Recently deceased artistic genius Charles Tatum and very-much-alive jazz genius Thara Memory will both be honored at the Charles Tatum Memorial Jam at the Interstate Firehouse Cultural Center on Nov. 1 at 7 p.m. Tatum was a celebrated metal and wood sculptor in Portland for decades until his death in Bandon this year. His widow, Patricia Soltys, and community members will bestow Memory with the first ever Charles Tatum Falcon Poet award at the concert. The award includes Tatum's statue, The Falcon.
