Agatha Cristie’s “The Mousetrap” opens in Lincoln City A classic murder mystery will play out in Lincoln City this weekend as Theatre West begins its summer run of Agatha Christie’s “The Mousetrap.” The twisting tale begins with a group of strangers stranded in a boarding house during a snowstorm. When one of the guests is discovered dead, everyone becomes a suspect — the newly married couple who run the house, a spinster with a curious background, an architect who seems better equipped to be a chef, a retired army major, a strange little man who claims his car has overturned in a snowdrift, and a jurist who makes life

Gala opening

miserable for everyone. Then, into their midst comes a policeman, traveling on skis. To catch the killer, Detective Sergeant Trotter probes the background of everyone present, and rattles a lot of skeletons. The play stars Debbie Gerber as Mollie, Steve Griffiths as Giles, Rich Emery as Chris, Joy Gallager as Mrs. Boyle, M.E. Black as The Major, Roseanne Johnson as Casewell, Shelby Barton as Paravicini and Bryan Kirsch as Trotter. Stina Seeger-Gibson is the director, assisted by Karen Davis. The play will run from July

9 through Aug. 29, with 8 pm performances every Thursday, Friday and Saturday, and doors opening at 7:30 pm. There will be 2 pm matinées on Sunday, July 19, and Sunday, Aug. 9, with doors opening at 1:30 pm. Tickets are $14 for adults, $12 for seniors and students and $9 for children 12 and under. A special group discount is available at $10 per ticket for groups of 10 or more with a pre-paid reservation. To reserve seats, call 541994-5663, leave a message and someone will call you back. Theatre West is located at 3536 SE Hwy. 101 in Lincoln City.

The Oregon Coast TODAY has a habit of turning up early in Lincoln City, meaning that as you read these words there might still be time to snag a seat at the Thursday, July 9, gala opening of “The Moustrap.” The event, which celebrates the theater’s 40-year history in conjunction with Lincoln City’s 50th birthday celebrations, will feature champagne along with appetizers and desserts from the Nelscott Café. Doors will open at 7 pm. Tickets are $30. To reserve seats, call 541-994-5663, leave a message and someone will call you back.

Birdwatching rocks You wooden leg to miss it... Anyone spotting license plates on Highway 101 at the height of summer will quickly rack up sightings of specimens from across the country (keep your eyes peeled for the exotic dark blue of Delaware). The same is true for anyone training their binoculars on the area’s snags, rocks and beaches, where a host of visiting birds are to be found rubbing shoulders with the locals. On Saturday, July 11, the Audubon Society of Lincoln City will offer a field trip to the Yaquina Head Outstanding Natural Area just north of Newport. Led by Mark Elliott, the trip will offer participants a chance to see nesting colonies of the Common Murre, Bald Eagle, Black Oystercatcher, Cormorants, Brown Pelican, Peregrine Falcon and Pigeon Guillemot. No prior birding experience is required and binoculars and guidebooks will be provided. The group will meet at 9 am in the interpretive

center parking lot; turn west from Highway 101 on to Lighthouse Drive. Birders should also mark their calendars for the July 17 Open Space Bird Walk from the Villages at Cascade Head to Roads End and the July 25 trip to Friends of Wildwood Trail. The group’s next monthly birding field trip is set for Saturday, Aug. 8, to Bay Ocean sand spit and Tillamook Bay in Tillamook County. For more information on upcoming trips, go to http:// lincolncityaudubon.org/ calendar.html.

Registration is now open for the third annual Buccaneer Rampage Mud Obstacle Race, which will take place on Saturday, Aug. 22, at the Newport Municipal Airport. Organized by the Newport Parks and Recreation Department, the event is the only one of its kind on the Oregon Coast, offering a fun and challenging course with a large side order of slippery mud. There will be music, food and a beer garden throughout the day, as well as prizes awarded for the best male and female pirate costumes. Advance registration starts at $35, rising to $45 on race day and is available at www. BuccaneerRampage.com. To accommodate spontaneous acts of piracy, registration stays open until 15 minutes before the starting gun goes off at 11 am. All proceeds from the event will go towards the youth scholarship program at the Newport Recreation Center. These funds allow children from economically disadvantaged households the opportunity to take part in recreation programs. For additional information, call the Newport Parks and Recreation Department at 541-265-7783.

Thyme for a trip The Newport 60+ Adventure Van will heading up into the Coast Range mountains on Wednesday, July 15, for a visit to the Thyme Garden family farm near Alsea. After a guided tour, the group will settle down for a lunch under the fir trees. The menu changes depending on what’s in season, but typically includes mixed local salad greens with edible flowers, herb-infused beverages, homemade herbal breads, grilled seafood and dessert. The trip will also include a visit to Leaping Lamb Farm,

where the owners raise sheep and chickens alongside vegetable and flower gardens. Guests are welcome to join in and lend a hand around the farm collecting eggs, feeding the animals, gardening and brushing Paco, the miniature Sicilian donkey. The bus will depart at 9:30 am from the Newport 60+Activity Center, 20 SE 2nd Street, and return at about 5 pm. The cost is $42.50 per person. For more information or to reserve a spot, drop by the center or call 541-265-9617.

