BendFilm Honors Debra Granik & Anne Rosellini, Announces 2018 Film Lineup Granik and Rosellini Awarded Inaugural (indie) Women of the Year Award & 4 Film Retrospective
D
uring the 15th annual BendFilm Festival, BendFilm will screen Leave No Trace and Winter’s Bone back-to-back on opening night with an on-stage discussion and award presentation. They announced plans to celebrate the directing, writing and producing team Debra Granik and Anne Rosellini for their 15-year, four-feature filmmaking partnership, independent vision and invaluable contributions to the film community. Celebrations will include an award presentation plus a retrospective screening of all four of their feature films, each followed by a moderated Q&A with the filmmakers. Leave No Trace (filmed in Oregon in 2017) and Winter’s Bone will play back-toback on opening night followed by Down To the Bone and Stray Dog later in the Festival. Debra and Anne have won more than 43 awards over their illustrious careers

and been nominated for more than 53 awards including Oscar consideration for Best Writing for an Adapted Screenplay for Winter’s Bone in 2011. They have been lauded for discovering mainstay actors like Jennifer Lawrence, exhibiting extreme sincerity in their stories, fearlessly depicting the lives of everyday Americans and a “willingness to follow inspiration anywhere.” Todd Looby, director of BendFilm, said, “Debra Granik and Anne Rosellini are the perfect recipients for this inaugural (indie) Women of the Year award. They have launched careers and told stories about the marginalized and forgotten among us, inspiring audiences to feel deeper and take care of each other. Their work shows an undeniable belief in community. The award is named for Pamela Hulse Andrews, a longtime Bend business leader, arts supporter and force of nature who inspired women to achieve, jump-started
COVER STORY the careers of many writers and creatives and had a strong belief in the power of community. Debra and Anne’s work is indicative of the exact things that Pamela and BendFilm have tried to emulate: strengthening the community and the importance of recognizing and celebrating our shared humanity.” Director Debra Granik and Producer Anne Rosellini said, “We work outside the industry as an independent filmmaking team along with our longtime colleagues, DP Michael McDonough and editor Victoria Stewart. We work to find material that inspires us and speaks to the human condition and everyday survival. We strive to make fiscally responsible films that allow us to maintain creative control and that do not require mass market budgets to reach an audience.” About the (indie) Women of the Year Award: BendFilm created the (indie) Women of the Year award in honor of the late Pamela Hulse Andrews who was a pioneer in the Bend art scene. Pamela was a passionate arts advocate who worked tirelessly to support women in film. For many years, Pamela organized the Independent Women for Independent Film group that raised money for several BendFilm awards and helped BendFilm survive the economic downturn in the late 2000’s. BendFilm will carry on Pamela’s memory through this award, presenting it to female artists who demonstrate an exceptional passion for independent film, bravely shares her authentic voice and makes extraordinary contributions to the independent body of work. The four films screening in the Debra Granik and Anne Rosellini retrospective are: Leave No Trace (2018), Stray Dog (2014), Winter’s Bone (2010) and Down to the Bone (2004). Festival’s Feature Film Lineup Running October 11-14 at iconic locations around Bend including the historic Tower Theatre, Tin Pan Alley Theater and McMenamins-Old St. Francis, Cascades Theatrical Company, the Volcanic Theatre Pub and the Regal at the Old Mill District, the 2018 BendFilm Festival will present 44 feature films and award over $10,500 in prizes directly to independent filmmakers. BendFilm created two new film categories to recognize impactful environmental or outdoor focused stories and Native American cinema. Both categories will offer a cash award. Additionally, BendFilm launched BendFilm Underground which showcases bold, edgy or music-focused films to screen at the very fun and eclectic Volcanic Theater Pub. A new pass will be created for this film track and is available for purchase now. “15 years ago BendFilm was born out of a need to bring the community together to share in the impact of original storytelling and to celebrate the art of independent film here in Central Oregon,” said Looby. “Through new grant programs, a new Native American spotlight, new awards for filmmakers and more community programs, we renew our dedication to drawing audiences together to share in the power of film to open up dialogue and make connections.” In celebration of BendFilm’s 15th anniversary, audiences can look forward to a range of other programs and entertainment including music, virtual reality, interactive movie experiences, spontaneous performances, street theater and panel discussions to be announced in the coming weeks. The Festival slotting schedule is set to go up online soon and will be posted on www.BendFilm.org. “This year’s program transports audiences all around the world and through humor, drama and innovation provides a means to walk in someone else’s shoes. This program will challenge the way we relate to our environment, ourselves and each other,” said BendFilm Festival Programmer Erik Jambor.

FIRST FRIDAY IN BEND
CASCADE
october 5 Alleda Real Estate 25 NW Minnesota Ave., Ste. 1 alledarealestate.com Alleda Real Estate will have two photographers showing their work from 5:30-8:30pm, October 5. Dave Kamperman: "At its core, my passion for landscape photography stems from a deep desire to represent any subject in the most attractive and accurate way possible. I believe that it is very hard to improve on the designs the creator has formulated. In addition, I believe these designs deserve to be preserved for future generations to enjoy and study. The power of a photo is in reflecting the truest nature of its subject. My greatest privilege is to capture that precise moment that simply does not need to be enhanced." Joel Bailie’s interest in photography was sparked in the early 1980s by the works of Ansel Adams and other well known landscape photographers that followed him. Joel has always enjoyed photographing landscapes, and has recently found a special interest in studio lighting, which he often shoots in black and white. A few of his favorite subjects are sunsets, flowing water and flowers. Joel is a member of the Cascade Camera Club and has previously shown works at City Walls sponsored by the City of Bend, the Family Resource Center as well as First Friday events. Art in the Atrium Franklin Crossing 550 NW Franklin St. Art in the Atrium, Franklin Crossing, presents Barbara Slater’s paintings in oil and acrylic entitled Floral, Feathers and Fur from October 2-28.

