REBEL FOR A CAUSE – Sitkans dance on stage at Harrigan Centennial Hall Saturday night as John Gourley, frontman for the band Portugal. The Man, sings the band’s 2017 megahit “Feel it Still.” Saturday’s concert as well as live and silent auctions were a fundraiser for the Point House reconstruction project, an effort to rebuild a Tlingit clan house that was torn down in 1997. The concert also included a collection for franceschangedmylife.com, a fundraising campaign to find a cure for a rare genetic disease that Gourley’s daughter Frances has.