BEE SERIOUS

ad you been by Mombetsu Sister City Park in Newport in recent weeks, you might have noticed a small swarm of bees on the fly. And you might have noticed, too, in hot pursuit, a man with a pair of tree clippers and a pick up truck. And while the scene played out quietly, it was in fact quite the moment of high drama. A moment even, you might say, of do or die. What I know about bees amounts to getting stung pretty much every summer as I trekked across my backyard, and learning through the hub’s experience not to leave a can of soda outside in the summer, lest you take a sip find an angry bee inside your mouth. Ouch. That experience aside, I would not have thought beekeeping a particularly exciting vocation. Then I sat down with beekeeper Rowan Lehrman. Not exciting? Seriously, this could almost be the plotline for a Bond flick, or as Rowan says, “Totally Game of Thrones.” Rowan, who is also chef extraordinaire at the Tables of Content restaurant at Sylvia Beach Hotel, knew she wanted to be a beekeeper since she was a child. This is her fourth year nurutring a colony. Her days frequently begin with a quiet check on the hive. “Bees are not, for lack of a better word, morning people,” she says. “They like to wake up very leisurely and stretch; if it is a sunny day, sunbathe a little before they go about their business and start their work. I just try to gauge their mood. I know that sounds funny, but they are emotional creatures. I would definitely sense what sort of mood they were in before I went any further.” So, how exactly does one gauge a bee’s mood? “I actually sing to them,” Rowan says. “You can infer a little bit about how they are feeling. If I were to go out there and sing something a little too spunky, and they are irritated, they will bonk you on the head.” Rowan prefers to do her inspections barehanded and without the beekeeper suit, but first she visits with the bee smoker. “People say it soothes the bees and calms them,” she says. “I kind of use it more as a door knocker. ‘Hey, I’m going to come visit you.’” On her inspections, she’s looking for all kinds of things. For one, she hopes to see a few drones — the males. “Their only use is reproductive,” she says.

(Ahem.) “People think the beehives are full of both genders, but really there are just a few men and they just sit around on the couch and do nothing.” She’s also looking for bee babies, pollen and honey stores, and other signs of the colony’s health. “You never know what is going on inside,” she said. “You could see the most wonderful thing or you could see the most terrible thing. I lost a hive to disease and it was very tragic. There was a lot of crying that night.” Most recently, she was looking for the kind of behavior that might suggest the bees were plotting to swarm. “That’s how bees reproduce in the wild,” she said. “Their colony literally splits almost in half. The queen takes off with half the workers and hopefully has laid an egg, her daughter, who will stay at the old colony and will be raised to be the queen. The old queen goes off to establish a new colony. In theory, the bees will double that way. But it is tricky stuff.” On this particular inspection, Rowan said, “There was no sign of it at all, they are very

sneaky.” And then just like that, unbeknownst to Rowan, who was at work, they were gone. Rowan’s beau, Devon, found the bees at the park where they had set up in the branches of a tree. Devon backed his pick up to the tree so he could get some height and carefully clipped the branch. Then he took the bees home and put them in the cardboard box the hive originally came in. “It was very smart of him to do that,” Rowan said. “You can’t put them back in the old hive because in theory there would be a new queen. She would be battling her own daughter. So, he put them in a new box. If we’d lost them, I would have lost half my bees.” Since then, Rowan has named the queens. “I call that one Pandora,” she says. “Because she is trouble.” Lori Tobias covered the coast for The Oregonian for nine years.

Chalk a block

with Lincoln City’s sidewalk chalk art challenge Artists of all ages are being invited to dust off their chalk skills for the second annual Lincoln City Chalk Art Competition, which takes place on Saturday, July 11, at the Lincoln City Cultural Center. Entitled “Chalk it up to 50 Years!” in honor of the city’s 50th birthday, the event will see the sidewalks surrounding the center transformed into blank slates for artistic creations for the young and the young-atheart. “This event allows children, families and artists of all skill levels to come together in a creative and communal way to share in the joy of making art outside,” said Sam Randall, the center’s program coordinator. “Also, this year’s theme and special category

celebrating Lincoln City’s 50th Anniversary puts a local spin on the competition and educates our tourist population as well.” The day will start with a free workshop from a professional chalk art instructor from 9 am to 11 am. The chalk art competition will run from 11 am to 3 pm, with categories for artists aged six and under; seven to 11; 12 to 17; and 18 and older. Awards and prizes will be given for age categories as well as a grand prize of $50 for art depicting and celebrating Lincoln City’s 50th anniversary. Artists should arrive by 10:45 am for registration and square assignment. Priority placement will be given to early registrants. Judging will be held

at 3 pm and prizes awarded immediately after. Vendor booths will be set up on the lawn, selling food and drinks and promoting local children’s programs. Registration for the sidewalk chalk art competition is $5 for kids aged six and under and $10 for entrants aged seven and up and includes a sidewalk square and box of chalk. Registration forms can be picked up at the cultural center or printed from its website, www.lincolncity-culturalcenter. org. To volunteer to help out, contact Randall at 541-9949994 or sam@lincolncityculturalcenter.org. The Lincoln City Cultural Center is located at 540 NE Hwy. 101.

A chance to hang with the artists There’s nothing unusual about artists at the Oregon Coast drawing their inspiration from the sea and the sky. What is unusual is when a flock of artists take over a gallery in order to showcase their work just the way they want. The Artists’ Co-op Gallery in Lincoln City is one such place, owned and run by local artists who put all hands on deck every three months to give the place a fresh look. On Friday, July 10, the gallery will unveil its latest displays, featuring new work from all its members, including the debut of vibrant, beachy watercolors by Florence-based painter Carole Hillsbery. The public reception will also showcase a new line of imaginative sculptures from metal artist Tim Power as well as precise recreations of sea life and a new line of driftwood furniture from bronze sculptor Bill Hunt. Guests will get to enjoy light refreshments as they admire jewelry, paintings, textiles, metal sculpture, photography, glass, ceramics, vinyl art and more.

Blue shell necklace by Beth Anderson

The reception will run from 5 to 7 pm at the gallery, 620 NE Hwy. 101. Representatives from the neighboring Artists’ Studio Association will be on hand to provide information about upcoming summer classes and artwork available for purchase. And there will be still more art on display across 6th Avenue, where the Lincoln City Cultural Center’s Chessman Gallery will host the opening reception for its annual Summer Members’ Show.

