REGARDING HENRY Now I’ve been wrong about a few things in my life. When I was 12, I swore blind that the lyrics to Metallica’s “Sad But Tue� were actually “Temperature� — a mistake that I would go on to compound by yelling this erroneous chorus at the top of my lungs, much to the amusement of my fellow tweener metalheads.

Then there was the time when, as an undergraduate at university, I was convinced that the best way to get a batch of inatable sunowers to stick to our apartment wall was

to nail them there ‌ with nails.

But the more I look at the gradually emerging picture in the lobby of Lincoln City’s Driftwood Public Library, the more convinced I am about whose visage lies beneath those mysterious question marks.

Without a shadow of a doubt, that is Circulation Supervisor Ken Hobson staring out at library guests, resplendent in a King Henry the Eighth getup.

Why on Earth is he dressed as England’s religion-swapping, wife-

Get pumped, for “Dances from the Heart�

PaciďŹ c Dance Ensemble alumni Cecily Wechter and Michaela Shoberg will return to their Newport roots this weekend to choreograph performances in “Dances from the Heart,â€? the ensemble’s 31st anniversary Valentine’s celebration.

The free performance and beneďŹ t auction, which runs from Friday, Feb. 10, through Sunday, Feb. 12, will also feature choreography from ensemble Artistic Director Nancy Mittleman and other ensemble members. “The Lincoln County community web continues to expand as PDE alumni weave themselves into the ďŹ ber of new communities and then bring their worlds back to share with us,â€? Mittleman said.

Wechter is now an internationally based choreographer, launching her career in contemporary dance in Western Iceland, just north of Reykjavik. After leaving Newport, Wechter went on to study and graduate from the School of Music and Dance at the University of Oregon. She is an alumni of the UO Repertory Dance Company and Lane Dance Company. She is currently teaching community classes in modern dance with an exploration into the Gaga movement style, developed by Ohad Naharin, choreographer of the acclaimed Batsheva Dance Company in Israel.

Shoberg, who studied with Mittleman for 12 years and was an ensemble member for six, went on to receive her bachelor’s degree in dance from San Francisco State University, followed by a master’s in Exercise Physiology from the same institution. She is currently on sta at the Bay Sport Preventive Medical Group and also co-directs Requisitedance in San Francisco. Six members of her company will be performing this weekend in “Dances from the Heartâ€?.

Mittleman founded the PaciďŹ c Dance Ensemble as a training ground for young dancers, oering a rigorous program with numerous rehearsals, multiple performances throughout the year and the chance to work hand-in-hand with professional artists.

Ensemble alumni have gone on to study and perform in such places as Juilliard and the Martha Graham Studio in New York, the San

The Little Log Church and Museum in Yachats will present its annual Ceremony of Renewal and Commitment this Valentine’s Day, Tuesday, Feb. 14.

Now in its 22nd year, the ceremony offers committed couples, married or otherwise, the opportunity to renew their vows in a group setting.

Mary Crook, the independent minister who has facilitated the event since 1996, said hundreds of couples have come to Yachats to renew their vows over the years.

“For some couples it is a first-time experience,” she said; “for others it has become an annual tradition — something fun and meaningful to do on Valentine’s Day.” This year, local violinist Ruth Mock will play a selection of romantic pieces at the ceremony.

Each couple will also receive a certificate as a memento of the occasion.

The ceremony will begin at 5:30 pm at the church, located at SW Third Street and Pontiac in the heart of town.

Antique Weakness Syndrome: diagnosis and prescription

By Dana Grae Kane For the TODAY

Does the faintest glimpse of a satin-finish, crosssawn, claw-footed, barleytwist, solid oak refectory table cause you to tremble uncontrollably? Do your fingers tingle at the merest contact with Art Nouveau advertising ephemera and the parchment pages of leather-bound books? Does holding a coin from a vanished civilization flood your brain with imagery from ancient history? Are you inexorably drawn to fragile exemplars of china, glass and pottery, all of which must be placed away from the sweep of your exuberant dog’s tail and the sticky clutches of your toddler? Do you crave handforged tools for which the purpose is lost in time? If so, you are clearly have Antique Weakness Syndrome.

