This Week's Calendar | Galleries | Valentine's Calendar

festival: Who doesn't like puppets? Finger puppets, shadow puppets, big puppets, small puppets. Just the word "puppets" is kind of cool. Say it over and over and it starts to sound like another language. Take your kids to get their fill of these manipulated beasts at the Springfield Puppet Festival. Portland's internationally renowned Tears of Joy presents The Toad Prince, an Asian version of Beauty and the Beast, at the Willamalane Senior Center. See Saturday Calendar.

dance: Romance your Valentine with the sultry sounds of blues and jazz at the Hult's Silva Hall. Miguel Harth-Bedoya's "Big Band" flirts with chords played by guitar-master Don Latarski and Rue de Blues. Vocalist Marilyn Keller chimes in with heart-breakers such as "Unforgettable" and "Embraceable You." Take your sweetie to this concert and you're sure to get some. See Thursday, Feb. 14 Calendar.

celebration: The Oregon Asian Celebration, "The Winds of Asia" returns to the Lane County Fairgrounds for its 17th annual festival. Feast on dumplings-a-plenty and oodles of noodles, or catch one of many martial arts and dance demonstrations. Try a class in bonsai, basketry and paper making. Musical events include the Eugene Taiko Drummers and Gamelan Sari Pandhawa. Also find a plethora of children's activities. If you miss the fashion show of Asian clothing, you'll be sari. See Saturday Calendar.