In rust we trust

ARE YOU REDDY? The Lincoln City Cultural Center’s Chessman Gallery is on red alert this weekend, as cultural center supporters bring in colorful, creative, wacky, wonderful art of all types for this year’s Summer Members’ Show. Gallery director Krista Eddy selected “RED” as this year’s theme and challenged members to respond in any spicy red way that they choose. “This show is sure to be hot, fun and sizzling,” she said. “You will find everything from jewelry to burl wood tables, from paintings to lamps made with found metal items and from sculpture to botanical fused glass. Not to mention all the magical items in between.” The show will kick off with a public reception from 5 to 7 pm on Friday, July 10, with a chance to meet with the artists while enjoying wine and appetizers. The show will remain on display through Monday, Aug. 10. The members’ show is a longstanding tradition passed

down from the cultural center’s parent nonprofit, the 4C’s. As well as being a testament to the talent of local artists, it allows the cultural center to show how much it appreciates it members. As part of the exhibit, the cultural center will be putting on a free printmaking workshop for kids of all ages on Saturday and Sunday, July

25 and 26. Participants can drop by any time between 1 and 3 pm both days to view the show and then explore their own creativity by making prints of their own. All materials are provided. The cultural center is located at 540 NE Hwy. 101. For more information, call 541-994-9994 or go to lincolncity-culturalcenter.org.

The unexpected beauty of decay, corrosion and neglect will be on show throughout July at the Newport Visual Arts Center in “Transfigurations,” a new solo exhibit from Portland artist James Honzik. The exhibit features experimental portrait photography from Honzik’s ongoing series “Transfigurations” as well as landscape photography from his new series “Storm of Roses.” Honzik will talk about his work at a public reception for the exhibit on Friday, July 10, from 5 to 7 pm in the visual arts center’s Upstairs Gallery. A photographer, poet and artist, Honzik graduated from the University of Wisconsin and then studied poetry under John Yau, Bernadette Meyer and David Trinidad at the Poetry Project at St. Mark’s Church, the heart of poetry in New York City, and with Charles Bernstein at the New School. He moved to Portland 14 years ago and landed a job as a commercial photographer, taking more than 50,000 photographs of buildings in cities all over the Pacific Northwest in a single year. More recently, his poetry and photography have merged. “Lichen, water, stone, corrosion, decay, and the faces of my friends have become the vocabulary of a visual poetry,” he said. “Transfigurations,” represents a dynamic collage of portrait and landscape photography. In one image, “Crown of Rust, Dress of Ashes,” the model wears a dress made from an image of layered volcanic ash found on the side of Mt. Hood. “Her crown is an image of one of the most beautiful decayed objects I have ever

“Transfiguration #5: The Music Forbids Deep Silence” by James Honzik

seen,” Honzik said, “a sheet metal door, warped and burned in a fire, exposed to the elements, and corroded.” Honzik’s favorite philosopher is Baruch Spinoza, whom he quotes in his artist statement: “In so

far as the mind sees things in their eternal aspect, it participates in eternity.” “When I am ready, I analyze my images. I take my best portraits, and my best textural photos, and combine them digitally,” Honzik said. “I go through hundreds of pairs of images, exploring the complex combinatorial space, following my own heuristic devices and intuitions until, as if it had dropped out of the sky, a new piece appears in front of me.” “Transfigurations,” hosted by the Oregon Coast Council for the Arts, will run through Aug. 1 in the Upstairs Gallery of the center, located at 777 NW Beach Drive, available to view noon to 4 pm, Tuesday to Saturday.

Art that sticks with you

The Oregon Coast Council for the Arts leaves no stone unturned in its quest to bring the very best in coastal art to the Newport Visual Arts Center. That makes it a perfect match for Brookings artist Thomas Sheets, who leaves no stone unturned when creating his artwork — and gives the driftwood a fair going over, too. Sheets’ environmental assemblage exhibit, “Sticks & Stone,” will open with a public reception from 5 to 7 pm on Friday, July 10, with a talk from

the artist at 6 pm. A completely self-taught artist, Sheets grew up in the Bay Area and moved to the southern Oregon Coast eight years ago. After experimenting as an artist with oils, watercolors, ceramics, photography and music, Sheets fell into environmental assemblage almost by accident. While beach combing on the Oregon Coast, he stumbled upon pieces of driftwood and naturally polished stones intertwined in

the ever-changing patterns of the water-washed sand. “Environmental assemblage is the perfect medium to express and reflect my various moods,” he said. “It was almost an epiphany for me.” Each of Sheets’ works tells its own story. Some are soft and smooth, others are jagged and rough in violent conflict. Each stick or stone adds its own personality or accent, its own highlight to each assemblage. Sheets can spend months traveling the Oregon coastline,

regardless of the weather, to find the perfect pieces for his works. He hikes down to hidden beaches and fights the crashing surf for the perfect piece before struggling to carry his load up the rocky bluffs back to his studio. Then comes the sorting, selecting, polishing, arranging and rearranging, until the final vision is realized. Keeping as close as possible to the original condition of the wood, Sheets combines the small pieces with sea glass, wave-washed stones, iron pyrite and other minerals. Some have copper wire and braided steel wire interwoven into the composed patterns and bas-relief compositions. The exhibit is on display in the Coastal Oregon Visual Artist Showcase at the visual arts center, 777 NW Beach Drive. It will be available to view through Aug. 30, from noon to 4 pm, Tuesday to Saturday.

Sparkle in the spotlight

Double header

Art with serious sparkle is on display at Newport’s Yaquina Art Association Gallery in a Spotlight Show from coastal jeweler Linda Cline. Cline started making beaded jewelry 15 years ago as a hobby and has since grown her business into almost a full-time career designing and making all kinds of jewels. “I’m a bling person,” she said, “and I love the marriage of gemstones or lampwork glass with Swarovski crystals.” Working mainly in sterling silver and 14k gold, Cline makes everything from earrings to sets of necklaces and bracelets, anklets, watches and stretchy bracelets for both children and adults. The Spotlight Show will run through July 17 at the gallery, 789 NW Beach Drive, available to view daily from 11 am to 5 pm.

