Born in Chapel Hill, N.C. in 1946, Loudon Wainwright III came to fame when “Dead Skunk” became a Top 20 hit in 1972. He had studied acting at Carnegie-Mellon University but dropped out to partake in the Summer of Love in San Francisco and wrote his first song in 1968 (“Edgar,” about a lobsterman in Rhode Island). Loudon was signed to Atlantic Records by Nesuhi Ertegun, and after that was lured by Clive Davis to Columbia Records, which released “Dead Skunk.” His songs have since been recorded by the likes of Bonnie Raitt, Johnny Cash, Earl Scruggs, Kate & Anna McGarrigle, his son Rufus Wainwright, and Mose Allison among others.
This world renowned folk legend takes the stage at Vashon Center for the Arts on Wednesday, October 1, 2025. Joining Loudon is special guest, Nashville-based singer/songwriter, Kyshona.

Sept 20, 2025 |7:30pm
CONNECTING ACROSS DIFFERENCES:
Transforming Separation with Nonviolent Communication
Come learn how to transform conflict by applying Nonviolent Communication to reclaim togetherness and restore trust amid separation and polarization. Learn how to use empathy to reclaim other people’s innocence, even when they say or do things that are challenging or scary for us and respond in a way that invites transformation rather than perpetuating fear and separation. Lecture followed by Q & A.
Some of the things we will explore:
What are the internal and external skills to support healing and reconciliation under conditions where there is a break in trust.
How to access everyone’s humanity and create a field of innocence beyond ‘right-wrong’ and ‘either/or’.
How to access people’s vulnerable truths in moments when they are most likely to hide behind their protections.
How to translate judgments, threats, demands and criticism into feelings, longings, “Please and thank you” to help open hearts and make choices that are likely to care for everyone, self-included.
How to hold everyone’s choice firmly, and compensate for power differences, so that everyone’s voices and needs are included and peaceful agreements are made based on true willingness with no coercion or giving up.

September 13, 2025 | 7:30pm
Son Cubano is one of the most popular musical styles in Cuba, and Grammy-nominated Kiki Valera is one of its foremost exponents. Over the last century, this style of traditional Cuban music has contributed to many other genres of music, including Latin jazz, cha cha cha, mambo, salsa and timba. Kiki Valera is the oldest son of the famous La Familia Valera Miranda septet, a multi-generational traditional music group from Santiago de Cuba. Since the 19th century, La Familia Valera Miranda has played a significant role in Cuban culture by collecting and preserving the deep-rooted traditions of the legendary Sierra Maestra mountain region. A multi-instrumentalist, composer, arranger, and producer, he’s best known as one of the world’s greatest players of the Cuban Cuatro, a mid-size guitar with 8 strings grouped in sets of 2. His current project features a talented lineup of musicians and is sure to keep audiences on their feet.
