Art Class for Kids!

Submitted By: tigrereeva@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
Hello North Coast Community!
I am offering another series of Art Classes for the Winter-Spring term. Classes start Monday, January 22nd and Wednesday January 24th and will be held at the NCRD Kitchen Room from 4-5:30.
Mondays are 5-8 yr olds and Wednesdays are 9 and up. These age requirements are flexible and a bit of an experiment to see if there is interest in different age groups in our community. If one day works better than the other for your child please reach out and let me know and we can make it work!

For this series we will focus on fundamental skills in drawing, painting, and sculpture. Each week we will begin with drawing exercises to develop the building blocks of visual perception and organization. We will then progress into multimedia projects where the students will develop their own creative voice and freedom.

To receive more information and to register and reserve your child’s spot please email Reeva Wortel tigrereeva@gmail.com
or call/text (503) 816-1724

A bio about my background as an artist and a teacher:
Reeva Wortel is a contemporary artist, social worker, and teaching artist. Through portraiture, immersive installations, dance-theater, and multi-year community based art projects and murals, she has spent over 20 years exploring the depths of human complexity by utilizing her art, teaching, and social work to re-imagine the communities we live in toward a more just and equitable world.
In her experience as an arts educator Reeva Wortel has witnessed how the arts promote positive development in the academic, social, and emotional realms for all students. Wortel believes that when children engage in art projects they’re taught to tap into their innovative side, to think creatively, and out of the box and that this process inspires children, supporting them in all aspects of their lives.

Don’t worry About Your Fur Babies!!!

Our Fur Babies Welfare While Away!

I want to give a huge shout out to Manzanita’s legendary ‘dog whisperer’ Ginger Matyas.
We have used her services several times while away from home & we all know the stress of leaving them behind. Ginger not only took excellent care while visiting our 3 cats several times a day to feed, empty litter boxes but the play time was unique. She brought in crepe paper, sprinkled with catnip, lots of kitty toys & actively played & stimulated them. The follow up videos she sent to us were awesome as one of our cats whom is antisocial to begin with, was chasing around through the scattered papers, jumping in the air after flying feathers & sitting on her lap. Such a welcoming site when so far away from home. Everything was cleaned & vacuumed before our return as if nothing had taken place. She did ask first if this was ok! They were very happy babies during our absence!
Equally our dogs were also taken care of by Ginger over the holidays & it’s not about just walking them that amazed us with her services, she actively engages them in physical play time, fun exercise & healthy treats.
Ginger has massive compassion & knowledge in this industry so don’t miss out on asking her about any concerns, she has you covered!
I also just added her as an additional service to our Airbnb rental & it has had tremendous support from visiting guests! Thank you Ginger for all you do for our pets in our small community. Grateful

Plastic Recycling Project Paused

Friends of NCRD pauses plastic recycling project

Friends of NCRD (North County Recreation District) regrets that we must stop our plastic recycling project until we can recruit more volunteers to bag, weigh, and deliver the plastic to Fred Meyer’s in Tillamook.
Meanwhile, you may not be aware that all Fred Meyer’s and Safeway stores have collection bins for soft film plastic so you will be able to take your small bag of bags there when you shop.
Friends of NCRD started this project in cooperation with the Trex Company several years ago. For each 500 pounds of soft film plastic collected and delivered for recycling, the company provided us, as a non-profit organization, an outdoor bench. To date, we have received and installed 4 benches a at NCRD and we have also earned a fifth bench not yet ordered. Thanks to all who have participated!
If you are interested in helping maintain the plastic recycling project, please contact Gail Young, Friends of NCRD board Secretary. gailmyoung@mac.com