Artists Catherine Hingson and Sherrie Powell will share a Spotlight Show at Newport’s Yaquina Art Association Gallery from July 11 through July 24, presenting a mixture of photography, acrylics and watercolors. Sherrie Powell began her journey in photography while assisting her father in his photography business and working in his darkroom. Now, she captures images and processes them in a digital lightroom. “Photography has undergone dramatic changes since the introduction of digital technology,” she said. “Digital photography allows for much more creativity. It has opened up a whole new world of artistic expression.” Her photographs have earned numerous awards and have been accepted into international competition. The most recent award was “Best

“Oil Cans” by Sherrie Powell

of Show” at the Gresham Visual Arts Gallery. Most of her photographs are taken in and around the Pacific Northwest. Catherine Hingson is a Northwest native, who first came to Newport in 1992. She has been painting for more than 25 years and specializes in bold Northwest scenes, often depicting marine subjects. She teaches art classes locally and there are still spaces available in her upcoming class “Beachscapes,” a one-day watercolor/acrylic workshop that runs from 1 to 4 pm on Tuesday, July 28, at the Artists’ Studio Association in Lincoln City. The cost is $20 plus supplies. For more information, call 503-545-9339. The Yaquina Art Association Gallery from is open daily from 11 am to 5 pm at 789 NW Beach Drive in Newport.

*Hɢ ʃȱɏ ɬ ʙ ɂHɡ July on the Oregon Coast is a berry special time

B

Story & photos by Gretchen Ammerman For the TODAY

lueberry fans, start your engines; Gibson Farms U-Pick berries are plumped and ready to harvest. This year’s picking season will open on Thursday, July 9, and is set to last longer than last summer’s. “We were open nine days last year,” said Lorissa Fujishin, who manages the farm with husband Alin. “This year we are planning to stay open two weeks.” Last year’s season had been limited to the early-ripening varies because when the later-ripening varieties become ready to pick, there was just too much to harvest manually so the couple switched over to machine picking. “This year we have enough people to run both the u-pick and machine harvesting at the same time,” Lorissa said. “That helps us to extend our season.” Another change this year is splitting the check-in and checkout parts of the enterprise. People arriving will no longer have to wait to get their supplies while others weigh and pay, which will hopefully help streamline the process. The roots of the Gibson Farms are deep, and represent the rapidly shrinking phenomenon of the true family farm; Lorissa is the granddaughter of Paul Gibson, who purchased the property in the 1940s, and planted acres of blueberry bushes on it in two phases; eight acres in 1948 and another eight in 1950. The plants he put in the ground are still producing and comprise the bulk of the berry bushes on the farm. Roughly four more acres were planted in the ’80s by the next generation, Lorissa’s parents, Amy

Alin Fujishin

Lorissa Fujishin

and Wiley Gibson. “My parents just retired formally last year, and my husband and I are now managing the farm,” Lorissa said. “Our family history in this area goes back even farther, though; my great-grandpa actually helped build the railroad between Toledo and Eddyville.” Although well aware that their customers may be biased, Lorissa and Alin are willing to agree that the Gibson Farms berries have a certain something. “The people the come to our fields say our berries are the best,” Alin said. “We don’t know if that’s true or not, but we don’t argue. We have a more moist and cool climate than most blueberry growers which lets the berries ripen more slowly, and might contribute to their sweetness.” The age of the plants might also contribute to the Gibson Farms Blueberries’ terroir. “They haven’t done studies on blueberries the way they have wine grapes,” Alin said. “But the fruit on older grape plants are sweeter, and it makes sense that would be true for blueberries as well.” Regardless of the reason, Gibson

Farms blueberries have a loyal fan base, which the Fujishins appreciate, even though it makes opening day a bit hectic. “People sometimes have to wait a few hours before they can start picking on opening day because we have so many people show up,” Lorissa said. “We recommend that people wait if they can; we have so many plants that we are still putting people on unpicked plants during the whole U-pick period. It also really helps us out if people pick each bush clean before moving on to the next.” Adding to charm to the farm are the metal buckets that guests can use when harvesting, although people need to provide their own form of transport to get their berries home. “When the fields were planted in the ’40s there was no mechanical harvesting,” Lorissa said. “Those metal buckets are what everyone used. Some of them have been here since my Grandpa’s time and a few have names on them from pickers from the ’70s.” The buckets are an example of the policy that has worked so well for the farm of respecting the past while

facing the future. “Each generation has addressed different challenges,” Alin said. “For us it’s the increased number of people that want to come out for the U-Pick.” In addition to splitting up the check in and weighing out station, the couple plans to do some strategic transplanting to enable more parking. “The original setup of the farm happened in the ’40s,” Lorissa said. “So we need to update some things, but it’s very important to us that we keep the core sensibilities of my grandparents.” Gibson Farms is located on Hwy 229 just north of Siletz. U-pick hours are 8 am to 7 pm Monday to Friday, and 8 am to 5 pm on Saturday, closed Sunday. Price per pound for 2015 is $1.80. For more information, check the Gibson Farms Facebook page, or email lo.fujishin@gmail.com.

No one likes a show off. Except at fair time, when showing what you’ve got is as much a part of the proceedings as cotton candy and carnival rides. And organizers of the revamped Lincoln County Fair are giving people plenty of chances to flaunt everything from photography to baking to vegetables, with more than 125 Open Class categories available, alongside a similar number for animals and livestock. Todd Williver, program coordinator with the Oregon State University Extension Service, which took over managing the fair at the beginning of this year, said the wide range of categories is in keeping with the event’s “Celebrate Lincoln County” theme. “Open Class is an opportunity for all Lincoln County residents to demonstrate their unique talents and skills in everything from food preservation to horticulture to art, photography and animals,” he said. “We hope to showcase many, many more open class exhibits at the New Lincoln County Fair.” Exhibits will be awarded 1st- through 4th-place ribbons as well as champion and reserve champion in categories with items deemed worthy by the judges. Premiums will be paid to first- through third-place ranging from $8 to $2, with special community sponsored awards also available. The eight static departments include agriculture; baked goods; food preservation; floral/ horticulture; photography; table setting; textiles; and arts, crafts and hobbies — each of which includes several subclasses and specific youth classes. The animal departments include beef