Dan uses the “lost wax” method in casting in combination with a method that uses a fine ceramic shell to ensure the finest detail. He does his own patinas applying various chemicals to give the pieces the desired color and texture. In the early 90’s Dawn Emerson was introduced to pastels and quickly became known for her calligraphic use of color, and for the way she captured the movement, energy and spirit of the wild horses and other western animals she painted.

be serving light refreshments and wine so come join us for some fun. Sandy Ostrau likes to take scenes of everyday life and reduce them to their fundamental elements. At a certain point, specific content is not that important or even relevant. This sense of ambiguity allows for a range of interpretations.

Some of his landscapes are recognizable while others only hint at their origins with a swirl of abstract color and light. Donald Yatomi is an oil painter best known for his contemporary urban themes.

Grand Opening by Barbara Slater
Art in the Atrium
A
rt in the Atrium, Franklin Crossing, presents Barbara Slater’s paintings in oil and acrylic entitled Floral, Feathers and Fur from October 2-28. The artist will attend the First Friday, October 5, 5-8pm public opening. Barbara Slater, a painter for over forty years, reveals in her love of and respect for animals, her delightful sense of humor and her considerable talent for drawing and painting in her current Franklin Crossing exhibition. As the title suggests, the show presents florals, birds and animals with fur. The artist’s florals, such as her double ruffled iris with its upright stature and brilliant red color, suggests a sense of majesty. The birds, her barnyard roosters with their focused eyes and sharp beaks, depict not only beauty but a presence of somber authority. The artist’s fur creatures, such as her brown bear that traditionally appears ferocious, licks its lips and appears content following a feast of honey!
The artist notes, “I paint what I love, striving to paint passionate paintings… not just workable paintings. I have a heart-felt connection to my work.” Her life-like images portray not only warmth and admiration, but her considerable ability as well. Recognized throughout the western U.S., the prestigious Richard Schmid Art Auction, acknowledging her painting excellence, juried her into four successive exhibitions, and the auctioneer elevated her art to the live auction. Slater is a juried member of the Oil Painters of America, the California Art Club and locally in Bend, the High Desert Art League. During First Friday, Noi Thai serves wine and appetizers. The Tommy Leroy Quartet presents favorites of the local music scene: Tom Freedman (bass), Scott Johnson (guitar), Brooke Barnett (trumpet), and Matthew Williams (drums).

The Many Uses of Ceramics by JANET MATSON

Photo courtesy of Wildfire Pottery
he world of ceramics is surprisingly varied. We live with many ceramic items every day and don’t realize it. Our homes are equipped with porcelain sinks and toilets and decorated with flower vases. We eat off of ceramic dishes and drink out of fired clay mugs. Ceramics are used for cookware, bricks, tiles and roofs. Electrical insulators are made out of ceramics. Even our computers and electronic devises have ceramic components. Cars, artificial bones and teeth, and NASA space shuttles all use ceramic parts. Ceramic pieces are made from mixtures of clay, earthen elements, powders and water and are shaped into the desired forms. They are then fired in a high temperature oven known as a kiln. Often ceramics are covered in decorative, waterproof, paint-like substances known as glazes. At the Wildfire Ceramic Showcase, Central Oregon clay artists will be displaying a wide variety of ceramic pieces also. There will be mugs in many shapes and sizes, drinking vessels, plates,
platters, casseroles, vases, candle holders and bowls of every size. You will find Christmas ornaments and jewelry. Raku pots that are highly decorated will be part of the show. Ceramic sculptures large and small, and wall art will be available to decorate your home. Wildfire Ceramic Showcase will be on Saturday and Sunday, November 3 and 4 at Highland Elementary School (701 NW Newport Ave.) from 10am-5pm on Saturday and 10am-4pm on Sunday. Everything at the 2018 Wildfire Ceramic Showcase is made of clay and is waiting for you to discover!

Painting is All About Light by BARBARA SLATER
M
y Grandfather had a farm outside of Ogden, Utah and I spent a lot of time with him there and got to know a lot about animals. I felt as a child that I could really communicate with animals. I started drawing when I was three or four years old, using crayons and colored pencils. Later when I was ten years old my parents enrolled me in a correspondence-by-mail course. When I paint I want to love what I’m doing. So now, when I paint animals I concentrate on the lights in their eyes to express their personality. The eyes are the mirror of the soul and can be painted to show gentleness and the look of being approachable - two things that appeal to people. Observers’ eyes go to light and soft areas that invite them in, whereas dark areas stop the eye. Whatever the subject might be, the viewer is drawn into the painting by the light source. Every good painting has a sweet spot where the light plays a part in making the focal point. Find someone whose work you like and learn from them - ask questions, get them to critique your work, take art courses from artists you admire. You have to learn the fundamentals of painting to become good at it, then you follow your bliss and try not to be too hard on yourself. When I do a painting I like to do portraits of whatever the subject matter is - I like the closeup. It seems intimate and personal to me. It is my bliss. When looking to buy a piece of art, make sure that you love it and that it strikes a chord within you Barbara Slater with her painting "Range Manager" either of a memory of feelings or of an experience. It should feel like you belong to each other. Then you will never tire of it and will enjoy it for years to come. Select the painting that most resonates with your being. When you do so that art will transform the space where you hang it, uplifting your spirit on a daily basis, often in surprising ways. Barbara Slater is the featured artist with an exhibit of her paintings at Black Butte Resort during October and November 2018. 14 October 2018 | www.CascadeAE.com