Fortunately, there is no need to call 911. While there is no cure for your chronic condition, it is treatable with visits to each of Lincoln City’s wonderful venues during Antique Week, Saturday, Feb. 11, to Monday, Feb. 20. With heavy doses of bargainsleuthing for all 10 days, supplemented with booster visits throughout the year and support group therapy, your symptoms will be fully controlled.

Coastal collecting offers something that inland antiquing can almost never provide — the chance of finding a rare Oregon maritime artifact. Mine is a metal table lamp, created in 1928 by master artist Atillo Pusterla, replicating in highrelief and remarkable detail his beautiful spiral sgraffito design on the Astoria Column, memorializing the development of the

northwest. The bases of the column and the lamp bear the names of the artist, architect Electus Litchfield, Lewis and Clark, whose expedition ended at Astoria, John Jacob Astor, founder of Astoria, and Captain Robert Gray, discoverer of the Columbia River. I know of no other copy of this lamp, but it seems likely to be one of a limited edition.

You might discover another during Antique Week.

We the antique-afflicted have our highly individual preferences. Some of mine happen to be writing desks, pens, hand-written letters, books, black and white photographs, carved Turkish meerschaum pipes, glazed Chinese ginger pots and solid wood cabinets that hide odious electronic components and their snaky cords. But no

matter how strongly our particular tastes differ, we all share an appreciation of lasting construction, fine craftsmanship, exquisite form and unusual styles not often found in our current culture of mass-production and planned obsolescence.

Many of us are in effect curators of our own minimuseums, committed to the preservation of creations that will never be again.

The loss of any one of these equals the surgical excision of a vital part of our human heritage, irreparably diminishing delight and narrowing the scope and depth of aesthetic sensibility to the detriment of ourselves and those who follow us.

If your family heirlooms have been lost, Antique Week is the perfect time to start rebuilding your legacy at bargain prices. In

particular regard to antique furniture, you might benefit from some of the things I learned about hardwood the hard way. These are my Rules of the Road for Furniture Forays.

Measure your space accurately (very): Making sure what you buy will fit your available space beats throwing a fit when it doesn’t. Measure wall spaces very carefully, remembering you need to leave sockets, heat vents and draperies unblocked. Then measure the width of doorways and hallways through which your purchases must pass.

Write down the dimensions you absolutely cannot exceed. Glue the note to your forehead and your tape measure to your hand.

Donate a piece to make room for another: It’s still all about space, then

determining what styles and finishes will work well with your existing décor. Consider replacing a piece rather than cramming in another. Donate the one you’ve outgrown to Beachtown Charities Thrift Store or Restore for a tasty tax deduction.

Consider your condition criteria: Perfection in a piece is hard to find after it has knocked around for a century or two, and flawless pieces command very high prices. These prima donnas also require you to walk on eggs to avoid damaging them. Personally, I prefer battle-scarred veterans I can actually use and abuse with impunity, reflective of other lives about which I am always inspired to wonder mightily. What might have happened in 1865 to make someone mad enough to kick in the front

of what is now my Victorian oak dresser and who was the genius who made the virtually invisible repair?

This concatenation of events gave me what might have been a $2,000 dresser for $275.

Purchase pieces that function: “Beauty is as beauty does.” Select pieces with interior storage capacity and flat top surfaces rather than gorgeous lumps that just sit there showing off.

Many armoires, break-fronts, cabinets and cupboards can be modified inside to hold items such as bedding, china, home office equipment and electronics. However, remember that once you alter a piece, such as by drilling holes in the back for cords the way I do, you destroy its antique value, as we have learned so well from Antiques Road Show.

If it’s heavy, make sure it has wheels: You will not only hurt your back, you will weaken or break the legs of old furniture if you try to push or drag it. If you are lucky, the wheels will be wood or iron originals.