and dairy cattle, dairy goats, sheep, cavies, rabbits and poultry. Animal exhibitors must register by July 20, with static participants encouraged to register by the same deadline. Entry fees are $5 per animal or $10 for three. For static exhibits, the entry fee is $5 for up to five

categories. Static exhibits will be received for judging on Tuesday, Aug. 11, and judged the following day. Animals will move into the barn on Thursday, Aug. 13, with judging to occur throughout the fair. The Exhibitor Handbook includes all guidelines and rules for entering as well as details about entering static items and animals. Copies are available on the fair’s website and can be purchased for $2 at the OSU Extension Office, 1211 SE Bay Blvd., Newport. For more information, go to www.

Every hero has a story West African storyteller Habiba Addo will perform at libraries throughout Lincoln County this week as part of the “Every Hero Has a Story” summer reading program. A native of Ghana, Addo offers an interactive, multicultural performance with authentic West African costume, spiced with singing and movements. Her stories will encourage the audience to explore their own world as well as those far, far away. Addo performs stories from the African continent and its diaspora to inspire, entertain and provoke thought. She lives her art through continuous study and practice — combining her knowledge and deep appreciation for these cultures with her natural talent for storytelling and

prodigious vocal abilities. Addo teaches and performs with infectious joy and adept technical accuracy. She has performed and taught dance, storytelling and theater through companies such as Miracle Theater, Northwest Afrikan American Ballet and Portland State University. On Thursday, July 15, Addo will perform at 10 am at Waldport Public Library, 460 NW Hemlock Street; 1 pm at Newport Public Library, 35 NW Nye Street; and at 6:30 pm at Lincoln City’s Driftwood Public Library, 801 SW Hwy. 101. On Thursday, July 16, she will perform at 11 am at Toledo Public Library, 173 NW 7th Street; and at 1 pm at Siletz Public Library, 255 S. Gaither Street.

GO WILD AT THE AQUARIUM For the beginner, the prospect of creating a delicious snack from a cluster of rock-hard, slimy shelled mussels can be a daunting one. The same can be said for other coastal foraging fare like clams, seaweed, forest berries and sorrel. But help is at hand in the form of the Edible Ocean Family Camp Out at Newport’s Oregon Coast

Aquarium on Saturday and Sunday, July 25 and 26. This food-centric adventure invites eaters ages eight and older to explore wild-sourced summer delicacies, walking them through the forage-to-fork process, from regulations to gathering to food preparation. Campers can expect to get their fingers muddy while

clamming, test their taste buds with edible seaweeds and foray through coastal forests for edible plants. This overnight adventure includes admission to the aquarium, camping accommodations at Beverly Beach State Park and all meals. The cost is $55 for kids aged eight to 17 and $70 for adults aged 18 and older, with discounts

available for aquarium members. To learn more about Edible Ocean Family Camp Out and download reservation forms, go to bit. ly/edibleocean. To learn more about the Oregon Coast Aquarium’s exhibits, conservation and education programs call 541- 867-FISH or go to aquarium.org.

Art camp seeks signups The Bay City Arts Center will host a week-long Krafty Kidz art camp from August 24 to 28, giving kids aged 10 to 14 the chance to create a wide array of artwork. The camp runs from 10 am

to 2 pm, Monday to Friday. Tuition is $50 for the week and includes lunch. Some scholarships are available. For more information or to register, call Leeauna at 503377-9620

Set your watch for this one Not since Gutenberg made the final adjustments to his new fangled contraption in 1440 has the world awaited the arrival of the printed word with such expectation as that which surrounds “Go Set a Watchman,” the new novel from Harper Lee. The anticipation is understandable. Lee, now aged 89, has not published a word since the 1960 release of “To Kill a Mockingbird,” which went on to win the Pulitzer Prize and remains one of the most widely read and beloved books of all time. To mark the launch of “Go Set a Watchman,” Lincoln City’s Driftwood Public Library will host a free, all-ages showing of the 1962 film version of “To Kill a Mockingbird” on Tuesday, July 14. The movie won Oscars for star Gregory Peck and

Harper Lee, then and now

screenwriter Horton Foote, and also features Robert Duvall in one of his earliest screen roles. A bookseller from Bob’s Beach Books will be on site with copies of “Go Set a Watchman” for sale, and light refreshments will be served during the film. Although reportedly written before “To Kill a Mockingbird,” “Go Set a Watchman” is set

20 years after the events of the classic tale. It follows Jean Louise Finch (aka “Scout”) as she returns home to Maycomb to visit her father, Atticus Finch. The book tells Scout’s story as she struggles with personal and political issues involving Atticus, society and the small Alabama town that shaped her. The screening will begin at

5:30 pm at the library, located on the second floor of 801 SW Hwy. 101. Door prize drawings will be held after the film. For more information, call 541-996-2277 or go to www. driftwoodlib.org.

SIGNS OF (PAST) TIMES With its balmy summer evenings, compact Main Street and tranquil waterfront, Toledo is an ideal place for a stroll. And now, any stroll can quickly turn into a guided tour, thanks to newly installed historical signage throughout the five-block Main Street downtown district. Designed by local artist Becky Miller, the six easel-style interpretive signs give information and show old photos of the area. Toledo’s downtown was developed beginning in the 1870s, with the original business district built along the waterfront of Depot Slough. Gradually, businesses moved up to Main Street, so that by the time the waterfront structures burned in the fire of 1937, the town’s new downtown was already established. The buildings of Main

Street date from 1901 to 2000, with the largest number built in the 1920s when the Pacific Spruce Mill came online, bringing many jobs to the area. The interpretive signs show how the buildings originally looked and include several that are no longer standing, including the original Lincoln County Courthouse.

