Hoffman Gallery Show September 2022

September Exhibition ~ featuring the paintings of
Jef Gunn and Martha Bergman and sculptures by Bill Atwood
September 1-25 | 1:00-5:00pm
Thursdays through Sundays
Hoffman Center for the Arts | 594 Laneda Avenue | Manzanita

Land and water and sky form the basis for our experience on the Earth. Over the past three-plus decades, I’ve been painting more or less abstractly in encaustic and collage. And all this time, even since the mid-70s, I’ve also been painting landscapes in oil paints from observation, en plein air.

For this show, we’ve chosen plein air paintings done on the Oregon coast and two from Puget Sound. Most are fairly recent. One painting is from 2001: I had read a book about Monet’s method of painting on the edge of moment-by-moment seeing. To try this out, I rented a shack of a cabin in Oceanside and painted every day from the porch while a storm raged.

Intro to Acupuncture Appointments this Friday!

Submitted By: revolutionginger@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
Do you love acupuncture as much as I do?

I can’t tell you exactly how it works but as soon as acupuncture needles go into my body, I drop into a deep reset mode like a computer that’s been running too many programs for too long.

I wake up from a session feeling like I’ve finally caught up on the rest my body’s been needing for months!

If you love acupuncture- or maybe if you’re just curious to try it out, I’m happy to announce that
local practitioner Megan Lucas L.A.C is offering three 90 minute introductory sessions this Friday at North Fork 53 Communitea Wellness.

“I graduated with my masters In Chinese Medicine from the Oregon College of Oriental Medicine in 2012 and went right into being a mom- so I know firsthand how challenging it can be to keep everything balanced in a busy life.

I love acupuncture because of how fast it helps people heal from so many things- everything from emotional stress to chronic injuries.

If people are scared of acupuncture needles I tell them that are very fine-are not much bigger in diameter than a hair. Most of the time you won’t even feel them going in.” – Megan Lucas L.A.C

What’s a first session like?

For new patients the first 90 minute session begins with an in-depth intake which involves questions about life-style, body and dietary habits as well as reading pulses and tongue diagnosis.

A full acupuncture treatment may include a Hara or energy diagnosis and shiatsu massage treatment, guasha (fascial release for adhesions, muscle tension etc) and moxibustion with cupping if needed (the burning of mugwort over areas of the body).

“I want to work with anyone who is ready to heal, no matter if what you’re dealing with is acute or chronic-spiritual, emotional or physical in nature. You deserve to be the most vibrant healthy version of yourself and I want to help you get there.”
-Megan Lucas L.A.C.

Book your Friday acupuncture appointment using the link below. You can also book a massage afterwards for the complete relaxation and healing experience!

Times offered are 10:30am,12:15 pm & 2:00 pm

Bee Well,

Back by Popular Demand- visiting massage therapist this Fri/Sat at North Fork 53

Submitted By: revolutionginger@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
Back by popular demand!

Manual massage therapist Alexi Hedlund returns this Fri/Sat for more appointments at North Fork 53 Communitea Wellness.

Alexi’s massage sessions booked out quickly when she last visited in August so we are bringing her back to give you another opportunity to see her!

This style of massage is a bit different from what you may have experienced in the past.

It is exceptionally good for chronic pain, recurring headaches, limited range of movement, ongoing anxiety, post covid recovery, and injury recovery.

If you have been wanting to get a massage for pain or mobility but don’t like removing your clothes for an appointment- this is a great opportunity for you.

How’s it different than regular massages?

-you can wear comfortable, loose fitting clothes

-your overall health, digestion, sleep patterns, history will be taken into consideration before the session.

-your posture is used to create a path for the session.

-your massage will be a blend of techniques including gentle holding in specific positions over periods of time, Cranial Sacral, Myofascial Release, supported stretching and trigger point therapy.

-you’ll get tools and stretches to take home with you to continue your healing after your session.

Alexi is a compassionate healer and listener who spent 13 years of her practice working with the elderly and hospice patients.