I can hardly wait for Antique Week, but it’s the hunting that’s exciting, not the possessing, I find.

There’s great fun to be had searching for things other people collect and surprising them on birthdays and at Christmas. While I love haunting antique shops, I don’t limit my sleuthing to those alone. For example, in a recent year Goodwill provided a perfect original English Blue Willow service platter for about $7 that now delivers 21 lb. turkeys to the Thanksgiving table of a very good cook and guarantees me an invitation for life. So don’t overlook Lincoln City’s thrift shops, flea markets and estate/garage sales as you go antiquing. You never know…

beach reads

Reading in the rain Readers throughout the Newport area will be cracking open copies of “The Art of Racing in the Rain” this winter as the community gears up for its 12th annual Newport Reads! event.

Hosted by the Newport Library Foundation, the program aims to deepen the community’s engagement with literature through reading and discussion. Many of the past Newport Reads! selections have been written by excellent Northwest authors, and this year’s, by Seattle author Garth Stein, is no exception.

Winner of the 2009 Pacific Northwest Booksellers Association Award, “The Art of Racing in the Rain” is told from the point of view of Enzo, a race car-obsessed dog who believes he will be reincarnated as a human.

The day before his death, Enzo looks back over the people and events that shaped his life, on his race car-driving owner Denny, the death of Denny’s wife, and the ensuing custody battle between Denny and his in-laws over daughter Zoë.

Stein moved from New York City to Seattle in 2001 and became involved in high performance driver education, receiving his racing license with the Sports Car Club of America, and winning the points championship in the Northwest Region Spec Miata class in 2004. He left racing after a serious crash — while racing in the rain.

Stein’s other novels include “Raven Stole the Moon” and “How Evan Broke His Head and Other Secrets.” His most recent novel, “A Sudden Light,” was published in 2014.

Stein will appear at the Newport Performing Arts Center at 7 pm on Wednesday, April 19, to talk about his work and take questions from the audience. In keeping with the human-animal connection central to the book, guests are encouraged to bring pet food for the Lincoln County Animal Shelter. After the program, Stein will be autographing copies of his books, which will be available for purchase.

Multiple copies of “The Art of Racing in the Rain” are available in various formats (including large print, audio and digital) from the Newport Public Library. The library will also be giving away five copies via its Facebook page.

writing.

Leading this year’s workshops are Carl Adamshick and Emily Kendal Frey.

Adamshick is the author of “Saint Friend” and “Curses and Wishes,” which won the Walt Whitman award from the Academy of American Poets. Both titles received an Oregon Book Award. He has taught at Catlin Gabel and lectured at Stanford University and the American International School in Vienna, as well as being a writer in-residence at the William Stafford Archive at Lewis and Clark College. His work has been published in Harvard Review, American Poetry Review, The Missouri Review and Narrative. He is a founder and editor at Tavern Books, a non-profit press

dedicated to poetry and the preservation of books.

Frey is the author of several poetry collections, including “The Grief Performance,” winner of the 2012 Norma Farber First Book Award from the Poetry Society of America; and “Sorrow Arrow,” winner of the 2015 Oregon Book Award. She teaches at the Independent Publishing Resource Center, Marylhurst University, Portland Community College and Portland State University.

Registration for the full weekend, including a networking evening on Friday, is $165 through March 15 and $195 thereafter.

Enjoy the Krack, in Newport

Winter, meet chocolate...

Winter on the Oregon Coast has a way of sapping the endorphins, but organizers of the Community Arts Project in Tillamook County are fighting back with their annual fund-raiser.

Your Art’s Desire: A Celebration of Chocolate, Wine & Art will take place this Saturday, Feb 11, at the Kiawanda Community Center in Pacific City.

The celebration will begin with a free art preview and silent auction from noon to 4 pm.

Then, from 6:30 to 9:30 pm, ticketed guests will be treated to complimentary wine, beer, sparkling cider, appetizers and desserts against a backdrop of live music.

