This series of sound meditations focus on the gifts of each season. Consciously aligning to nature can assist us through the natural cycles of life; death, hibernation/contemplation, rebirth and bounty. Please join us for this series that will take you on a reflective, healing journey throughout the next four seasons.

Friday, January 19th- Winter Sound Meditation:

Winter is a time of contemplation and self-reflection.
What will emerge for you in the silent contemplation of winter?

After the long quiet winter, spring is the time to plant the seeds of your dreams. What do you want to create in your life?

14th Annual North County Pie Day Auction and Feast
Saturday, Jan. 27st at
White Clover Grange 3 PM

It’s the 14th Annual North County Pie Day! This annual and fun event takes place on Saturday January 27 at the White Clover Grange in Nehalem (36585 Highway 53) and is a fundraiser for the Grange building fund.
Fifteen dollars ($5 for children 10 and under) opens the door to a fast paced pie auction with the funny and entertaining Susan Tone returning for her 6th year as auctioneer. The auction features two dozen creative, delicious, and impressive pies from local bakers, chefs, and restaurants. And after the auction, there will be a pie and ice cream feast–fruit pies, custard pies, savory pies, vegan pies, gluten-free pies, and various pies-but-not-pies – all of them will be at this event! In addition, the incredible Liz Cole will kick off the festivities with her traditional and always compelling performance of “Ode to Pie.” (See her 2020 rendition at
https://youtu.be/ujcux-3WPhc )
Join your community on Saturday, January 27st! Doors open at 2:30 pm and the auction starts at 3. There’s nothing better to get you through a winter’s afternoon than bidding on a delicious, locally made pie and then celebrating by eating lots of great pie and ice cream, all while supporting the White Clover Grange. Continue the ongoing work of maintaining our 103 year old building as a functional community resource.

Ten Fifteen to kickoff 2024 with a trip down memory lane.

Shooting Star explores the woulda-coulda-shouldas that come with examining one’s past relationships. This tender-hearted story of past love is perfect for fans of both traditional and nontraditional romance… just in time for Valentine’s Day! This production marks the first of the community theater’s new season and will play for three weekends in their Downtown Astoria space.

About the Show: Snowed in overnight at a middle-America airport, college lovers Elena Carson and Reed McAllister have an unexpected and life-altering reunion. Elena has stayed true to her hippie-ish, counter-culture path, while Reed has gone predictably corporate and conservative. As the night gives way to laughter, banter, remembrance and alcohol, Elena and Reed revisit a past that holds more surprises than they imagined—and a present that neither of them could have predicted. Filled with laughter and ache, Shooting Star is a bittersweet romantic comedy about the middle days of our lives, and how we got there.

Cast:
Elena Carson – Gigi Chadwick
Reed McAllister – John Darcy

Essential Information:
Shooting Star by Steven Dietz
Directed by Danyelle Tinker

February 2nd, 3rd, 9th, 10th, 15th, 16th, and 17th at 7:30pm

“It was a dark and stormy night….”
That may be one way to begin a story, but writers will undoubtedly find many other ways to start their submissions to the Cannon Beach Library’s Writers Read Celebration, with the theme, “Beach Noir.”
In its sixth year, Writers Read offers writers of all ages from everywhere the opportunity to write on a specific theme. All written formats will be considered (essay, story, poetry, haiku, script, etc.). The deadline for submissions is Feb. 2.
Noir fiction often takes place in a dark or foreboding setting, though the tone and descriptions can be unconventional and playful. Other elements may include flashes of humor, flawed underdog characters or a crime scene.
A panel of volunteers will select 10 to 12 works to be read by their authors during the celebration on March 22 in person at the library or via Zoom.
Authors are limited to three entries with a 600-word maximum per entry.
Submissions should be in Word format. Include a separate cover letter with the writer’s name, email and phone number. Please do not include the author’s name or contact information on the entry document so authors remain anonymous to the reading panel.
Email submissions to info@cannonbeachlibrary.org or mail them to P.O. Box 486 Cannon Beach, OR 97110. Email is preferred.
The NW Authors Series Committee sponsors monthly author presentations and other events at the Cannon Beach Library. A recording of last year’s Writers Read Celebration is available on the library’s website, cannonbeachlibrary.org/events-and-programs/recorded-presentations. It also appears on the library’s YouTube page.
