Call for Art!

Lynne M. Allison Memorial Art Show
2025 Theme: “Art of Maritime Navigation”

The Cannon Beach Arts Association is pleased to announce a new annual exhibition to celebrate the life and artistic contributions of the late Lynne M. Allison, a talented local artist and cherished member of our Cannon Beach community. This exhibition is designed to honor her legacy by organizing a juried exhibition each year that specifically highlights the diverse subject matter that inspired Lynne in her own artistic works.

A guest juror will choose first, second, and third prize winners from the exhibition. Prize money for the winners is generously provided by Lynne’s foundation.

This year’s theme is Marine Navigation, offering artists various ways to find inspiration. They can use navigation maps and charts as visual pieces, explore themes of adventure, and incorporate tools like compasses and binoculars. Artists can reflect on journeys, both real and symbolic, encouraging viewers to consider their own paths. Natural elements seen by navigators—stars, waves, wind, and marine life—serve as abundant visual and symbolic iconography, the ocean’s beauty and its changing moods, which are essential to navigation can also be considered.

This will be a juried show with cash prizes

First prize =$1000

Second prize – $500

Third prize = $250

Guest Juror: Matthew Palmgren, Assistant Curator for the Columbia River Maritime Museum in Astoria.

JURY DEADLINE: AUGUST 7, 2025

Each submission will be evaluated based on:

Artistic merit

Relevance to the exhibition theme

If the work is “Gallery Ready” meaning dry paint, has the ability to hang on the wall (wire, or sawtooth), has the artists name, title of the work, medium, and price on the back of the piece.

The jury will deliberate to select a predetermined number of works for the exhibition.

Artists whose work is not selected will be notified following the jury decision.

Important dates:

Submission deadline: Drop off artwork August 7, 2025 at the Cannon Beach Gallery, or Submit online through our website.

Pickup of unselected works: If you are not selected for the exhibition please communicate with the gallery about pick up.

*Artist will be disqualified for the jury process if the artwork is not “gallery ready.”

Theft on Neahkahnie

Posted on by North Coast BBQ

Submitted By: nani@naniwaddoups.com – Click to email about this post
Hello All,
I’m sad to report that thieves are in our area. Early Friday morning an older black pick-up truck (no muffler) came up our private driveway and when approached, a woman (one of two people) pretended to be looking for an airbnb and kept us distant from the truck. Later that morning we realized that our two bicycles had been taken from the outdoor shed.

Just wanted everyone to be aware that this happened. We’ve been pretty cavalier about leaving the house and cars unlocked, bikes and tools where someone could snatch them, but now we’re going to be more careful.

Triple your SNAP benefits at the Manzanita Farmers Market!

Posted on by North Coast BBQ

Submitted By: info@manzanitafarmersmarket.com – Click to email about this post
Did you know that the Manzanita Farmers Market accepts SNAP benefits, and that we give you a triple match to spend at the market?

Up to $20 each week, we will give you $20 more in Double Up Food Bucks, good for fresh produce, and $20 in extra SNAP tokens, funded by Fulcrum Community Resources and our local sponsors. Every week, you can spend $20 in SNAP and get $60 to spend at the market!

It’s easy to do. When you arrive at the market, go to the info booth, just inside the main entrance on Division Street. We will run your card and give you tokens to spend with our vendors. All vendors selling SNAP eligible products accept the tokens, so you can purchase produce, bread, meat, eggs, canned goods, pastries, and more. Tokens don’t expire, and can be used throughout the season.

Thanks to our local sponsors who have made this possible: Fulcrum Community Resources, Viridian Architecture, and Sunset Vacation Rentals. And thanks to the Farmers Market Fund for administering and funding the Double Up Food Bucks program.

Want to help us fund the triple match through the season and increase food security in our community? Email me to learn more about our sponsorship program!

SNAP, or Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, was formerly known as food stamps. The federally funded program aims to increase food access and security.
