It’s a place where young artists grow, create, and discover what they’re capable of. Designed for a wide range of skill levels, our camp offers hands-on instruction in painting, sculpture, and mixed media, led by experienced teaching artists.
Set against the inspiring backdrop of Cannon Beach, students spend their days immersed in creativity, collaboration, and fun. They build confidence not only in their artistic abilities, but also in expressing ideas, solving problems, and working alongside peers in a supportive environment.
The week concludes with a Pop-Up Gallery Showcase, where families and the community are invited to celebrate each student’s work and creative growth, an experience students remember long after camp ends.
We believe access to the arts matters, which is why we offer a limited number of scholarships each year to help ensure every child has the opportunity to participate.
Spots fill quickly! Early registration is strongly encouraged.
Camp Dates: July 13–17, 2026
Location: Cannon Beach Community Church, 132 E. Washington Street
Pop-Up Gallery Showcase: Saturday, July 18 (10:30 AM–12:30 PM)

In the past few days, the American people have received information on how much the war in Iran is costing American citizens. According to what I have read the military operations in Iran, famously named “Operation Epic Fury”, as of Mid-May 2026 cost approximately $29 billion. I’ve decided to rename this event as a WAR and more specifically, “Trumps Epic Fury of a War”. We most certainly hope this does not happen again on his watch. Most of us have a difficult time wrapping our brains around such a figure. Some friends and I were trying to break this figure down so we might understand it a little better. So, we can all relate to $1, $10, $100, $1,000, $10,000, and maybe $100,000. After that figure, fewer of us can start to relate. Let us continue with $1,000,000, $10,000,000, $100,000,000-no, we’re still not there yet. $1,000,000,000-is a billion dollars. Now we’re going to times that by 29…$29,000,000,000 is $29 billion. Now you can perhaps relate to what it would be like to be a billionaire. Maybe.
PLEASE VOTE! Your ballot needs to be in by May 19 so please find it, fill it out, and get it where it needs to go. No postage is necessary. As is said, Your Vote is Your Voice!
Please come and join the North County Resistance in Nehalem on Saturday, May 16, from noon to 2 PM. If you can, bring a jar of peanut butter and a jar of jelly for our two outlets for food, the North County Food Bank and the Nehalem Bay Community Services. Or bring whatever food you would like to donate. Your donations to these two organizations is gratefully received. A cash or check donation can be made to the North County Food Bank, PO Box 162, Wheeler, Oregon, 97147 or Nehalem Bay Community Services, PO Box 232, Nehalem, Oregon, 97131. If you bring your donation to the peaceful protest, we will make sure your donation goes where you want it to go. And your donation to either organization is tax deductible.
Let’s talk next time about getting the underground work done on our new food bank. A rather expensive operation. I understand there are a few $1,000 donors out there just waiting to send in their checks. Let’s get some people on board who know how to put those zeros on their checks!
Thanks for listening and see you Saturday!
Best,
Patty

Looking for dinner, or a fresh treat? Our food court welcomes back all our vendors from last year, with Gnarly’s tacos, Malia’s Grill poke, Antojitos Don Berna smoothies, and Blessed hot donuts. The Sasquatch food truck will miss the first couple of weeks, but he’ll be back soon.
How about cheese? After a couple year hiatus, we’re very happy to have Tillamook County’s own Nestucca Bay Creamery back at the market. They bring a variety of fresh and aged cheeses from their own herd of pastured cows. Coupled with long time market favorite Fraga Farm’s goat cheese (check out their Instagram for adorable goat videos), we’re happy to represent the dairy production our county is so famous for!
I’m told it’s a good omen if it rains at the first market, and my weather app says “cloudy with a passing shower”. And oh boy do we need the rain! It’s been an incredibly warm dry spring, and our farmers have been pressed to get irrigation out early and keep young plants happy on those unseasonably hot days. I’ll be honest that I’m hoping it doesn’t rain between 4 and 7 on Friday, but if it does this is a great chance to prove your coastie cred. We are open rain or shine come support your local vendors!
And let’s dance in the rain! Our opening music act is Randy and Ray, a side duo of Astoria’s Brownsmead Flats. Rocking the guitar, mandolin, and keyboard, we can expect upbeat, danceable tunes to kick off the season! I’ll be publishing the full music schedule soon.
And remember: we accept SNAP benefits and triple match them, giving you $60 to spend for $20 in SNAP benefits every week.
See you this Friday and every Friday through September, 4-7, at Underhill Plaza behind City Hall, 635 Manzanita Ave!
