Live Music: Deep Sea Diver
Deep Sea Diver is a Seattle-based rock band led by guitarist and vocalist Jessica Dobson, who recently signed up with Sub Pop Records to release their music to the world and beyond.
The rapturous “Billboard Heart” is a stunning introduction to Deep Sea Diver’s universe. The song puts Dobson and her band in the company of St. Vincent, TV on the Radio, and Flock of Dimes, bands that have found ornate and magnetic ways to make indie rock by discarding notions of how it must sound or what it must say. Dobson punches through her past here with this new song and forthcoming album. As she howls during “Billboard Heart,” she is “welcoming the future by letting go of it.”
Dobson offers this in the song “‘Billboard Heart,” which is a song that felt like a strange transmission, a new emotion, and a spirit-filled dream when it came. It is my nod to the simplicity of my favorite Tom Petty songs and my love for Wim Wenders’ film Paris, Texas. The feeling of standing in the lonesome desert, embracing every particle of yourself, even the ones that are hard to look at, and fighting for your spirit to move through this world without entanglement. It is about being present and embracing the future while wholeheartedly letting go of any control I think I have in this life. ‘Billboard Heart’ is both a longing for something that may not exist and a place where I can be free.”
“Billboard Heart” is Deep Sea Diver’s first new music since Impossible Weight, the band’s Billboard charting album from 2020. It includes the title track duet with Sharon Van Etten and “Stop Pretending,” which made “NPR Music’s “100 Best Songs of 2020.” Impossible Weight was also #1 on KEXP’s “Top 90.3 Albums of 2020” list.
In addition to her work as Deep Sea Diver, Dobson has logged time as a touring member for Beck and The Shins and has performed with numerous other musicians, including Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Spoon, Boeckner, and Dinosaur Jr. In addition to headline touring, they’ve supported the likes of Death Cab for Cutie and Wilco. Most recently, Deep Sea Diver played to the largest audiences of their career, supporting Pearl Jam twice within the last year — first with a handful of dates in the Fall of 2023 and, more recently, a lengthier run in May 2024.
Family Event: April Fools' Scavenger Hunt
Fort Walla Walla Museum is officially ready for spring! April is the start of our annual April Fools Scavenger Hunt. Modern items will be hidden in some of the Museum’s exhibits—list them all and get a prize in the Museum Store!
The first day of the event is Saturday, April 1st, and the last day is Sunday, April 30th. The Museum is open from 10 am-5 pm daily. Guests are invited to participate in the Scavenger Hunt, a fun way to talk about the exhibits and identify some things that don’t quite belong.
Live Music: ACTORS
From Vancouver, Canada, post-punk new wave outfit ACTORS provides driving beats, massive hooks, and dramatic atmospheres that are equally melancholy and electrifying. “Cinematic” is a worn-out word, but here, it is simply impossible not to envision movie scenes unfolding as each track plays.
In 2018, the Jason Corbett-led foursome signed with Toronto-based Artoffact Records and released its long-awaited debut, It Will Come to You, and quickly became one of the marquee acts on the label. Corbett writes, produces, mixes, and masters all ACTORS music at his own Vancouver studio, Jacknife Sound, and names David Bowie as a fundamental influence – Bowie’s sense of confidence and creativity are in full effect on It Will Come to You. But much more than a retro act, this music stands on its own, full of life and unforgettable hooks. Perhaps best described as a “post-post-punk” band, ACTORS belongs in the mix alongside bands like The Soft Moon and Cold Cave, pushing music forward via a deep knowledge of the past.
ACTORS spent the 18 months after the release of It Will Come to You touring the USA, Canada, and Europe while hitting many of the best-loved festivals, including Terminus Festival, Wave-Gotik-Treffen, Cold Waves, Infest, A Murder of Crows, and many others. The band gave sessions to LA’s Part Time Punks and Seattle’s KEXP, while their songs “Slaves” & “Crystal” found their way to episodes of the Netflix series The Order, and “We Don’t Have to Dance” was featured in Nancy Drew. In Late 2020, ACTORS announced a new single, “Love U More,” with Juno-Award-winning director Peter Ricq contributing his talents to the accompanying video.
Three years later, the follow-up, Acts Of Worship, broke hearts and set fire to dance floors. Corbett points to legends who changed the face of pop music in their day – David Bowie, Roxy Music, Duran Duran – as inspirations. “It’s about embracing who you are and having the confidence to do what you feel and not be afraid,” he says. The album saw the debut of new bassist Kendall Wooding. Corbett noted that the current lineup, completed by synth player Shannon Hemmett and drummer Adam Fink, perfectly reflects the balance of masculine and feminine energy contained within the songs.
Opening the concert is the experimental post-punk electronic duo Plasticstatic. Their unique style blends shoegaze atmosphere with esoteric electronic washes for a truly special sound that rides the razor-thin margin between organic and electronic.
Community Event: Free Open House
The Museum Open House is a chance for residents to see what’s new at the old fort — and to mark the official re-opening of the Pioneer Village for the warmer months!

