome to attend at no charge. The Kentuck Art Center is located at 503 Main Avenue in downtown Northport, Alabama.

Blue Jeans for the Blues: A Casual Monday with a Cause!
Community
That $5 you found in your pocket can buy you the chance to shed your business suit and wear blues jeans to the office while supporting a great cause! The Alabama Blues Project is asking businesses to participate in their second annual "Blue Jeans for the Blues" on Monday, March 29th. The event will raise funds to help the ABP continue their mission of promoting Alabama's rich blues heritage and passing it on to future generations through its award-winning blues camps and school programs, designed particularly to benefit at-risk children and underserved areas.
How does it work? Businesses agree to appoint a coordinator within their company to collect $5 from each participating employee in exchange for the opportunity to wear blues jeans to work on March 29th. This is a fashion statement with a cause! Inviting staff to wear their favorite pair of blue jeans to work for a "casual Monday" is a fun and comfortable way to generate good feelings for both staff and customers. The Alabama Blues Project will provid…
