Hoffman Gallery Show August 2022
August 4-28 | 1:00-5:00pm
Thursdays through Sundays
Hoffman Center for the Arts | 594 Laneda Avenue | Manzanita
Featuring the works of ALXSw,
George Wilson, and Kopali Serna

Artists’ statement: ALXSw –

“Studying martial arts introduced me to Shodo and Zen traditional works. I’ve been deeply impacted by studying the use of empty space in the works of Zen Reishis. Additionally, the placement of an artist’s chops (the red seals) are the final balancer of a composition. Like most 2D arts the first works of a student of Shodo (the art of the brush) are precise, structured, predictable as identifiable kanji or phrases, as with realism in western painting; the orange in a bowl is predictably recognizable. There is no strain or inquiry required to extract any particular meaning.”

Artists’ statement” George Wilson –

“I paint watercolors, soaking the paper, sometimes on both sides and applying washes of color and tone wet on wet to create atmosphere and form. As the paper dries I add detail and structure using sketchbook and memory as source material. I like to paint the shapes of birds and sea stacks; the vertical staccato of old river pilings, the wake of ducks on the river.”

Artists’ statement: Kopali Serna –

“This series explores the story of a hearth that lay frozen for generations but has undergone a time of thawing and regeneration. I conceptualized the series from my perspective as a self-taught indigenous artist, at one point separated from my traditions through the impact of colonization, but now intuitively and joyfully rejoined.”

The gallery is free and open to the public.

INDIVIDUAL ARTIST GRANT

The Cannon Beach Arts Association offers an Individual Artist Grant for original work each year. The grant amount is $2,000 for 2022 – 2023 and may be awarded in part or in total to those who qualify.*

PURPOSE
The Artist Grant is intended to promote the work of local artists and to provide support necessary to expand their creative process. It is also the intent to encourage a wider art audience and quality art experiences within the community. The artist must provide a return to the community, by means of temporary exhibit, performance, community education, publication, or other means as specified in the proposal.

WHO MAY APPLY
The Artist Grant is open to visual artists, writers, performers, and musicians showing serious intent and working to produce original material. Artists must reside in Clatsop or Tillamook county.

PROCESS
The Artist Grant will be awarded on the basis of the grant proposal; the Cannon Beach Arts Association Grant Committee will review the proposals against the Evaluation Criteria. The CBAA will notify applicants of their decision by mail within 45 days of the application deadline. Once awarded, the grant recipient must enter into a contract with the CBAA and commit to a project deadline. Grant funds will be dispersed in two parts. The first disbursement, equal to half of the total grant award, will be made within 30 days of the grant award notification. The second disbursement, equal to the remaining of the total grant award, will occur approximately halfway through the project, following a mid-term progress review with a representative from the CBAA showing sufficient progress towards completing the project as defined in the proposal.

EVALUATION CRITERIA
· Quality of the project as described by the applicant.

· The project is for new work or work in progress (projects already completed do not qualify).

· The project must be designed to be completed and presented within 12 months from the award date.

· Community interest in and benefit from the proposal.

· History of sound professional management by the applicant.

HOW TO APPLY
· Complete the Individual Artist Grant application.

FACTS ABOUT

Posted on by North Coast BBQ

Submitted By: daslunas@icloud.com – Click to email about this post
Reply to Mr and / or Ms. Anonymous – Citizens for common sense…

Have to say though ….”common sense and anonymous – feels like an oxymoron!

As the only Mayoral candidate, so far, for Manzanita City, I have to assume this post was intended for me. Please, come out, come out where ever you are and listen to your fiction hit the fact.

The corporation I think you listed (the cloudy copy was impossible to decipher) was formed by a holding company prior to acquiring an Oregon company in bankruptcy. The corporation was designed to merge the ailing firm with another like entity. The proposed merger was presented to the holding company by my husband and his business associate. The holding company had the funds and corporation established, so they hired my husband and associate to execute the turn around. During the initial months of the newly-formed corporation, as it migrated towards positive cash flows, the holding company faulted on its pledge for financing. At that juncture, my husband and now business partner, put up the necessary funds and completed the first task of establishing a profit.

The new entity represented hundreds of employees, made the repayment of several million dollars in vendor debt and today, represents a thriving business operating in two northwest states.

My husband and partner inherited the corporation when selling the company operations (brand assets) into another existing operating entity.

My entry on the records of the corporation as Secretary occurred in 2013 when my husband’s business partner and friend died at the age of 65.

The structuring of a corporation, including where established, is between the individuals starting the corporation, an attorney and accountants. Many corporations favor states such as Delaware, Nevada or Wyoming for a variety of reasons. Management usually prefers states such as Nevada for reporting purpose where it is far easier. Stockholders prefer Delaware in many cases. All these reasons can be found on Google.

Our accountant for over 35 years, said the following:
“The company in question operated a business in Oregon and reported all activity on the Oregon business return as required.

As required, this company registered with the Oregon Secretary of State. Using the Nevada Corporation for the initial corporate documents, it does not change or reduce Oregon taxes.”

As business owners, we not only paid Oregon personal taxes, but Oregon business taxes as well (payroll and other business taxes).

As Oregon residents, we are taxed in Oregon on our income. We have a CPA that files our taxes according to the tax laws, and we have always paid our taxes as required.

My husband and I are proud to have been business owners who contributed to the Oregon economy for many years. Our endeavors helped hundreds of employees, and related vendors.

Starting a company is incredibly difficult, time-consuming and financially draining – ask any business owner. Their road is neither easy nor consistent. Many challenges ahead.
They need our support.

It is time, though, to raise the communication bar in our community. Hopefully, Manzanita’s culture will not allow itself to be defined by anonymous accusations bearing mere portions of the truth.

Eleanor Roosevelt said on defining a culture:

Great minds discuss ideas,
Average minds discuss events;
Small minds discuss people.

What I hear Eleanor saying… is raise the bar.

All of us can go from the small mind to the great mind and to participate with objectivity. We need to move up the community bar so our exchanges deal in fact and not fiction.

My name is Deb Simmons, and I am a candidate for mayor.

Submitted By: pattyrinehart@nehalemtel.net – Click to email about this post
Yes, since you asked, Friends delivers flowers. That is Friends of North County Recreation District will deliver flowers in the local area – you pay for the flowers and we deliver for free!
Friends has a flower bouquet booth in Downtown Manzanita next to the Little Apple. Fresh flowers are delivered to this booth daily. Our goal is to get them there by 9 AM, but you must remember we have artists doing the arranging and we might be a few minutes late. Dahlia’s are now in their prime, so expect lots of those. You ask also, what does a bouquet cost? $5, 10, $15, and up depending on what you want. We have those three price points available 7 days a week and if you want something more expensive we can do that too. Don’t forget the Magical, Manzanita, $5 Monday where most, if not all bouquets are $5. You need to hurry if you want one on Monday as they go quickly. If you get to our booth in Manzanita, take a few minutes to look at the sign which shows our Fall planted, spring blooming bulbs-plus both amaryllis and paperwhites. Price sheets are attached to the reader board. Don’t want flowers, but want to support Friends, send checks to Friends of NCRD, PO Box 511, Nehalem, Or. 97131. We’ve already raised over $2,500 to support programs and projects, but we need to raise twice that amount . We do appreciate your help-especially helping the youth in our community. Many Many Thanks!