oin guild members and fiber enthusiasts at the third annual Central Oregon Spinners & Weavers Guild Holiday Show & Sale on Saturday, November 3 from 10am-4pm at the Environmental Center in downtown Bend, 16 NW Kansas St. This year’s show and sale will feature boutique displays of guild members’ handwoven artistry including: table runners, towels, wall hangings, shawls, scarves and other wearables; handspun yarns; felted items including hats and bowls; hand dyed silk scarves; lavender; turned wood bowls and pins; and many holiday décor and gift items. Currently the Guild has 100 members from all around the Central Oregon region. The Guild was started by Dee Ford Potter in the fall of 1971, gathering about ten women who were interested in weaving together in private homes until the meetings became too large and they started meeting at the Deschutes Historical Museum. Moving around town over the years to different meeting venues, the Guild now is centrally located Photos courtesy of CO Spinners & Weavers for their main meeting on the third Wednesday of each month from 9:30am-noon at the Highland Baptist st Church on W 31 and Hwy. 126 in Redmond. Several years ago, the Guild also started a Saturday meeting for those that were not able to attend mid-week gatherings. This meeting is held the fourth Saturday of the month in Sisters at the City Hall council meeting room from 1-4pm. The Guild has a diverse membership of weavers, spinners, dyers, felters and some members who raise animals for their fiber: sheep, goats, alpaca and rabbits. All fiber enthusiasts are welcome to attend the monthly meetings held January through November. Membership dues are $25 annually. The Guild website has the most current information on meetings and events at weave-spin-centraloregon.org. Look there for any changes to meeting locations or dates and to see the program topics. Workshops are held during the year featuring local and nationally known instructors in weaving, spinning, and dyeing for our members’ educational enrichment and group fun. We hope you will join us at the annual Show & Sale on November 3.

Local Artist Creates Immersive Travel Experiences
L
ocal Bend artist, Sarah B. Hansen has discovered art and travel go hand in hand through immersive travel experiences. She calls these experiences Art Adventures. A little beyond traveling to locations and snapping photos, she creates adventures in which travelers will be able to slow down, absorb the culture, invest in experiences and learn to paint their surroundings. Her current Art Adventure immersive travel retreat is to the peaceful country of Costa Rica. Unabashedly Eco-Tourist, army-free and friendly, the Ticos of Costa Rica are overwhelmingly welcoming and willing to share their culture, foods and beautiful landscape. The Art Adventure tour to Costa Rica in February of 2019 will be taking place in a yoga retreat near the beautiful Central Pacific Coastline surfing town of Jaco. Yoga and art combine seamlessly, creating a rich environment for centering the soul and returning to peace. Each day, students will learn
watercolor techniques, practice yoga from a local yoga instructor, dine on organically prepared meals and discover Costa Rican culture. Additional tours will be available to nearby zip lines, birdwatching and forest hiking, beach walking, surfing and mountain bike riding. Sarah recently visited the retreat, refining her lessons and visiting with the locals. She keeps a blog of her travels and art adventures, posting every day, in order to share her experiences with her viewers. Her blog and posts on her trip can be found at sbhansenart.com. In addition to her Costa Rican Art Adventure retreat, Sarah teams up with Gina from Gina’s Italy, and teaches lessons while touring in Italy every year. Their fourth Italian tour will be in 2019. Sarah is currently investigating locations regionally and abroad for future tours. Openings are available for both tours. If interested in either tour or future tour locations contact Sarah at sarah@sarahbhansen.com or visit sarahbhansen.com

The Heart of a Weaver
S
tephanie Stanley started weaving 30 years ago when she was inspired by a neighbor’s loom in San Luis Obispo, California. "Textiles are part of my heritage. Both my grandmothers were skilled in a broad range of textile and fiber arts. My grandfather taught how to make and engineer spinning wheels at a technical college." Fascinated by cloth since childhood, Stanley pursued many fiber techniques until she sat at a loom and threw a shuttle. “I felt like I finally found where I belong.” The fact that she was working 50 hours a week as an attorney was only a slight deterrent. Her spare time was quickly taken up with weaving and when she couldn’t weave she read everything she could about weaving, color and design. Twenty years ago Stanley made her way to Central Oregon. “Moving to Bend gave me the opportunity to focus on weaving full time. My house quickly filled up with looms and yarn. My husband is very understanding.” Early in her weaving career she made the decision to focus on wearable pieces and occasional select pieces for the home. Yards and yards of yarn is wound on her looms to create scarves, shawls, ponchos and garments. She was thrilled that one of her jackets was juried in to a fashion show for a international weaving convention in Reno Nevada this summer. “Garments are the most exciting pieces for me to design and the most frustrating. It takes me several months to make a jacket.” Weaving for Stanley is a metaphor for life. It has been an exciting adventure of meeting and making interesting friends and inspiring a lifelong habit of researching and learning. After trying a variety of venues including wholesale sales to retail stores, galleries and art shows Stanley’s work found a home at the Red Chair Gallery in Bend where she is a focus artist for the month of October. She participates in a few art shows a year including with the Central Oregon Spinners and Weavers Guild.

