Submitted By: lufkinali@hotmail.com – Click to email about this post
St Catherine’s is delighted to welcome the Rt. Rev. Diana Akiyama, bishop of Western Oregon, this Sunday, September 25th, at 10am.
Bishop Akiyama was born in Wheeler, Oregon, grew up in a Japanese-American community in Hood River, and was the first Japanese-American woman ordained to the priesthood in The Episcopal Church in 1989 by the Rt. Rev. Rustin Kimsey, Diocese of Eastern Oregon.
She holds a Ph.D. in Religion and Social Ethics from the University of Southern California (2001), a M.Div. from Church Divinity School of the Pacific, Berkeley (1988), and a B.S. from the University of Oregon (1981).
Before returning to Oregon to serve as our 11th bishop, she served as the Vicar at St. Augustine’s Episcopal Church in Kapaau, Hawai’i and as Dean at Waiolaihui’ia School of Formation for the Episcopal Diocese of Hawai’i.
All are welcome to this event, which will be followed by a simple, ‘finger-foods’ potluck.

Hoffman Center for the Arts presents Printmaking Workshop

Submitted By: toni@rbogen.com – Click to email about this post
Visual Arts Workshop
Printmaking Workshop with Ben Rosenberg
October 27-29 | 10:00am-4:00pm
Tuition $240 | Materials fee $25
Hoffman Center | 594 Laneda Avenue | Manzanita
This class requires proof of vaccination

Join Ben Rosenberg as he introduces the principles and practices of creating monoprints and monotypes. Monotype is a distinctive print made by pressing paper against a painted or inked surface. When creating a monotype, it cannot be replicated again. It is a highly individual creation, much like painting, as it allows for spontaneity, “happy accidents,” and working along a plate surface to bring a wide range of marks that can be obtained through the creation of an image.

Topics include basic theory and use of color and composition in working with water-based, mixed media, and a variety of surfaces. This workshop will involve both conceptual approaches and direct observations using still life, the figure, abstract composition, and a variety of student investigative resources.

You will explore various monotype styles, techniques, and media used with rollers, stencils, textured surfaces, brushes, and various inventive wiping tools to create unusual one-of-a-kind prints.

Through lectures, demonstrations, discussions, and printing time, participants will develop a command of the technical aspects of monotypes and monoprints (color mixing, paint application, materials), and the properties of creating an image (line and shape, color concept, composition, abstraction) and an understanding of how formal choices create meaning.

Each day will begin with a lecture and discussion, followed by an afternoon for studio time. This class is a place where you can engage your own artistic interest and explore your personal voice.

Indigo Dreams Spa Day September 24th

Create the world you want to live in.

That’s been my motto this year.

If you don’t like what you see out there then create what you do want and share it with your friends.

If enough of us keep creating eventually we will move the needle towards more love, peace and healing in this community we’re a part of.

So to celebrate the upcoming Fall Equinox I called up three of my favorite creative women. Each of them dedicated to making the world more beautiful through their art, magic and music.

Together we’re hosting a welcome back for the rains and the salmon, to long nights and cozy tea times, with an event honoring the power of our dreams.

I hope you can join us!

In the middle we will swirl tea and snacks and a steam in our riverfront wood fired sauna for deep relaxation.

End your day with a riverside concert by magical singer/songwriter Heather Christie who has her own way of playing with the blues.
Her guitar and amazing voice will rock you right into dreamland.

20 people have already registered. Sign up Now to make this a crowd that can’t be missed. The more folks we have, the more miles we can clean!
We will be meeting at 9:00am at the Tillamook County Boat Launch at Tideland Road on Saturday, September 17th. Details are listed on the SOLVE website where you can register to help.

Heart of Cartm is leading a litter cleanup along the Nehalem River and Nehalem Bay. We chose this area for a litter clean up because any roadside litter (accidental and intentional) immediately blows into the water where it becomes more costly to remove and a greater hazard to wildlife. Keeping this area clean is CRITICAL to the health of our beautiful ecosystem.

Whether you travel this scenic route every day for work or you are dreaming of coming here on your next road trip with the family camper, its up to each of us to keep it healthy. Walking this route is THE BEST way to savor the beauty, so let’s walk it together while cleaning!

Thank you to the Community Partners making the Beach and Riverside Cleanup event an annual Fall family tradition across Oregon:
SOLVE
Oregon Lottery
And, the Local Partners who are supporting Heart of Cartm for this cleanup:

Lo Steele – Free Concert in the Park in Cannon Beach, Sept 25

Submitted By: tolovanaartscolony@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
Soul, Jazz and R&B artist Lo Steele Performs Free Concert in the Park, Sept 25 in Cannon Beach
A multifaceted performer whose palette includes acting, poetry and music, Lo Steele brings her soul, jazz and R&B influenced band to Cannon Beach for a free concert in the park on Sunday, September 25th.
As the daughter of “Portland’s first lady of the blues” LaRhonda Steele, Lo grew up on and around stages. But, according to the Willamette Week, Lo is “a force to be reckoned with on her own.”

“Radiating a spirit of continual growth and community, her songs offer affirmations through self-reflection and a relatable humor, coupled with her vocal command and understated soul-jazz melodies,” the WW continues, adding that Lo’s “healing-through-boogie” music “shouldn’t be slept on.”

In addition to Steele’s performance, members of the Tolovana Arts Colony will be displaying some of their artwork as a fundraising effort.

The free, family friendly event, in Cannon Beach’s downtown city park, begins at 5:00PM. Attendees are encouraged to bring blankets, low-backed chairs and fully stocked picnic baskets. Dogs, Frisbees, soccer balls and the like are welcome too.

The park is located in downtown Cannon Beach, northeast of the Chamber of Commerce at 2nd & Spruce.

The concert is produced by the Tolovana Arts Colony and made possible by a Community Grant from the City of Cannon Beach.

For more information, visit tolovanaartscolony.org, email tolovanaartscolony@gmail.com, or call 541-215-4445.

An invitation to a unique conversation

Submitted By: constance@nehalemtel.net – Click to email about this post
“Understanding Urban/Rural Divides” is the topic for a free public discussion to be held Tuesday, September 20 at 7:00 p.m. at Tillamook Bay Community College, Room 214/215.
This conversation is presented by Oregon Humanities. Local sponsors are Tillamook County Pioneer and Tillamook County Democratic Central Committee (TCDCC). Nick Nash, a teacher of philosophy at Blue Mountain Community College in Pendleton, is the conversation moderator.

The conversation will focus on questions such as:
What is the urban/rural divide, and how do we understand it? / How does the urban/rural divide affect the ways we relate to each other as Oregonians? / How does this divide affect our day-to-day lives and our experiences of being governed?

We live in a time of increasing polarization that often correlates to divides between urban and rural regions in our state. Polarization is so extreme that it often seems like the two sides may have completely different experiences of the world. This conversation is a chance to reflect on the beliefs we have about our urban or rural neighbors with a focus on discovering and abandoning misbeliefs, investigating and learning about the real differences between the urban and the rural, and trying to find things that we all share as Oregonians. The conversation is an opportunity to listen to, share with, and learn from each other.

An RSVP is welcomed and not required for attendance. RSVP to goverancechair@tillcodems.org