An art sale, silent auction, student art show and raffle will complete the evening festivities.

Guests will have the chance to browse a range of special,

6-inch-square panels created by local artists on the theme of “Passion” — and available to take home for $75 apiece.

All proceeds from the sale of the Passion panels will support the Community Arts Project Art Literacy program.

Artists will also sell studio art with commissions ranging from 50 to 100 percent being donated to the Community Arts Project.

The project provides art literacy programs to some 450 students each month at Nestucca Valley Elementary School in Cloverdale and Garibaldi Grade School, and also operates the Slug Soup children’s summer art program.

Tickets to the evening event are $30 advance and $35 at the door.

For more information or to purchase tickets, call 503-550-9655 or go to communityartsproject.net.

A good crab dinner is worth waiting for. And history buffs will have their patience rewarded this Sunday, Feb. 12, when the Lincoln County Historical Society’s Annual Crab Krack gets underway in Newport.

Postponed from January due to the delay in the crab season, the fund-raising celebration has arrived just in time for couples to celebrate Valentine’s Day with a fresh local Dungeness crab dinner and live jazz.

This whole-crab dinner event includes various side dishes, an array of desserts, a no-host bar, live music by the Bringetto Jazz Duo, and both

a silent and oral auction.

Local fishermen Ted Gibson, Bob Eder and Scott Lager are donating the crab, with processing donated by Pacific Shrimp.

The Crab Krack will

take place 4 pm, at the Best Western Agate Beach Inn, 3019 Hwy. 101.

Event proceeds will be used to complete lower floor renovations at the Pacific Maritime Heritage Center.

This year’s Crab Krack earnings will also help the society in its quest to secure a $45,000 challenge grant from The Collins Foundation. To date, the society has raised 56 percent of the funds needed to meet the challenge. These funds will be used to complete the Doerfler Family Theatre, a more-than-100 seat media and event space made possible in large part by a grant from the Doerfler Family Trust.

Tickets, $55 or $45 for society members, are available at the Burrows House and Pacific Maritime Heritage Museums. For more information or to buy tickets, call 541-265-7509.

The key to a great relationship If you see a dapper-looking gentleman whispering his order at the coffee shop in the run up to Valentine’s Day, you might just have stumbled across a member of the Coastal-Aires Barbershop Chorus.

The group’s members are saving their vocal cords for one of the busiest days of the year, when they will group together into quartets and dash throughout Lincoln County to deliver Singing Valentines.

For $30, the Coastal-Aires will deliver

two songs and a rose to your loved one on Valentine’s Day, whether at work, school or at home. Quartets will be available beginning at 9 am and continue throughout the day, with the service available anywhere from Waldport to Lincoln Beach, including Toledo.

“This is some of the most fun we have all year!” said Coastal-Aire Bob White. “This year leave your sweetheart speechless; say ‘I love you’ with a song.”

For more information or to schedule your Singing Valentine, call 541-9613566 and leave your name, phone number and times you can be reached without giving away the surprise.

The Coastal-Aires are affiliated with the Barbershop Harmony Society, a not-for-profit organization dedicated to the preservation of the barbershop style, sharing the joy of singing and promoting music education.

Arts collide, in “Kaleidoscope” Abstracted works inspired by the natural world will be on display at Lincoln City’s Chessman Gallery this Friday, Feb. 10, when it unveils “Kaleidoscope: Patterns of Land, Ocean, Sun, and Sky.” The joint exhibit, featuring collage and mixed media from Ron Bunch alongside glass art by Bob Heath, will open with a public reception from 5 to 7 pm, offering wine, appetizers and a chance to chat with the artists.

The works exhibited in “Kaleidoscope” echo the coastal landscape, with both Bunch and Heath fragmenting these visual influences and reorganizing them into abstracted works that still evoke the brilliance of the natural phenomena.

