(Newport, Oregon) – Besides the Fourth of July, there’s simply a ton to do during summer in the central Oregon coast town of Newport. Even Depoe Bay gets in on the act with a host of live music at one of its venues. Culture and the arts seem to be the prevailing themes in these burghs, with the Newport Performing Arts Center providing an enormous chunk of shows in the theater and classical veins. Yet you’ll also find a rodeo and a good ol’ fashioned car event.

As if that wasn't enough, there's even an appearance by famed actor Ed Asner.
