Radix Retreat 2026! 🌊
An uplifting weekend of joy, laughter, and singing! We cannot wait to share this music with you at our next concert: Welcome Joy and Welcome Sorrow. Please join us on May 16th at 7:00 PM at Leaven Community Center. Tickets are available now on our website!
Rehearsing! Hear the opening to “Shed No Tear” by Imogene Holst, first with voices alone, then with Paul covering the harp part. Can you guess the meter??
We last performed “Spring, the Sweet Spring” by Ēriks Ešenvalds in December, 2023. Lovely medieval-inspired harmonies, bird songs, and tuned water glasses!

Radix is proud and grateful to be a recipient of a 2026 Sustaining Arts Program Grant from the Oregon Arts Commission. We are part of a large and diverse group of nonprofit arts organizations from every corner of Oregon who will benefit from this modest but extremely impactful public support. It makes a huge difference for a tiny organization like ours - and every penny will be spent here in Oregon to benefit our local communities and economy.
The Oregon Arts Commission has awarded $1,759,580 in Sustaining Arts Program grants for fiscal year 2026, benefiting 355 arts organizations! We reimagined this program for a more equitable distribution, using a new formula based on organization expenses and needs. These unrestricted grants, ranging from $1,000 to $20,000, will help invigorate our diverse state's economic and creative expressions.
