New Owner of spa manzanita

Submitted By: janicebge@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
Hello dear friends of spa manzanita,
I am writing to you all today to let you know that I have sold spa manzanita.

Back in 2006 when I thought opening a day spa in Manzanita “might work” and “someone should do it, so why not me? I had no idea of what an amazing journey I would go down. So so many stories, adventures and relationships, tears and success!
I feel very blessed (and a bit lucky), to have created this wonderful place in our beautiful town. But there is no way I could have done it without your support and kindness. This very much includes the spa staff over the years. I was very fortunate to have such a great team along the way.we
I will truly miss seeing you walk in the door of the spa, your smile and hugs that have been there over the many years, but they are all held in my heart forever!

The new owner Maggie is absolutely wonderful, again I have been blessed with the most perfect person to take the spa on and continue to service our community. Not only is she the new owner of spa manzanita but she is a new dear friend of mine.

I am not going away (except for a 2 week road trip in May in my new Transit van), my husband Mike and I are staying right here. I plan on continuing my work as a Health/Wellness Coach, and of course surfing, fishing and having fun any way I can.

Gratitude fills my heart right now, and a bit of sadness, but mostly joy and love!
Thank you,
Janice Gaines-Ehlen
please feel free to reach out to me, and stay in touch janicebge@gmail.com

2022 ‘CONVERSATIONS WITH FUNDERS AND PARTNERS’ GOES VIRTUAL APRIL 12-21! (PHOTO)

News Release from Oregon Cultural Trust
Posted on FlashAlert: March 31st, 2022 9:26 AM

Salem, Ore. – Grant makers offering more than $5 million in funding for FY2023 will gather virtually with the Oregon Cultural Trust for four regional 2022 “Conversations with Funders and Partners” events from 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. on April 12 (Southern Oregon), April 14 (Portland Metro/Willamette Valley), April 19 (Central/Eastern Oregon) and April 21 (Oregon Coast).

The free online interactive events will enable grant seekers to learn about funding programs available and will include breakout rooms where they can discuss their projects and programming with specific funders. NOTE: Capacity is limited, so early registration is encouraged: bit.ly/3uKuQ3X

Participating with the Cultural Trust will be representatives from three of its Statewide Partners – the Oregon Arts Commission, Oregon Heritage and Oregon Humanities – as well as colleagues from the James F. and Marion L. Miller Foundation and Travel Oregon.

Organizations encouraged to attend “Conversations with Funders and Partners” include community development organizations, libraries, arts organizations, museums, cultural and community centers, parks and trails groups, historical societies, arts alliances, literary groups and heritage organizations. All cultural nonprofit organizations that are planning cultural projects are welcome.

“There are more than 1,500 cultural nonprofits serving Oregonians,” said Aili Schreiner, Cultural Trust manager. “We want to make sure they know about the significant funding and programming resources that are available to support them.”

Oregon Cultural Trust Cultural Development Program

Among the funding opportunities discussed at the online Conversations event will be the Cultural Trust’s FY2023 Cultural Development Program (funds to be awarded summer of 2022).

The Cultural Development Program recognizes and supports significant projects through four program funded categories: Access; Preservation; Creativity; and Capacity.

In 2021 the Cultural Trust awarded more than $3.2 million in statewide grants. Cultural Development Program grants represent one third of the annual funding the Cultural Trust provides to Oregon’s cultural nonprofits. Other funding includes grants to the Trust’s five statewide partners – to support their mission goals and respective funding programs – and to 45 county and tribal cultural coalitions that fund local initiatives, projects and programs.

FY2023 Cultural Development Program grants are for projects and activities that will occur between Sept. 1, 2022, and Aug. 31, 2023.

Grant guidelines are now posted for a Friday, May 6, application deadline.

For more information contact Schreiner at aili.schreiner@biz.oregon.gov or 503- 428-0963.

North County Food Bank and Clothing Bank Building Reopens

Submitted By: northtillamookcountyfoodbank@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
The North County Food Bank and Clothing Bank is excited to announce that we will be welcoming our neighbors back inside the Food Bank building starting Tuesday, April 5. In addition to shelter from wind and rain, you’ll find our free racks stocked with extra goodies for Food Bank clients as well as children’s books and information about community resources.

The Clothing Bank will also be open for browsing. Full racks of clothing, linens, and other miscellaneous items await you. You do not need to be a Food Bank client to access the Clothing Bank. It’s a community resource for all who need clothing.

The Food Bank also offers free at-home Covid tests and masks if you need them. We do ask that folks wear masks while in the building to protect our volunteers, most of whom are over 65. Clients not wishing to mask can have their orders taken outside and we’ll bring the food out.

A special thanks to our community for its ongoing support of the Food Bank during the pandemic. We really appreciated all the coats and warm clothing donated during our February coat drive.

Hours are 12 pm – 3 pm on Tuesdays. We can also take donations of food, clothing, or hygiene items during those hours. We are located at 278 Rowe Street in Wheeler, across the parking lot from the Nehalem Bay Health Center and Pharmacy (Rinehart Clinic).

in2Egress Casting Call – 20 something couple

Submitted By: nehalembayexperience@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
Hello. My name is Drew Reid and I am creating a short film called in2Egress this June. Original script/local cast-crew/set around the Nehalem Bay.
PLOT= After 17 years in a state psychiatric facility, Henry Tohl is returning to his home town. Local apprehension is surpassed only by his family’s dread of the truth Henry is bringing with him.
Speaking of Henry, I have found someone far beyond my expectations to become Henry. Now I’m sure we can create something very interesting.
Next I’m looking for a young (over 20-under 30 in appearance) couple to play the parts of young folks struggling to accept the fact that they have passed. A couple because they are fighting and only a real couple could give me those looks.
TIME= Rehearsal is about 2 hours. Filming is 4-6 hours in one day (in theory). No acting background needed, just a desire to shine.
If this is something you both would like to try, contact me at nehalembayexperience@gmail.com
This is a link to the Casting Call Trailer = https://youtu.be/J932adC-0L4
Cheers, Drew.

Community members with seeds to share are encouraged to bring them and trade.

Last Weekend For Hoffman Gallery March Show

Submitted By: hoffmanartsnews@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
Last Weekend!
Hoffman Gallery March
Open Friday through Sunday
March 4-27 | 1:00-5:00pm
Free and open to the public
Hoffman Center for the Arts | 594 Laneda Avenue | Manzanita

Featuring the works of
Alana Garrigues, Susan Walsh, and Rick Crawford

Alana Garrigues

Alana Garrigues is an intuitive artist and poet, and co-host of {within} community, an online collective of female artists and makers. Her artwork is deeply informed by the nature of the Pacific Northwest and a sense of innate relationship between human story, memory, and art itself.

Susan Walsh

Two things inspired me to do this work. First and foremost, working with Master Cabinetmaker, James Krenov. His books and his teachings have inspired my work throughout my career. The second inspiration was reading the book “Overstory” by Richard Powers. One of the main characters in the book is a majestic Redwood Tree.

Rick Crawford

Rick Crawford is a sculptor and jeweler in Astoria, Oregon. He strives to utilize as much repurposed materials in his pieces as possible. His influences range from interests in the natural world, ancient history and archaeology, and ancient tribal iconography, as well as the various cultures that he encounters in his travels.