As Bunch deconstructs and recreates visions through the layering of colors and transparencies in his collages, he pushes the boundaries of light and form in their relationship to ocean, land and sky.

Complementing these collages is the fused glasswork of Heath, who draws inspiration from beams of sunlight and topographical images alike as he skillfully brings together patterns, colors and forms.

Together, Bunch and Heath’s playful abstractions place viewers into a fantastic kaleidoscope that illuminates the natural world’s

beauty.

Bunch is primarily a self-taught artist, whose work is informed by his background in landscape architecture. Strongly influenced by the landscapes associated with his upbringing in rural Oregon, he often creates from memory alone and finds his recollections transform the landscapes. Since retiring, Bunch has been able to work full time in his own studio at Radius Studios in Portland.

Heath’s 35 years as an engineer have given him the appreciation for detail and design that is evident in his glass forms. He has studied with a wide range of glass artists and experimented with just about everything a person can do with glass, but is still eager to learn and explore new techniques. Heath is an active member of the Oregon Glass Guild and was selected as a finalist in the 2014 Bullseye Emerging Artists biannual art-glass competition.

This exhibit will be on display until Monday, March 10, available to view from 10 am to 4 pm daily except Tuesdays. The Chessman Gallery is located inside the Lincoln City Cultural Center at 540 NE Hwy. 101.

on the cover LINCOLN CITY’S ANTIQUE WEEK NEVER GETS OLD Some collectors count their treasures by the dozen, some by the hundred and some by the thousand. But when Antique Week returns to Lincoln City this weekend, the only number that matters is seven.

That’s how many stamps antique aficionados need to get on their Quilt Quest Treasure Hunt maps for a chance at winning great prizes, including a beach getaway.

The Quilt Quest contest plays off this year’s Antique Week theme, “Communities Sewn Together,” challenging players to find quilt squares hidden in seven antique stores throughout town.

Anyone finding all seven will be entered into a draw for prizes including a weekend getaway to Lincoln City, antique glass floats and glass hearts.

You’ll find your map tucked inside this copy of Oregon Coast TODAY. Maps are also available at the Visitor Information Center, Chamber of Commerce and local antique stores, or download a copy from OregonCoast.org.

Running from Saturday, Feb. 11, through Monday, Feb. 20, Antique Week features some 100 antique dealers from more than a dozen retailers in Lincoln City. Antique stores throughout town offer deals and discounts throughout the 10-day promotion, making it the perfect time to pick up that special something.

Leslie Schwartz, owner of Carousel by the Beach, said Antique Week is perfectly timed to provide indoor entertainment right in the middle of the coast’s wet winter months.

“We get people from different states and people that

Above: Stealthy volunteers will hide some 300 antique Japanese glass floats on the beach throughout Antique Week Left: Leslie Schwartz of Carousel by the Beach

are here just for that reason,” she said, adding that nautical items are always a draw for visitors.

While other favorites come and go, she said, visitors are always interested in blown glass, including the glass floats that Lincoln City hides on its beaches throughout the winter.

“Every one of those glass floats is unique,” she said.

Schwartz has been in the antique business for 30 years, with an early emphasis on glass and ceramics having long since broadened to include everything from guitars to model sharks.

“To me, now, if it’s old and cool — great,” she said. “If it’s new and it’s still cool, it’s still great. I don’t discriminate, I like everything.”

Items old and new are also welcome at the Lincoln City Cultural Center, which will hold an appraise-a-thon on Wednesday, Feb 15. From 5 to 8 pm, a panel of antique store owners will appraise treasures for $5 per item. The event will also include a silent auction and food and beverage for sale.

And throughout Antique Week, guests are welcome at

14 • oregoncoastTODAY.com • facebook.com/oregoncoasttoday • february 10, 2017

the North Lincoln County Historical Museum, which features exhibits on local history and the history of glass floats as well as a special antique quilt exhibit.