The signs are a project of Toledo History Center, a local museum, with assistance from the City of Toledo and the Lincoln County Historical Society. Funding was provided by grants from the Siletz Tribe, Oregon Parks and Recreation Department and Lincoln County Cultural Coalition. There is also a printed

brochure for the historic walk, available at a kiosk outside of City Hall, at Toledo History Center and at some local businesses. Walkers following the downtown tour will also get to admire decorative flower displays and public art in the form of sculpted benches. Meanwhile, more information about the area is available from the Toledo History Center and Yaquina Pacific Railroad Historical Center on “A” Street, one block west of Main. In addition to the weekly street market on Main Street each Thursday, the town is gearing up for several summer events, starting with the Toledo Summer Festival from July 24 to 26. The Wooden Boat Show will follow on August 15 and 16, with the Toledo Art Walk taking place on Labor Day Weekend.

Small town — big sound A celebration of small town America will grace the stage of the Lincoln City Cultural Center on Sunday, July 12, when Scott Kirby presents “Main Street Souvenirs,” a multimedia stage performance featuring live piano music, a spoken narrative and a video presentation. The music in the first half will span 150 years of Americana, including Scott Joplin, Stephen Foster and John Philip Sousa, and continuing up to the present. The second half will feature Kirby’s original compositions, paintings, photography, literary excerpts and a narrative — all exploring historical and visionary dimensions of the American Great Plains and Prairies. This visual part of the program will accompany both the narrative and the music throughout, consisting of Kirby’s original artwork, his video footage, his photography and archival photos. The narrative, also written by Kirby, reflects a thematic progression, weaving different concepts about small town American life together with musical, visual and literary extracts. A native of Ohio, Kirby began his study of music at the age of six, and continued formal piano instruction for 17 years, working with Robert Howat of Wittenberg University of Ohio, and Sylvia Zaremba at the Ohio State University. After obtaining an English degree from Ohio State University, Kirby moved to New Orleans and began his professional music career as a street performer. In the following four years, he recorded the complete rags of Scott Joplin and made his debut at all of the

major ragtime festivals in the United States, as well as festivals in Belgium, France, Norway, New Zealand and Hungary. Kirby has served as musical director of the Scott Joplin Ragtime Festival in Sedalia, Missouri, and of the Rocky Mountain Ragtime and American Music Festival in Boulder, Colorado, as well as director of the San Juan Islands Ragtime Institute. His resume includes an appearance at the Smithsonian Institute in Washington D.C. and a segment on CBS News Sunday Morning with Charles Osgood in 1998, Osgood agreed that “… Critics call Scott Kirby one of the best interpreters of ragtime music on the scene today.” Kirby’s artistic passion grew to include to visual art, and in 2005, while living in France, he completed

75 paintings and 28 piano compositions, including “The Prairie Devotionals,” The paintings, belonging to a set entitled “Visions of the Great Plains,” and the new musical works set the groundwork for “Main Street Souvenirs.” Kirby now lives in Boulder, Colorado and divides his time between composing, painting,

performing and teaching. “Main Street Souvenirs” will start at 7 pm in the auditorium of the center at 540 NE Hwy. 101, with doors opening at 6:30 pm. Beer, wine, sodas and sweet treats will be sold inside. Tickets, $14 in advance rising to $16 on the door, are available at www.lincolncityculturalcenter.org or by calling 541-994-9994.

Grammy Awardwinning Americana duo Eric Tingstad and Nancy Rumbel will return to Tillamook County on Sunday, July 12, for a fund-raiser concert at Tillamook’s Church of the Nazarene. The duo, who have returned often since their first Tillamook County concert in 1995, bring to the stage a rare combination of talent, virtuoso musicianship and an entertaining style. Having played at all manner of venues, from Carnegie Hall to national parks, Tingstad and Rumbel are wellknown for their beautiful original compositions and innovative treatments of popular American standards. The pair also enjoy

performing musical styles from around the world. A piece featuring Spanish or Caribbean rhythms might be followed by an elegant interpretation of a classic Chinese lullaby or an Irish folk song. Sunday’s concert will begin at 2 pm at the church, 2611 3rd Street. Advance tickets, $15 for adults and $10 for students, are available by calling 503-3924581.

SHORE TO BE A HIT The Yachats Music Festival is back

By Barbara B. Covell For the TODAY

World-class musicians will arrive at the Oregon Coast this weekend for the 35th annual Yachats Music Festival, which packs four concerts into three days. With performances taking place in the Yachats Community Presbyterian Church, the festival offers the Central Coast community an intimacy rarely found with musicians and vocalists of distinction. Each artist attends the entire three days, performing individually and in ensemble repertoires. It is a time of networking and relaxation for the artists and audience members, all to enjoy the beauty and wonder of the Yachats environment. In the words of festival founder, Reverend Dr. W. Hazaiah Williams, “It is a time for friendly sharing.” The idea for the Yachats Music Festival was born in 1981, when a group of friends gathered for an evening of spirited conversation, gentle humor and philosophical discourse. By sunset, plans had been made for an annual classical arts festival to be hosted by the Yachats community. This had long been the dream for Williams, a Berkeley impresario and advocate for racial, ethnic and cultural diversity in artistic expression. A pioneer in developing unique program content for national concert performances, Williams was a master in combining varied instrumental, vocal and dance art forms for audience enjoyment. He believed the relationship between artists and audience was a fusion, creating cohesion

If you go The festival takes place at the Yachats Community Presbyterian Church, 360 West 7th Street. Performances begin Friday, July 10, at 8 pm; Saturday, July 11, at 8 pm; and Sunday, July 12, at 2 pm and 8 pm. Tickets are $20 per concert for general admission, with Member and Patron packages available for $85 and $140. Patron packages include attendance at four daytime seminars presented by chosen artists. Tickets are available online at www. brownpapertickets.com/event/1295037 or by calling the Adobe Resort at 541-547-3530 or the Yachats Visitors Center at 541-547-3530 or sense of community in the common experience. His goal was to develop concert content that brought audiences and artists together experiencing music in new ways. He was the first African American presenter of classical music in the US, defying all traditions through racial diversity and inclusivity in his performing musicians and audience members alike.

