Studio Bob to host From the Ashes fundraiser

PORT ANGELES — Merryn Welch will present From the Ashes 7 at 8 p.m. Saturday.

The annual fundraiser will be at Studio Bob, 118½ E. Front St., Port Angeles.

Tickets are $25 per person at www.studiobob.art.

The production, which debuted in 2015, raises awareness of domestic violence and supports victims with all ticket and raffle sales benefiting Healthy Families of Clallam County.

“Most every performer and person behind the scenes has had their life or someone close to them impacted by domestic violence,” said Welch, a survivor of domestic violence. “I wish I didn’t feel the need to do this. I wish we didn’t need crisis lines and emergency shelters. I wish domestic violence was a thing of the past, but I believe through education, hard work and standing together as a community, the cycle can be broken.”

The show will feature a variety of performances, including live music, dance, spoken word and performance art from Peninsula performers including Welch, Richard Stephens, Craig Logue, Owl Medicine, Shula Azhar, Matt Bellah, Amori, Mike Drop, Wyk Dreamcaster, Daryl Trowbridge and Transcend.