To get your hands on a float of your own, hit the beach any time during Antique Week for a chance at finding one of the 300 antique Japanese glass floats hidden on the sands by

stealthy volunteers as part of Lincoln City’s popular Finders Keepers promotion. These Float Fairies hide their treasures only during daylight hours and always between the high tide line and the embankment.

For the romantics, the Float Fairies will lovingly place 14 heart-shaped paperweights along Lincoln City’s seven miles of shoreline on Saturday and Sunday, Feb. 11 and 12.

If you happen to find one of these glass treasures on the beach, make sure to share your photos of them via Facebook at Facebook.com/ LincolnCityOregon, on Twitter using the tag @LincolnCityOR or on Instagram using @ LincolnCityOR and #FindersKeepersLC.

No pane, no gain Neck-st adventure Anyone who has spent a winter on the Oregon Coast knows that it’s a nice time to be indoors. And your vegetables and flowers probably feel the same way.

So, for their second round table discussion of the year, the Lincoln County Master Gardeners are presenting “More On Greenhouses,” showing how a little bit of shelter can help jump start your garden, maximize earlier yields and let you work in the soil year-round.

Dan Barrett, owner of Toledo’s Affordable Space, will present a range of greenhouse concepts and building designs, from small cloches to commercial hot houses. He will discuss and answer questions about size,

construction, coverings, soil, heat retention and much more. For those who are handy and would like to build their own structure,

information on where to find materials for greenhouse and cloche construction will be available.

Sally Reill, a long time master gardener with many years of experience using greenhouses, will answer questions about various ways in which to use a greenhouse, as well as offering tips on heating and ventilation.

The round table will run from 10 am to noon on Thursday, Feb. 16, in the community room of the Oregon Coast Community College campus, 400 SE College Way, Newport.

The event is free to all but please call the OSU Extension Office at 541-574-6534, ext.

The Audubon Society of Lincoln City will peer at Siletz Bay from all angles this Saturday, Feb. 11, on a birding field trip in search of everything from ducks and grebes to herons and raptors.

No prior birding experience is required and binoculars and guidebooks can be provided.

The tour will begin at 9 am at Taft dock in Lincoln City, with participants carpooling to various viewing spots at Cutler City, Siletz Keys and the Salishan Nature Trail. Most viewing sites are handicapped-accessible so this field trip is more appropriate than many for birders with limited mobility.

Siletz Bay regularly hosts thousands of wintering waterfowl and shorebirds including ducks, loons, grebes, raptors, shorebirds, gulls and herons.

Winter storms can bring unusual birds in addition to creating unusually difficult viewing conditions.

Taft Dock is located just west of Mo’s Restaurant at 860 SW 51st Street.

For more information, call 541-992-9720.

For upcoming field trip descriptions, go to http://lincolncityaudubon.org/calendar.html, and mark your calendar for the Saturday, March 11, excursion to Nestucca National Wildlife Refuge.

Author and dunes enthusiast Dina Pavlis will offer a virtual tour of the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area in “Wildlife of the Oregon Dunes” this Sunday, Feb. 11, at the Cape Perpetua Visitor Center near Yachats.

Spanning more than 40 miles from Florence to Coos Bay, the area is the longest expanse of coastal sand dunes in the United States and attracts more than a million visitors each year. The dunes are managed by the Siuslaw National Forest and are recognized for their unique habitat amid the temperate rainforests of the Oregon Coast range.

“From beach to forest, the Oregon dunes boast over 400 species of wildlife and many of them are downright amazing!” Pavlis said.

Guests will learn about the birds and animals of the Oregon dunes, why their habitat is threatened, and how volunteers are partnering with the US Forest Service to save this

Daimh! That sounds good.

We love a nice visual pun here at TODAY Towers.

But any Gaelic speakers reading this will know full well that “daimh” is actually pronounced a lot more like “dive” and translates roughly as “kinship.”

And that kinship will be on display on Sunday, Feb. 12, when this award-winning Gaelic supergroup step on stage at the Lincoln City Cultural Center, armed with guitar, pipes, whistle and mandola.