Williams was a published author, international speaker, professor and lifelong interdenominational pastor of the Berkeley-based Church For Today. He believed that worship and the religious experience could be found in many places outside of the formal church, with arts being a natural manifestation. Williams went on to found

the Berkeley non-profit Four Seasons Arts, which organizes the annual festival program. While many of the artists have performed annually for repeated years, the spirit of mutual support encourages new performers at every festival. “Musicians not only anticipate seeing each other again and welcome the new artists, but are excited to perform different works of music,” said Four Seasons President Kay Adams. “These artists provide a model of community for our world.” Performances take place in the Yachats Community Presbyterian Church, which provides a venue of reverence and intimacy for both audience and performers. Audience members benefit from a close physical proximity to the musicians and vocalists that rock the sanctuary with crystal clear

acoustics. Adams hopes the festival will continue to attract younger audiences and is supportive of sponsorship for youth groups. Four Seasons Arts has a history of success in providing opportunities for Bay Area youth to attend classical music concerts; they support these options for local Lincoln County youth. This year’s festival includes a roster of 21 artists, including vocalists, pianists, viola, violins, cello, clarinet, flute, Celtic harp, guzheng and guqin. Most of the repertoire is classical but frequently augmented with jazz, Latin, spiritual, flamenco and Broadway melodies. Returning favorites include virtuoso vocalists Rafael LeBron, IIya Martinez, Autris Paige, Anthony Turner, Tom Buckner and Kimberly Jones. Powerhouse pianist Leon Bates

is featured early on Friday evening’s program with his rendition of Beethoven’s Sonata in F Major, Op.10, No. 2 (III. Presto) Master pianists Chiao-Wen Cheng, Gerry Hecht, Dennis Helmrich, Joseph Kubera and Jeongeun Yom also return to this year’s festival, contributing solo and ensemble performances. Portia Diwa gives a riveting recital on Celtic harp, David Wong presents world music selections on guzheng and guqin, engaging audiences of all ages. Instrumentalists Ayn Balija, viola; Marco Granados, flute; Elaine Kreston, cello; Tom Rose, clarinet; David Burnett and Anyango YarboDavenport, violins round out the entertainment profile. A first-time performer at this year’s festival is pianist Betty Woo, an accomplished international concert artist and academic. She holds a D.M.A. degree from Stanford University and is currently on the faculty of Holy Names University in Oakland and University of California, Berkeley.

Thar she blows! Tall tails of the Oregon Coast revealed in college workshop

H

By Nancy Steinberg For the TODAY

ow would you like to take a short class consisting almost solely of the most fun parts of school — Show & Tell and field trips? What if the class focused on local whales, dolphins, sea lions and other marine mammals? Awesome, right? Just such an opportunity is being offered by Oregon Coast Community College, where local naturalist John Ford will lead a twoday workshop on marine mammals with a focus on local species. The class, to be held at the college’s Lincoln City campus, will consist of a day of lectures and hands-on exploration of whale artifacts, followed two days later by a field trip to find some of the best shore-based marine mammal watching spots in Lincoln County to see the animals themselves, if conditions cooperate. Ford is a wealth of knowledge on the topic, having spent a decade leading Road Scholar tours focused on coastal subjects, marine mammals in particular. He also volunteers with the Marine Mammal Stranding Network, serving “on call” to assist in investigating strandings of live and dead marine mammals on the Central Coast. He will impart fascinating insider information about the biology, ecology and local natural history of these animals, and help you find them without having to leave shore. “The class is for people who don’t know anything about marine mammals, or for those who have some information already and would like to expand on their knowledge,” Ford said. “It will also give locals the opportunity to pass on correct information to visitors.” Do you know how to tell a seal from a sea lion or a grey whale from a humpback? The classroom day of the workshop will help you become an expert, imparting information

John Ford

A whale spotted from shore on a Ford-inspired trip to Rocky Creek State Park • TODAY photo

about common, and not-so-common, Oregon marine mammals. Using a slide show and artifacts like baleen samples and bones, Ford will discuss the biology and ecology of these behemoths and provide information about the identification of individual grey and humpback whales based on natural and man-made markings such as boat scars on their bodies and tails, a survey method in use by scientists for decades. Ford is also a very experienced photographer and will teach workshop participants the tricks of taking great marine mammal photos. Examining the artifacts, which Ford borrows from the stranding network and the educators at the Hatfield Marine Science Center, is a particular thrill for most people. “These are items that most people only ever see behind glass in a museum,” Ford explained. “Handling them really highlights how we as mammals are connected to these animals — we have the same bone structure, the same organs.” The second day of the workshop will be a tremendous treat: a field

trip to sites in Lincoln County where participants can see whales right from shore, sometimes extremely close. Ford’s tour will show participants trails and access points that are off the beaten path, but always with an emphasis on safety. Ford is careful to point out that the behavior of wild animals cannot be predicted or controlled, so sightings will be subject to weather and whale behavior. “This is the real world, not Sea World. There is no set feeding time,” Ford said. “It’s important to go looking for the whales with low expectations, and then if we see them, it makes for a fabulous experience.” He adds that in addition to weather and the whims of whales, patience is an equally important ingredient in shorebased whale watching. “You can’t just do a Chevy Chase ‘Vacation’ drive-by of the Grand Canyon,” Ford said. “When you return to these sites, you might want to plan a picnic with friends and family and enjoy being with people as well as with the whales.” Ford has had a range of spectacular

shore-based whale watching experiences in Oregon, and he is eager to teach others how to have those encounters. “I’ve seen whales so close to shore that I’ve felt the spray from their spout blow back onto me,” he said. Participants will come away with a deeper knowledge of these charismatic animals as well as knowing where to try to find them. The next time you host visitors to the Oregon Coast, you could very well offer your guests — and yourself — the experience of a lifetime. John Ford’s Whales & Marine Mammals workshop will start with a classroom session from 1 to 4 pm on Tuesday, July 14, followed by the Thursday, July 16 field trip. The classroom instruction will take place at OCCC’s Lincoln City campus, 3788 SE High School Drive, with the meeting place for the field trip to be announced. The cost of the two-day workshop is $30. To register, call 541-994-4166 or email your name and phone number to shirley.hill@occc. cc.or.us by noon on Monday, July 13.