Art at the Oxford
T
he Oxford Hotel presents Joanne Donaca’s oil paintings of Oregon landscapes through October 26. A native Oregonian and noted Central Oregon artist, Joanne Donaca recalls the influence of women in her family on her fascination with art. Her paternal grandmother, an expert in embroidery and crochet, began painting in her elder years. As a young child in second grade in Ontario, Donaca observed her grandmother applying craft paint from dispensers (later adding brushes) to create landscapes reminiscent of the “folk art” of Grandma Moses. Her mother, innately talented, was similarly attracted to art although more to fine craft. Becoming an expert seamstress and making her own patterns, she used these or altered other patterns to create garments for clients. Donaca, having learned embroidery from her grandmother and sewing skills from assisting her mother, made her first skirt complete with an embroidered pocket at age nine. From her freshman through junior high school years, she studied painting with an inspirational and thorough teacher, Roger Ashby. He instructed students in the basics of art: shapes, light and
Old Mill District Sunflowers
shadow, and color theory; mediums of pastel, pen and ink, watercolor, acrylic, oil and others; and predominant styles beginning with calligraphy and advancing to principally figurative, realistic and impressionistic forms. Donaca excelled in all and furthered her love of art. Early in her senior year, upon the sudden and saddening death of her mother, she, her father and two young adult sisters moved to Bend. Completing her senior year in Bend, she was awarded Salutatorian of her class given her outstanding scholarship in both Ontario and Bend. She continued her education at Central Oregon Community College with a major in business and economics. Upon graduation, she began working in business and met her future husband, Richard Donaca. Although she continued painting, her marriage and three children consumed considerable
time. In the mid-90’s, following the graduation of her youngest son from college, she resumed her painting in earnest. Now a recognized and respected artist, her art has been shown throughout the Northwest with exhibits in Seattle, Lawrence Gallery near Portland, Madras, Redmond, Pendleton, Boise, Sun Valley and other locations. She has studied with wellknown artistic instructors Delbert Gish, Kevin MacPherson, Jan Kunz and many others. Donaca is recognized in the Northwest through her signature membership in the Watercolor Society of America, the Pastel Society of America, the Northwest, and of Oregon, as well as her membership in the Oil Painters of America. An award winner in several mediums, her paintings appear in numerous corporate and private collections including Scottish physicians, Pronghorn’s Golf Resort and Sunriver Resort where she was previously honored as the poster artist for the Sunriver Music Festival. Donaca also received the honor of poster artist for the Cascade Cycling Classic, ’94. Billye Turner, art consultant, coordinates the hotel's exhibition schedule.

This Is Art Viewer Participation is Required by IAN O’SULLIVAN for Cascade A&E
I
always know when I am looking at something my eye doesn’t quite understand — and for me, that’s when art gets exciting. When I first glimpsed the work of Kenneth Marunowski my initial impression was: this is either total s*** — or it’s totally brilliant.
Fall Fury
It took me about five minutes to figure out it was more of the latter (his collection of oil paints and Ph.D. in literacy and rhetoric studies were small hints) — but within about 30 minutes my vision found its focus and I began to unlock the visual magic for myself. Ironicly I would later learn that Kenneth had the same gut response upon seeing the work of Cy Twombly— a modern American master, who has become one of Kenneth’s current main sources of inspiration and influence. Kenneth was first introduced to art through a brother-in-law who drew with him as a kid and during visits to the Cleveland Museum of Art in his hometown. Classically trained, Kenneth received his BFA from Kent State University and later his Ph.D. in literacy and rhetoric studies. Ken spent his junior year abroad at the Marchutz School of Fine Art in Aix-en-Provence, France studying painting and French, and visiting Europe’s top musuems. After a ten year stint as an assistant professor of writing studies, Ken could no longer ignore his artistic calling and left the university to practice painting full time. In the summer of 2016, Ken was awarded an artist fellowship
18
to the Marchutz School where he assisted students painting in the plein air tradition and executed many paintings himself. That same summer, Ken showed several paintings in his first international exhibition featuring three artists at Le Porte Bleu, a gallery in St. Antonin, France. With the support of his wife Carly, Ken paints in the garage studio beneath their one-bedroom apartment in Bend, where the couple moved to from Minnesota three years ago. “I knew life as a painter wasn’t going to be easy. There are no guarantees: no steady income, no job security. It’s just me with my brushes, canvas and paints trying to make something beautiful happen.” Unlike most artists today who paint with synthetic polymer acrylics, Kenneth works entirely using oil paints following the style and traditions of the masters he studied in school.
Within You,Without You
On my first pass through the Kenneth’s studio I notice reflections and references to the grand masters I know best — the echos of Jackson Pollock, Cezanne and Kandinsky vibrating through the colors and lines. Kenneth disappears and comes back with his favorite book on the
October 2018 | www.CascadeAE.com
Dutch-American artist Willem de Kooning — the master of abstract expressionism and the pioneer of New York School — and now it all makes sense.
Poppy Paradise
Known for continually reworking his canvases, de Kooning was legendary for leaving his pieces with a sense of incompletion — as if the forms were still in the process of moving and settling and coming into definition. In a similiar fashion, Kenneth’s work conveys an almost awkward sense of beauty mixed with chaos — like paint still mixing and in motion— unsettled marks both flowing and frozen, and a dynamic movement that feel as intuitive as impulsive. It becomes visual game — and when you look deeply and patiently enough the figures and structures begin emerge — hidden in the details whispering and waiting to be noticed. After learning how to decipher his mark-making madness for myself, I had a chance to sit down with the artist to learn more about his process, inspirations and advice for young artists looking to get started. What was the most important thing you learned from art school? Upon returning to Kent State with all my newest work from France, I actually failed my Junior Review. I couldn’t believe it — in France the professors were telling me how gifted I am, and then when I returned to the U.S. all my same work was failed.
Once I started painting according to the American style the school espoused, I started to get all A’s. It was really confusing at the time — but I now realize how much I benefited from studying both American and European styles of painting — which has shaped my work to this day. What is your advice to younger people interested in getting into art? I recommend that students start by studying other artists — and at least one of masters — closely and in-depth. I am an avid reader of art criticism and often incorporate what I find inspiring in other artist’s work into my own without appearing too derivative. Can you describe your creative process? I create my work as I move through life, catching glimpses of content as I walk about town or in the mountains, or through reading about art or looking at the work of other artists. The creative process doesn’t stop as I exit the studio. Creativity is truly a way of life for me.
Wedding Reception
Can you explain your process? How is it different from other artists in your genre? My process is highly intuitive. It starts with one key decision — a starting point to explore. One day I might start with a color — purple, for example — and I will begin by exploring that color in relation to its opposite — yellow, for example. continued on next page >>>
Another piece I may begin making random charcoal marks and seeing what type of composition develops naturally. But as I organize the composition I like to allow the elements of chance and spontaneity to enter the process. It’s all about the conversation. I start and finish every work by asking the same question, “What do you want to become?” I ask. I listen. I respond with my marks. Then I step back. I wait. I listen. “What do you need?” I ask again. This is my process. I believe the gift of the painter,
especially in abstract art, is to be open and sensitive to this conversation which is really a conversation with yourself — the canvas serving as a mirror. When you step back from everything, what does it mean for you to call yourself an artist? Despite all the madness and beauty, the approval and disapproval, the success and failures, the sales and the struggles — I just keep on painting. I am confident in my abilities and intellect. If others don’t get it, that’s fine, but there are those who do, and because I see art as a life-sustaining force, I want to help open the world
of art to those who have yet to discover its magic. We need to support the arts, to teach the younger generation how to appreciate art and how to invest time in sustained looking — I am in this for the long term — both as a artist and an educator. Those interested in learning more about Kenneth’s art are welcome to schedule a private studio visit by calling him directly at 218-269-7882. Kenneth also offers private and group art classes on a personalized basis. kennethmarunowski.com @kenmarunowski