Winners of last year’s “Folk Band of the Year” at the Scottish Traditional Music Awards, Daimh are the unchallenged champions of straight-in-the-eye Highland music. They’re based around West Lochaber and the Isle of Skye, but have taken their music to more than 20 countries,

from Moscow to San Francisco.

With a reputation as giants of the bagpipes and fiddle, Angus Mackenzie and Gabe McVarish lead the

melodic powerhouse with fellow founder member Ross Martin underpinning the groove on the guitar. They’re joined by Murdo “Yogi” Cameron on mandola and

accordion to complete the instrumental lineup.

Daimh have always had the renown and notoriety of working with some of the finest Gaelic singers in

Scotland and the current lineup only serves to cement that distinction with the addition of the Gaelic firmament’s most rapidly rising star, Ellen MacDonald, on vocals.

From pyrotechnic jigs and reels to achingly poignant ballads, Daimh run the full expressive gamut of folk music. Although they’re renowned for their live shows, they have also released five studio albums including the most recent, “Tuneship.”

Sunday’s show will begin at 7 pm with doors open at 6:30 pm at the cultural center, 540 NE Hwy. 101.

Tickets, $25 in advance, $27 at the door and $10 for kids aged 18 and under, are available at lincolncityculturalcenter.org or by calling 541-994-9994.

Claim asylum, in Nehalem

Nehalem’s Riverbend Players will kick off their 2017 season this weekend when the curtain goes up on “The Curious Savage,” by John Patrick.

The heartwarming comedy chronicles the adventures of Mrs. Ethel P. Savage, whose stepchildren have her committed to The Cloisters in a bid to prevent her from spending what they consider their inheritance.

The Cloisters is not an asylum but a home to several gentle people, each with their own eccentricities, who are referred to as “guests,” rather than “inmates.”

“It’s a delightful story,” Director Suzanne Jelineo said. “It shows people working together and living together — and accepting each other. The play reminds us, in a warm and heartfelt way, that we each are unique and need to be appreciated by others.”

The play opens this Saturday, Feb. 11, with a performance at 7 pm,

preceded by a public reception at 5:45 pm, with free refreshments and an opportunity to meet some of the cast.

Saturday’s performance will be followed by a 2 pm matinée on Sunday, Feb 12.

The run continues with 7 pm performances on Friday and Saturday,

Feb. 17 and 18 and concludes the following weekend, with 7 pm performances on Friday and Saturday, Feb. 24 and 25, and a 2 pm matinée on Sunday, Feb. 26.

All performances take place at the North County Recreation District Performing Arts Center at 36155 9th

Street, with doors opening half an hour before the play starts.

Tickets, $15 or free for children under 12, and can be purchased either at the door or at the NCRD office at 36155 9th Street in Nehalem. For more information, call 503-368-7008.

Lots of authors to Tues from

Waldport’s Tuesday Writers group will read from an anthology of their best poetry, fiction and memoirs in a presentation at the Yachats Commons this Saturday, Feb. 11.

Prize-winning writers Ruth F. Harrison, Shirley Plummer, Sandra Mason, Brenda Croghan, Aron Rothstein, Wendy Green and Stanley Buck will read from their works. Selections include short poems in many forms including haiku, a memoir about observing antelope in Namibia, memories of growing up in rural central Oregon, a portion of a novel about the Oregon Coast’s own lighthouse ghost, and short stories told from a woman’s point of view.

Copies of the anthology will be for sale, along with light refreshments. Other books by members of the group will also be available.

The reading will begin at 2 pm at the commons, 441 Hwy. 101 N., and will conclude with an open mic session. All are welcome.

The Tuesday Writers were founded in 1990 by Ruth F. Harrison of Waldport and have met every week since then without fail.

The group is currently accepting applications for membership by experienced writers with a current project who are willing to commit to weekly attendance and constructive critique.

Prospective members are invited to come along and read five minutes of their current work.

For more information, call 541-351-5338.
