Community Calendar

Is your child going to be age 5 by September 1st? Then it is time to enroll for Kindergarten. Ashland School District enrollment is now open for the 2026-2027 school year.

Kagyu Sukha Chöling’s 2026 Spring Auction is now live, featuring a diverse, community-curated collection of Dharma art, antiques, handmade goods, local services, rare collector’s items, and unique offerings from across the Rogue Valley and beyond.

This year’s auction includes traditional Himalayan and Buddhist artwork, vintage and historical pieces, artisan crafts, wellness offerings, and meaningful objects gathered through the generosity of community members and supporters of the dharma.

Whether you are a collector, art lover, practitioner, or simply curious to browse an unusual and beautifully assembled collection, the auction offers something for every level of interest and participation.

Proceeds support the ongoing activities and programs of Kagyu Sukha Chöling, a Tibetan Buddhist meditation center in Ashland dedicated to the study and practice of the Kagyu lineage.

Experienced students are the focus of this ongoing class but beginners may join after contacting the instructor. Tai Chi and Qi Gong are calming practices that incorporate slow movement, breathwork, visualization, and meditation. Consistent practice fosters improved balance, body alignment, coordination, and overall sense of well-being. Tai Chi students will also practice the Qi Gong.

To determine if you are ready for this level placement, please contact instructor Carolyn Wolf prior to attending at carwolf@sonic.net.

Instructors Bio: I have been a certified Tai Chi Practice Leader (from the Institute of Integral Qi Gong and Tai Chi) since 2015 and have been leading classes locally since then. I enjoy sharing all the practice has to offer; relaxation, increased body awareness, improved balance, meditation techniques, and overall improved well-being.”

New Exhibition - StitchPunk presented by SAQA

Studio Art Quilt Associates, Inc. (SAQA) is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to promote the art quilt: "a creative visual work that is layered and stitched or that references this form of stitched layered structure."

Our vision is that the art quilt is universally respected as a fine art medium. SAQA’s core values are: excellence, innovation, integrity, and inclusion.

Over the past 3+ decades, SAQA has grown into a dynamic and active community of over 4,000 artists, curators, collectors, and art professionals located around the world.

No labels. No backstory. No pretending you “normally drink Burgundy.”

We pour everything blind and let your palate make the decisions for once. Guess the varietal, guess the region, or confidently embarrass yourself in front of strangers. Honestly, that’s part of the fun.

A night of curiosity, chaos, and realizing the cheap one may have actually been your favorite.

We are a Zen practice community in the Diamond Sangha lineage founded by Robert Aitken Rōshi. We provide zazen(meditation) instruction, weekly zazen, practice talks, Dharma discussions and more.
