Fire exhibit
It’s already started, but check out World Forestry Center’s exhibit “Following Fire, A Resilient Forest/An Uncertain Future,” which shows through March 30, 2025. From publicity: In September 2020, the Holiday Farm Fire, driven by fierce east winds, burned 173,000 acres along the forested McKenzie River canyon in the Cascade Range of Oregon. Two months later, in an impulsive response, photographer David Paul Bayles and disturbance ecologist Frederick Swanson began a photography project to document the stark beauty of the burned forest and its vibrant response to fire. World Forestry Center, 4033 S.W. Canyon Road, is open 11 a.m.-4 p.m. Wednesdays-Sundays.

‘Twelfth Night’
Portland Center Stage puts on the Shakespeare-inspired show, Nov. 29 through Dec. 22 at The Armory, titled “Twelfth Night, Or What You Will.” The story: When Viola washes ashore, her twin brother Sebastian is lost at sea. Disguises, mistaken identities and unrequited love show them that shipwrecks may be the least of their problems. It’s one of Shakespeare’s most enduring comedies with love, mischief, music and libations.