Please participate in our month-long April Fool’s Scavenger Hunt! Modern items will be hidden in some of the Museum’s exhibits, and young and old eyes can work together to find these historical inaccuracies. As you discover stories from the past, from the Oregon Trail to the horse-powered wheat harvest, kids can record things that are out of place. If you can list enough of them, you will win a small prize in the Museum Store! It’s a fun way to talk about the exhibits and identify some things that don’t quite belong.

Community Event: Lewis & Clark — Living History Weekend
The Pacific Northwest Living Historians (PNLH) will demonstrate the tools and skills employed by the explorers of the epic Lewis and Clark expedition.
Captain Meriwether Lewis and Captain William Clark were sent by President Thomas Jefferson to explore the newly acquired Louisiana Territory and to seek the best route to the Pacific Ocean through what we now call the Pacific Northwest. During their voyage of 1804 – 1806, they led the Corps of Northwestern Discovery overland from St. Louis, Missouri, to the mouth of the Columbia River and back again. With no means for resupply, the Corps (a U.S. Army unit of 31 men accompanied by Sacagawea and her infant child, Jean Baptiste) needed to use diverse skills and the right tools to survive.
Dressed in clothing of the style and materials worn by the members of the Corps in 1805-1806, PNLH interpreters will demonstrate and discuss many of those tools and skills, such as handling flintlock firearms, camp cooking, making clothing from leather, and making canoe paddles. Visitors can learn the history and stories of the Lewis and Clark expedition: the native people that they met, the unfamiliar territory they traveled and mapped, and the strange new animals and plants they discovered.

Community Event: Truck Show
Not too long ago, horses were replaced by “speed wagons,” motorized vehicles. Fort Walla Walla Museum is excited to recognize that history with the American Truck Historical Society, which will host its annual truck show.
Come out for the day and see locally owned vintage trucks, pickup trucks, vintage cars, and “old iron” on display. Meet the owners and enjoy stories about their vehicles and equipment. The Annual Truck Show includes the Blue Mountain Chapter members’ vehicles and equipment, which reflects the road transportation history and the connection with the region.
The Blue Mountain Chapter of the ATHS organizes and runs the truck show. Forty to fifty vehicles, including farm trucks, pickups, and semis, are expected to be displayed, along with small engines, tractors, and other transportation items.
Incorporated in 1971, the American Truck Historical Society preserves the history of trucks, the trucking industry, and its pioneers. An annual convention has been held each year since 1972, with a public antique truck show added in 1980. If you are interested, have stories to share, or enjoy seeing and “feeling” old trucks and cars, we look forward to meeting you!
This is the perfect event for families. There will be live music, food, fun, and fine vehicles.

Evensong on the campus of Walla Walla University began in 1962 and takes place about eight times per year. Two teachers, professor of music Melvin K. West (organist) and professor of communications Loren Dickinson (reader), wanted to shape a service to mark the end of the Sabbath. Because of this, the service changes time throughout the year to coincide with sunset.
Community Event: Honoring Women Peacebuilders in Africa and Beyond
Richard Middleton-Kaplan is the director of Academic Support Services at Whitman College. In 2011, Richard spent a sabbatical at the Centre for Applied Human Rights at the University of York, helping to develop a literature and human rights course. His publications include “Using Literature to Teach Peace” in Peace Research: The Canadian Journal of Peace and Conflict Studies.
What makes women’s peacebuilding movements so effective—often more effective than larger-scale national and international initiatives? Why is the work of women peacebuilders less well-known and celebrated than their male counterparts? Is the collective nature of women’s peacemaking work a reason it’s both effective and underappreciated?
In this talk, meet peacebuilders beyond the usual names like Mother Theresa and Jane Addams and gain an appreciation for the collective nature of women’s peacebuilding activities. Glimpse the more peaceful horizon that could dawn if we inspired and supported women’s peacebuilding collectives.

Comedy: Kira Soltanovich
Kira Soltanovich is a comedian, actress, and writer best known for her correspondent work on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno for almost 9 years. She was the Phony Photo Booth, which turned into the show’s longest-running comedy piece. (that didn’t have Jay in it). Kira teams up with Jay Leno again in the You Bet Your Life game show reboot, which is now in syndication on FOX.
Kira has a half-hour stand-up special on Showtime called Here Comes Trouble and a one-hour stand-up special on Amazon called You Did This To Me. She’s the sidekick to host Donald Faison on the Netflix game show Winsanity, and she’s been a recurring comedian on several FOX television shows: Punchline and The Drama. Kira was a series regular on two seasons of TruTV’s How To Be A Grownup and also shot two seasons of the Facebook series The Turndown, which was shot exclusively in a bed.
Many fans remember her from the hidden camera show Girls Behaving Badly, where she was a series regular for 4 seasons. Kira has been featured on Comedy Central, NBC’s Last Comic Standing, Nickelodeon, and several Disney shows, and one of her most unique claim-to-fame moments came when Hell’s Kitchen made her the “prize” for the winning team of chefs who got a night out at The Laugh Factory on the Sunset Strip.
Kira was born in the former Soviet Union, traded for grains from the United States, and immigrated to America when she was two. Kira honed her comedy chops throughout grade school and until high school graduation. It’s incredible how telling an angry principal a few jokes can get you out of serious trouble.