Curtis is an in-depth exhibition of photographs spanning a 30-year period, is now showing at the High Desert Museum. By Her Hand celebrates Indigenous artistic traditions that have existed for centuries and continue to thrive within American Indian communities today. Marking the 150th anniversary of Edward S. Curtis’s birth, the exhibition features Curtis’s photographs of Native women from the Christopher G. Cardozo Collection. From the High Desert Museum’s permanent collection, the exhibit includes historical and contemporary Photo courtesy of High Desert Museum pieces by female Native artists, giving greater historical context to Curtis’s work and showing the continuation of traditional artistic practices by artists today. The artwork of photographer Edward S. Curtis is striking, complex and controversial. His significance lies not only in the sheer volume of his work, but also the historical and cultural knowledge collected on the subject of Native American life. Over the decades, his sepia-toned prints of Native people have shaped the ways that many non-Native people think about American Indians and the American West. At the beginning of the 20th century with funds provided by J.P. Morgan, Curtis undertook the enormous project of documenting Native people from over 80 Tribes to record Native American culture amid rapid societal changes.

Pigeons Playing Ping Pong with Andy Frasco
P
arallel 44 Presents is beyond excited to welcome the funky jammy birds of Pigeons Playing Ping Pong with special guest Andy Frasco to The Domino Room on Thursday, October 11. Doors are at 8:30pm and the show is at 9pm. This show is 21+. Tickets are $15 in advance and $20 at the door. Pigeons Playing Ping Pong brings end-of-the-world enthusiasm to their high-energy psychedelic funk. Their infectious electro-funk grooves, undeniable live energy and contagious smiles have their rabid fan base “The Flock” growing exponentially. Based out of Baltimore, Maryland, this animated quartet has been scorching up the country with their explosive performances and danceable peaks… and they’re loving every minute of it. It’s a whimsically apt metaphor for Pigeons Playing Ping Pong, a band whose very existence is rooted in the unyielding quest for joy and positive energy. Blending infectious funk grooves, psychedelic jams and experimental electronics, the Baltimore four-piece’s new album, Pizazz, is a buoyant, blissful reminder of just how much fun music can be. Eschewing the traditional funk band lineup that Photo courtesy of Parallel 44 typically includes keyboards, Pigeons Playing Ping Pong constructs effervescent soundscapes with just two guitars, bass and drums, crafting their music with a sophisticated ear for both open space and dense layering. While Pizazz is, in many ways, a familiar continuation of the journey that’s earned the band its rapidly expanding and rabidly devoted following (known as The Flock), it also marks the beginning of a new chapter for Pigeons Playing Ping Pong. The album’s 11 tracks are the group’s first recorded with new drummer Alex Petropulos, whose airtight grooves and explosive power push the band’s sound to new heights. “We’ve had some of these songs in our live catalog for a while,” says Ormont, “but playing them with Alex has breathed new life into everything. His style and energy have revealed nooks and crannies that we didn’t even realize existed in the tracks. All music boils down to having a good drummer, especially in our dance-oriented jam world, and we’ve got the best drummer I’ve ever heard right now.” It’s a bold claim, but Pigeons Playing Ping Pong has the live show to back it up. Glide Magazine called them “a band that melts faces and pulls no punches,” while C-Ville Weekly praised the growing “cult around [their] high-energy music, goofy stage antics, and all around good vibes,” and JamBase raved that guitarist/vocalist Jeremy Schon is “destined to become one of our generation’s October 5-7, 2018 finest guitarists.” Since the group’s inception nearly a decade ago at the In Shaniko, Oregon and Madras, Oregon University of Maryland (where the band’s name came to Ormont and Schon Friday, October 5th Saturday, October 6th during a moment of transcendence in Psych 100), they’ve built up a reputation at the historic Shaniko Schoolhouse Erickson Aircraft Museum at the Madras Airport as one of the most engaging and life-affirming acts on the road, maintaining 1-1:30 pm Keith Taylor 1—1:30 Keith Taylor a relentless tour schedule that has them performing up to 200 shows a year October 5-7, 2018 1:30 — 2:30 pm Meg Graf, Vicki Cox, Lance MacLean & Guest 1:30–2:30 pm Meg Graf, Vicki Cox, Lance MacLean & Guest October 2018 In Shaniko, Oregon 5-7, and Madras, Oregon and hitting festivals from coast to coast.

