See you in Ilwaco Friday evening!

“POW” by Jean Nitzel – 2017
I think that I can actually count on one hand the number of times our Oysterville Friday Night Gathering has been cancelled — with the exception of the Covid Days, of course. This coming Friday — day after tomorrow counts as one of those few!
I’ve cancelled in deference to the Artists’ Reception at the Columbia Heritage Museum being held that evening from 4 to 7 p.m. And, at least two of our “regular” Friday Nighters — Jean Nitzel and Tucker Wachsmuth — will have works on exhibit! Yay!!
The theme of this year’s Benefit Art Auction is “The Hidden World of Pacific Northwest’s Forests and Gardens” — a motif of mind-boggling possibilities! Over 60 works will be on display at the Museum’s main gallery for three weeks — October 21st through November 12. During that time, bids can be placed in-person at the museum, or online by going to fundraiser.bid/cphm. A link to the auction website can also be found on the front page of the CPHM website.

“Think Small” by Noel Thomas – 2017
For those who would like first pick of any artwork in the auction, raffle tickets will be on sale at the Museum until the 4 pm opening on October 21st. Only 50 raffle tickets will be sold ($20 per ticket) and the winner can choose any artwork before the auction starts.
Meet the artists! Enjoy the refreshmets! Bid on your favorite artworks! All this and more from 4 to 7 at the Columbia Pacific Heritage Museum! See you there!