LINCOLN CITY FARMERS & CRAFTERS

At the Newport Bayfront By Nancy Steinberg For the TODAY

It’s one thing to talk the talk, it’s something else entirely to Shop the Dock, and seafood fans will get the chance to do both this Friday, July 10, when the OSU Sea Grant Extension Service of Lincoln County begins its second year of dock walking tours. The free tours take customers to the port docks and introduce them to some of the local fishermen who land the catches that end up on our plates. Participants will be shown the ropes: where to go on the docks, which boats participate in direct sales, how to choose the best fish, how to pay and more. “People feel intimidated about walking on the working docks,” said Ruby Moon, the fisheries extension agent who runs the tours. “They wonder if the docks are private or off-limits, which

Save the date Friday, July 10 Thursday, July 16 Wednesday, July 22 Tuesday, July 28 Meet at noon on Port Dock 5 on the bayfront. Tours are free. For more information, call Ruby Moon at 541-5746534.

they’re not. They also have questions about how to tell if the fish is fresh and whether they’re getting a good deal. We will address all of these questions on the tours.” Tours will go where the fish is, but will focus on the three commercial Port Docks (Port Docks 3, 5 and 7) where the Newport commercial fishing fleet ties up. Tips covered on the tour will range from identifying

the freshest fish to what to bring to the dock with you (cash — the only form of payment accepted by most boats — and maybe ice and a cooler if you’re not going right home). The tours will focus on albacore tuna, which will likely be available for all tours, but other species will be available throughout the summer as well, including halibut, salmon, lingcod and crab. Moon said meeting the person who caught your dinner ties into the growing interest consumers have in knowing about where their food comes from. She stressed that the best part of the tours is chatting with the fishermen, who are happy to answer any and all questions about their industry. “Fishermen are the last of the wild hunters,” Moon said. “They have lots of stories to tell and they love to tell them.”

The veg is out Newport Farmers Market celebrates a new location and a bumper crop Story & photos by Gretchen Ammerman • For the TODAY

get out! It’s hard to please everyone, but when it comes to location, the Newport Farmers Market might just have nailed it with the latest move to Angle Street and Highway 101, right next to the Lincoln County Courthouse. “It’s got great parking, it’s centrally located, it’s easy for the vendors to load and unload, and it’s much more handicap accessible than our last location,” said Market Manager Kelly Greer. “We’ve been getting some great feedback since we opened in May for the summer season.” The move was caused by the start of construction Newport’s new pool, whose parking lot will sit right where the market has been for the past few years. “People were worried that we would have to move far away from the center of town when we lost our last site,” said Katie McNeil of Pacific Sourdough, who has the double perspective of being both a market board member and vendor. “We’re grateful that the surrounding businesses have been so supportive. There is even a homeowner whose house is right in front of our new location, and she says she loves having the activity right outside her doorstep.” The new site has enabled the market to accommodate a larger number of booths, although they are still building up to having a full basket of produce as the growing season progresses. “July 11 will mark the first day we will have all of our produce vendors all on site,” said McNeal. “We have some new farms; even some from Lincoln County which is great. And this year because of the early season I wouldn’t be at all surprised if we get some corn soon.” Newport’s farmers market is one of the oldest in Oregon, vending locally grown produce and crafted wares since 1978. “Right now we are at about 35 percent farmers to crafters,” Greer said. “Although that ratio might be higher because we have farmers that have a few booths.” Mixed colorfully in with the farmers are booths selling such items as art, fresh flowers, nursery plants, jewelry, fresh pastries, honey, mushrooms, salsas, coffee and homemade dog treats. The new site has also enabled an even larger area for booths selling hot food. Among of the most popular products at the market are the artisan baked breads and pastries from Pacific Sourdough, as evidenced by the near

constant line in front of the booth during the market’s operating hours. “We are in our 22nd season,” said McNeil. “We’re the second oldest vendor here, behind only the Olalla Nursery. We are so grateful to our loyal clientele.” Not simply a popular vendor, Pacific Sourdough is also to thank for launching the Lemonade Project, a non-profit with the goal of both encouraging healthy eating and supporting local food producers. “We want to extend the buying power for people on the SNAP program who are making healthy purchasing choices for their families,” said McNeil. “We sell lemonade for $2.50, and it is squeezed right there in front of the customer and made with natural cane sugar,” McNeil said. “From the profits, we are able to give each SNAP card holder up to a $6 match each week, and that money goes back to the small farmers, so it’s a win all around.” The project raises about $4,000 per year, minus some operating costs. One of the largest costs, the sugar, is donated to the project by Pacific Sourdough. The juice makers are all volunteers; more are always welcome. Instead of closing at the end of each “season,” the Newport Farmers Market moves indoors to the Lincoln County Fairgrounds to weather out the winter. “We will go back to the fairgrounds in November,” Greer said. “We usually have about 30 to 40 vendors in the winter, and that number continues to grow.” But the winter now seems so far away, and the market will be outside in its new location for months. Organizers only ask for one thing from visitors to help ensure they can keep the summer market at this great new location. “We ask that people please do not use the parking lots for the Big 5 and the Antique Mall when shopping at the market,” said McNeil. “It’s easy to find the right place to park; just follow the signs to the great big parking lot at the courthouse.” The Newport Farmers Market is open every Saturday from 9 am to 1 pm on Angle Street and Highway 101.