S
aturday, October 6 at 7:30pm the nonprofit Tower Theatre Foundation presents an evening of rhythm, grooves and music to move you featuring Michael Glabicki, singer/songwriter of Rusted Root and guitarist Dirk Miller. The duo return after a stand-out performance at the Tower back in 2016. As the founding member and front man of Rusted Root, Michael Glabicki has spent the last 30 years tapping into the musical inspirations of the world around us, drawing upon rhythms from Africa to classic American rock and soul. Tower Theatre Foundation Communications Manager, Amanda Bird, got to speak with Glabicki about his passion for music and the upcoming tour – here’s what she learned: A. What group or performer did you see as your first live concert, and what do you remember from it? M. I went to a lot of live Polka dance shows in Pittsburgh with my family. I remember most the sense of community and joy. Never learned to dance the Polka but I loved to watch. A. What has been the most rewarding thing for you as an artist? M. Evolving! Everyday looking for a way to grow musically and in life. A. What has changed the most throughout your career? M. Sacrificing less more and more. Feels good! A. What are you most looking forward to on this upcoming tour? M. Connecting with some new audiences. The duo show has been mostly on the east coast so far and I have a good feeling about moving it west. A. What is your favorite song to play? M. Always the new stuff- right now probably Tumbleweed. A. What influences you most? M. I am a pretty internal writer, but while performing, the crowds can really affect my arrangement and delivery. I would say them and my wife! A. What excites you about performing at the Tower in Bend? M. It seems like an extremely musical crowd. I Iike that, and I feel like it’s gonna get real! A. What is your go-to pre-show routine? M. I like to meditate and sing a Mantra. Every time I do this it makes the show amazing. A. What do you know for sure? Photo by Cara Freidham M. Love conquers all! Come join us for an intimate evening of Rusted Root classics like Send Me on My Way, Martyr, Ecstasy and songs yet to be released. For Rusted Root fans, this is a show not to be missed.

he High Desert Community Theater Presents! Altar Egos (The I Do’s and Don’ts of an American Wedding). “All we want is a simple wedding,” agree Mark and Colleen as they get engaged. And their simple wedding stays simple, for about two minutes. Then the families get involved. There are the McMasters, who think the Frobishers are a bunch of snooty dudes, and the Frobishers, who picture the McMasters as a crowd of hillbillies. The bride’s father keeps offering the soon-to-bewed couple thousands of dollars to elope, “No questions asked!” The bride’s mother decides to call in her sister, who is a sweet, lovely woman, until she becomes “The Coordinator." The groom needs a best man so he enlists his uncle Josh, who’s an old hippie. The bride’s kid sister can’t wait for the wedding either, since she gets the bride’s old room, if she can talk Dad out of it, who wants it for a den, if he can talk Mom out of it, who wants it for a quilting room. The two mothers are literally dueling over the rehearsal dinner seating chart while the bride and groom wonder where it all went wrong. Throw into this mix football