If you are shy about getting massage- but need relief from pain or stress- I encourage you to try her out!

Book your appointment Friday/Saturday 10am-5pm

Mark your ballot for “Kuestner”

Submitted By: MarkForCouncil2022@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
My name is Mark Kuestner and I’m running for Manzanita City Council. I have been visiting Manzanita voters at their homes to be sure I hear the topics that concern our citizens most.

There are many important civic and fiscal issues under consideration right now, from long-overdue revisions of the Comprehensive Plan, finding new municipal revenue sources, to restructuring Short-Term Rentals in our community. We have an opportunity for discussions, to listen to each other, and to come together to find solutions to our problems. Each and everyone of us needs to participate in this process. This is why I’ve selected “Act together. Shape our future.” as the guiding principles of my campaign.

As we all continue to engage in public discussions, we face difficult questions and decisions. Frequently this boils down to what precisely do we want for Manzanita and how are we going to pay for it?

Luckily, we already have some city government structures recently put in place that will help us all to participate and be heard: The new Short Term Rental Committee had its first meeting on August 4th, and will be seating the final two volunteer members soon. The city has an initial budget appropriation to move ahead with revising the Comprehensive Plan, and hence the ordinances that underpin it. On August 29th, the City hosted a public meeting at Pine Grove to discuss and write down our ideas for building the new City Facilities. I participated in that public meeting along with many others. Neighbors gathered at tables to answer a set of questions to help the City and its project team understand our concerns, needs, and vision of the City. We engaged in good conversation: people talking, listening, and coming together.

While these structures are in place, they are newly initiated. We are fortunate to have a very strong, talented, and experienced City Manager, Leila Aman. She’s made a remarkable impact in her short tenure. Your next Council will have much to do to bring our village’s visions, and its supporting ordinances, up-to-date. I’m ready to do that work. I hope to see many of us participating in these efforts. Again, we need to act together so we can shape our future.

During the past five years, I have attended, listened, and asked questions at Budget Committee, Planning Commission, Short Term Rental Workgroup, and City Council meetings. I have had lengthy conversations with members of these committees to better understand their work and the Oregon legislative constraints under which they operate. I am ready to hit the ground running!

I encourage you to attend City Council meetings, including the one scheduled for today, Wednesday, September 7th at 6pm, where candidates seeking to complete Hans Tonjes’ Council term will be publicly interviewed. A new Councilor will be appointed at that meeting. You can read the agenda and join the meeting from the City’s website calendar (ci.manzanita.or.us/calendar/).

I have become more and more convinced that by participating in these meetings, we can make meaningful decisions to benefit us all. I’m asking you to cast your vote for me in November. I am looking forward to being elected to represent all citizens in Manzanita.

Launch of petition to protect drinking water and watershed

 

Submitted By: bbq@nehalemtel.net – Click to email about this post

Posted by rfelley [mailto:rfelley@nehalemtel.net]
We have just launched a petition, “Stop Clearcutting, Slash Burns and Pesticide Sprays Near Drinking Water Sources on the Oregon Coast” aimed at building momentum around protecting our forests and drinking watersheds. Please sign the petition and share it with everyone you know!

the link: petitions.sumofus.org/p/healthywatershed

The aim is to build up a network of support for our cause, and spread awareness, because many people throughout Oregon and around the nation are unaware of the impacts of current industrial forestry practices in Oregon. We want the eyes of our local communities, as well as the eyes of the world, to turn towards our forests and their watersheds.

We aim to gather 10,000 signatures or more, and we will present the petition to local and state elected officials, timber corporations, and relevant agencies.

Thanks for your help, North Coast Community for Watershed Protection

North Coast Communities for Watershed Protection (formerly Rockaway Beach Citizens for Watershed Protection) is a grassroots group working, through education and advocacy, for better protections of the water we drink, the air we breathe, and the forests that sustain us. healthywatershed.org | www.facebook.com/NCCWATERSHEDPROTECTION
