Clowns Without Borders
The show must go…online! The annual Clowns Without Borders fundraiser will offer “Pandemic Pandemonium” streaming shows featuring favorite local performers joined by prominent international artists. The circus moves into guests’ living rooms to raise money to send clowns around the world so people can experience laughter, play, and feel hope, especially during humanitarian crises. The benefit includes two shows: one for children and all-ages with interactive elements and music starring Marisol Kimberly Rosa-Shapiro, Mike Funt, and Meredith Gordon; and an adult-focused show including performances by Portland’s Leapin’ Louie Lichtenstein and Poki McCorkle.
Service Disruption Update
Update from Suzanne Nance: Tuesday February 16, 2021
As a result of the ice storms in the area, All Classical Portland has experienced disruptions for the last several days to our FM/HD service and the online stream.
Our dedicated team of engineers has been working tirelessly around the clock, and we are thrilled to share that the online stream has been restored! You can once again listen online from anywhere in the world at allclassical.org.
What happened
When our building lost power at 3am Monday morning and the back-up generator failed, All Classical Portland’s engineers jumped into action. We are now operating on the generator which must be refueled routinely. This is a temporary measure until full power has been restored. During this time, our internet connection was also affected, and is now operating at 10%. Station staff is working remotely with limited access to internet and power, in order to conserve fuel and connectivity for the most impor
Due to network issues, All Classical Portland’s Tili-Cam is unavailable. Our engineering team is hard at work to restore this service. In the meantime, we encourage you to enjoy our online web stream. Thank you for your patience and support!