Fall Down Angel
LITERARY
by Award-Winning Author Rick Steber
F
Each of us is born into this world as a perfect little angel. Sometimes – because of hard luck, adverse circumstance, quirks of fate, and our own reckless decisions – the perfect little angel falls down.
all Down Angel is a contemporary novel based on the true-life adventures of two runaways who work their way west hopping freight trains. The young man makes a series of bad decisions, turns to petty crime, is arrested and spends ten years in Folsom Prison. The young lady seizes on a business opportunity to become the madam of a legal brothel in Nevada. The genius of the story is in the strange twist of events when the two main characters meet again decades later and discover they share a common past. The backbone of this rich narrative is in the well-developed characters and an evolving plot that compels the reader to keep turning pages. Each decision made by the two main characters has dire implications for shaping the eventual outcome of their lives. Woven into this rich tapestry of story is a particular time — the era surrounding the Great Depression — and the coming of age of the American West. Rick Steber has over 40 titles under his belt and more than a million books in print. His writing has won many awards and is the only Oregon author to have been presented with the prestigious Western Writers of America Spur Award — Best Western Novel. He is a keen observer of the evolving American West and articulates these changes in prose that is boldly descriptive, invigorating and creative. ricksteber.com
Arcadia Publishing & The History Press Release Sunriver Publication Date: October 15
T
he idyllic community of Sunriver sits at the crossroads of Central Oregon. The region was inhabited as early as 11,500 years ago by native tribes. The first non-native explorers filtered through the area in the early 19th century, and homesteaders began farming the region in the late 1800s. During World War II, large tracts of land in the area became a training center for the US Army Corps of Engineers called Camp Abbot. In 1965, developer John Gray and attorney Don McCallum announced plans to build a residential and resort community on the former Army site. Named for the area’s two main features, sunshine and recreational waters, Sunriver is a dynamic community. Today, permanent residents and vacationing visitors take advantage of Central Oregon’s recreational opportunities, including golfing, fishing, hiking, biking, skiing and snowboarding. Local historian Tor Hanson has lived in Bend
for more than 25 years. He is a board member of the Deschutes County Historical Society and editor of its newsletter, the Homesteader. Hanson holds a degree in information and public relations from Skurup Folkhögskola in Sweden and is a freelance writer for various magazines and newspapers. The images are curated from the Sunriver Owners Association (SROA), Sunriver Resort, Sunriver Chamber of Commerce, Deschutes Historical Museum and other sources. Arcadia Publishing & The History Press is the largest and most comprehensive publisher of local and regional content in the U.S. By empowering local history and culture enthusiasts to write local stories for local audiences, we create exceptional books that are relevant on a local and personal level, and bring readers closer to their community, their neighbors and their past. arcadiapublishing.com

Bend Voice Artist Brings New Part of Jane Austen’s Universe to Life Of Fortune’s Reversal: A Pride and Prejudice Variation, by Don Jacobsen
T
he Netherfield Ball is a pivotal moment in Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice. But what if the Netherfield Ball never happened? Of Fortune’s Reversal is a novella-length tale based upon an inversion of Mrs. Bennet’s exclamation that with one good marriage, the other girls will be thrown in front of rich men. For more than two centuries, the Jane/Bingley: Lizzy/Darcy tetrarchy has been portrayed as the solution to Mary and Kitty’s marriage difficulties, not to mention Mrs. Bennet’s housing requirements. But what if that was not the case? Barbara Rich What if Mr. Bennet dies just as Jane is receiving the Bingley sisters’ invitation to dinner? No rainy-day horseback ride. No cold for Jane. No Elizabeth coming to Netherfield to nurse her elder sister...so no links forged in any way with Bingley... and Darcy. No Netherfield Ball. Barbara Rich, of Richcraft Studios, was a longtime Jane Austen aficionado before venturing into the Austen world as an audiobook narrator. She was thrilled at the opportunity to explore this alternative universe tale and bringing to light some of the less prominent figures from Pride and Prejudice. Rich says, “A hugely fun part of audiobook narration is discovering each character’s voice and having the privilege of bringing voices to a THEY’VE MOVED TO THE CANDY AISLE world that I love is such a treat!” All of this said in the most proper British accent, of course. Author Don Jacobson has written professionally since his post-collegiate days as a wire service reporter in Chicago. His output has ranged from news and features to advertising, television and radio. His work has been nominated for Emmys and other awards. Earlier in his career, he published five books, all non-fiction. He holds an advanced degree in History with specialties in Modern European History and the History of American Foreign Relations. As a college instructor, Don teaches United States History, World History, the History of Western Civilization and Research Writing. Don turned his passion for reading The Canon into writing JAFF.

The artists’ work appears in the upper and lower galleries through Thanksgiving weekend until November 25. Brent Lawrence, sculptor and a third generation metal worker, as a young boy observed his father’s early artistic endeavors welding with wire. Intrigued, he learned how to use an oxy-acetylene torch, cutting daisies from Campbell Soup can lids. At age ten, he became not only an artist but an entrepreneur, selling his creations to his grade school teachers; he continued art pursuits through early high school. Luke Lawrence, a fourth generation metal worker and third generation artist, graduated from the University of Oregon, majoring in philosophy which included the study of art’s emergence, it’s reflection of and impact upon culture. Following college, work in the Caribbean and traveling the US, he returned to work with his father, Brent Lawrence, and to his own art of wildlife sculpture. Also in the current exhibition, Courtney Holton shows his recent “construction series,” featuring a dark background painted on canvas to which he adheres embellished metallic strips, producing a 3D effect. He also shows elaborately painted ink jet photographic portraits of Native Americans, desiring “to remember and to respect.” The Wooden Jewel 57100 Beaver Dr. 541-593-4151 • info@thewoodenjewel.com • thewoodenjewel.com Resident artist Michael Bryant is a gifted sculptor with a long list of accolades.

Dragonfly Diptych by Brent & Luke Lawrence
Sunriver Lodge Betty Gray Gallery unriver Resort Lodge Betty Gray Gallery presents metal sculptors Brent Lawrence and Luke Lawrence with Courtney Holton, painter; the three artists’ work appears in the upper and lower galleries through Thanksgiving weekend until November 25. On Saturday, October 13 from 4:30-6pm, the artists will attend a public reception in their honor in the upper gallery. Brent Lawrence, sculptor and a third generation metal worker, as a young boy observed his father’s early artistic endeavors welding with wire. Intrigued, he learned how to use an oxy-acetylene torch, cutting daisies from Campbell Soup can lids. At age ten, he became not only an artist but an entrepreneur, selling his creations to his grade school teachers; he continued art pursuits through early high school. Following graduation from Portland State University, Lawrence worked in a bank (noting, “in a cubical”) and decided art was of greater interest. He returned to Sheridan and worked with his father, noted artist and gallery

owner, Gary Lawrence, beginning to foster his own creativity. Exploring his own style, he cut and welded bronze, steel and stainless steel into African animals – giraffes, elephants, wildebeest herds. Later creations were challenging 4” thick, contoured tide pools with welded rocks, kelp, clams and mussels. Tiring of those time consuming 3D creations, the young artist learned casting, finding his preference for hands-on fabrication with the metals of his early training. He broadened his creative style, experimenting with chemicals to produce patinas. Over two laborious years, he perfected how to adhere these unique patinas to steel and stainless steel, and later adapted to a plasma torch to more readily cut steel into unique shapes. Now, after 30 some years of artistic creation and experimentation, he painstakingly creates his modernized expression of man’s earliest art form cave drawings.

Strong Attendance & SUNRIVER Donations Highlight Sunriver Music Festival's 41st Season s reported to the Sunriver Music Festival’s Board of Trustees, Leonard Bernstein and inspired programming proved a winning combination for the Festival’s 41st season. “Four out of the six ticketed summer concerts were sold out and the other two were well-attended,” states Pam Beezley, the Festival’s Executive Director. “Overall sales grew almost $6,000 from last year’s summer season, proving the popularity of the Bernstein-inspired programs created by Maestro George Hanson.” Beezley added that one of the most satisfying results of the 41st season was an increase in fundraising. The Festival’s two major fundraisers—the Swings fore Strings golf tournament and the Festival Faire auction gala—both

and charcoal filter mask, he creates his difficult and long-desired replication of the Paleolithic art of 36,000 years ago. Using stylized images of elk, bison, bear, trout, salmon, even dragonflies and paying homage to a far distant past, Brent Lawrence successfully produces his distinct and singular art. A professional artist since 1987, Brent Lawrence’s sculpture shows in galleries throughout the West. Cowboys and Indians Magazine and Southwest Art Magazine also featured his art. His work appears in the noted collections of Stephen Forbes (Forbes Magazine), Larry Graveel (former owner, Under Armor), Mike O’Meara (PGA Pro Golfer), Y.A. Tittle (Pro Football Hall of Fame), and many others. Luke Lawrence, a fourth generation metal worker and third generation artist, graduated from the University of Oregon, majoring in philosophy which included the study of art’s emergence, it’s reflection of and impact upon culture. Following college, work in the Caribbean and traveling the US, he returned to work with his father, Brent Lawrence, and to his own art of wildlife sculpture. He speaks of his enjoyment in working with his hands, with metal and creating, as well as his pleasure in working with and learning from his grandfather and father. Thus, he continues the precedent set by earlier generations in that his grandfather, Gary Lawrence, learned metal working from his father. Hence four Lawrence generations have created with metal. Galleries in Park City, Utah; Sedona, Arizona; Whitefish, Montana; and Portland, Oregon feature the art of Luke Lawrence who works as a professional artist since 2009. His fire art sculpture received the third place award in the 2018 Bend Winter Fest competition. Also in the current exhibition, Courtney Holton shows his recent “construction series,” featuring a dark background painted on canvas to which he adheres embellished metallic strips, producing a 3D effect. He also shows elaborately painted ink jet photographic portraits of Native Americans, desiring “to remember and to respect.” The artist, a native Oregonian, now divides his time between Bend and southern France where he presently studies printmaking with a renowned French printer.

increased in net proceeds this year and that allowed the Festival to award more scholarships through the Young Artists Scholarship program. “Many concert attendees are unaware that a major mission of the Festival is to encourage the next generation of artists,” explains Beezley. “This year we awarded $39,400 to 26 students between the ages 13 and 23, the highest dollar amount in our scholarship program’s 22-year history.” Although the 41st summer season is in the record books, the music continues. The Festival is now selling tickets to its popular Fireside Concerts starting Friday, December 7 with Boogie Woogie Pianist Arthur Migliazza. In December, tickets will go on sale for the Festival’s 2019 Valentine Dinner & Dance, which makes a great Christmas present.

Treaty Conference in celebration of The Museum At Warm Springs’ 25th anniversary will take place October 25-27. People of the River, People of the Salmon: Then, Now and Tomorrow (“Wana Thlama-Nusuxmí Tanánma: E-Wah’-Cha’-Nye”) will be hosted by The Museum At Warm Springs and will focus on the 1855 Treaty and the establishment of the museum in 1993 as important actions of inherent sovereignty.

The Treaty with the Tribes of Middle Oregon 1855 will be on display in the museum October 2-November 3. The exhibit will include six pages of the original copy of the Treaty with the Tribes of Middle Oregon 1855 that established the Warm Springs Reservation. Warm Springs tribal member and museum archivist Evaline Patt selected the pages that are on loan from the National Archives in Washington D.C. Museum hours are Tuesday through Saturday, 9am to 5pm, and 8am to 5pm during the Treaty Conference. “On March 14, 1993, The Museum At Warm Springs opened its doors as a living repository and center to perpetuate the culture and heritage of The Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs,” articulated Douglas Goe, Museum Board of Directors Chairman, “The Treaty Conference is an important Museum 25th anniversary event that will educate the public about tribal history, culture and heritage and the Treaty with the Tribes of Middle Oregon 1855 that established the Warm Springs Reservation.” Conference speakers and distinguished guests will include: Warm Springs tribal
