This week’s top five

GARIBALDI — Few events capture the spirit of the Oregon Coast quite as fully as the Garibaldi Crab Races. Low-tech, tongue ﬁrmly in cheek, and riotously entertaining, the event gives people of all ages the chance to achieve glory at the reins of a thoroughbred Dungeness. This weekend marks the 31st year since someone in Garibaldi thought to start counting and the races have gone from strength to strength ever since. See page 11

LINCOLN CITY — Mix the intense details of Hieronymus Bosch with the whimsy of Dr Seuss and you might come close to approaching the

style of Toledo artist Janet Runger. See her exhibit of assemblage art at the Chessman Gallery, opening with a public reception this Friday. See page 26 GLENEDEN BEACH — Blues don’t come much deeper than the hue painted by Ty Curtis and his band. See them put on a truly royal performance this Friday at Eden Hall. See page 21

LINCOLN CITY — Unspayed pets cause all sorts of trouble, so why not tackle the problem right at the sauce? The Spayghetti and No Balls dinner gives guests the chance to enjoy

from the editor a spaghetti feast prepared to Kip Ward’s legendary recipe while helping local cats and dogs get ﬁxed. See page 22

NEWPORT — If you feel like catching a wave or two on the Oregon Coast, you’ll fund surf shops in almost every town that will rent you a board and show you where to drop in. But back in the ’60s, life was a lot tougher for the saltwater pioneers that blazed the surfing trail. Get the scoop on those early days as surfing historians Scott and Sandy Blackman launch their new book “Oregon Surfing North Coast” on Wednesday. See page 13

YOURS AND YOURS MALONE

Gary Burman, Nora Sherwood and Bo Leyden of Pipedance

The Molly Malone Irish Dancers will return to the Lincoln City Cultural Center on Thursday, March 17, for a St. Patrick’s Day Celebration accompanied by the Celtic music trio Pipedance. Directed by four-time world qualifier champion dancer Meaghan Feeback, the Molly Malone dance troupe puts on a dynamic show, combining the intricate rhythmic footwork and movements of Irish dancing with eye-catching, colorful costumes. The troupe features Salem dancers Lucy Breedon, Esther Hudkins and Emmaline O’Donnell, joined by Portland championship dancers Kendal Bjerke, Amelia Douglas, Caitlin Kruell and Ashley VanHanel, who is a solo qualifier for the World Irish Dancing Championship. They will be presenting a variety of traditional and contemporary Irish group and solo dances. The dancers will be complemented by Celtic music ensemble Pipedance. The group, made up of Gary Burman, Nora Sherwood and Bo Leyden has performed widely at festivals, ceíli dances and pub sessions in Colorado, California, Washington and Oregon. While Burman performs on the Irish Uilleann bagpipes, flutes and whistles, Sherwood dances in the traditional Irish sean-nós style, characterized by low-to-the-ground, impromptu footwork. She also plays the bodhrán Irish frame drum and whistles. Leyden is a lively addition on the Irish bouzouki, mandolin and banjo. The show will begin at 7 pm in the auditorium of the cultural center at 540 NW Hwy. 101. Tickets, $18 for adults or $5 for kids under 18, are available at the door. Front-row tables seating four can be reserved for $75 apiece by calling 541-994-9994.

A trio of films focusing on surf and stewardship in the Pacific Northwest is on offer in Newport thanks to a partnership between the local branch of Surfrider and Rogue Brewery, in collaboration with Pacific Rivers and Oregon Wild. The series kicks off on Thursday, March 10, with a screening of “Behind the Emerald Curtain,” an award-winning documentary that chronicles the impacts of Oregon’s current rules for logging to people, fish, wildlife and water quality. Jason Gonzales from Oregon Wild and Paul Engelmeyer of the Portland Audubon Society will lead an audience discussion following the film. On Thursday, March 24, the series will continue with “Seeing the Forest” a documentary that looks at the circumstances leading up to the 1990s lawsuits against the U.S. Forest Service for violating its own governing statutes and the inspiring

partnerships that evolved in its aftermath through the formation of the Siuslaw Watershed Council and Northwest Forest Plan. Jason Gonzales and Paul Engelmeyer will lead a discussion following the film. The series concludes on Thursday, April 7, with “Surfing Hollow Days,” a classic surf film by Bruce Brown, which takes audiences back to 1961 to follow surfers including Robert August, Peter Johnson and Phil Edwards as they ride waves in Australia, Mexico and the US. Following the film, local surfing pioneers Scott and Sandy Blackman will introduce their new book “Oregon Surfing: North Coast.” All screenings are free and will be held at Rogue’s Brewers on the Bay, 2320 Marine Science Drive in Newport. Doors open at 6 pm and activities begin at 6:30 pm. For more information, go to https://newport.surfrider.org.

Return to corduroy I no longer recall when or where I decided that vintage corduroy was the perfect apparel choice for living at the Oregon Coast and rambling our public beaches. I have some vague general notions of the timing, but nothing concrete. Perhaps the moment arrived in a Newport wine shop when a cover model-looking woman (obviously from Portland or Seattle) came up to me as I was buying a bottle of Chianti, grabbed my shoulders, looked me up and down, and said, “You really got it going on!” She referred to my vintage corduroy outﬁt. I was bedecked from head to toe, three shades of brown. She seemingly didn’t want to let go of me. I converted her right there; she told me so.

Or maybe the corduroy obsession began after repeatedly watching “Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid” and seeing its two stars, Paul Newman and Robert Redford, wear corduroy with more friendly gunslinger panache than anyone in the history of the world. Who doesn’t want to look like Newman and Redford in that movie? Quite possibility my corduroy genesis story is hearing Tom Petty sing a stanza from “You Wreck Me” off 1994’s “Wildflowers.” I’ll be the boy in the corduroy pants You be the girl at the high school dance Or hearing Pearl Jam’s “Corduroy,” off 1994’s “Vitalogy,” a mysterious song with no mention of the cloth, just allusions to the metaphorical pain of never having worn it. Perhaps, though, the corduroy fever originated much, much earlier, as when my mother read me “Corduroy,” the classic 1968 children’s story of a lost corduroy teddy bear and a little girl’s love that reclaimed him. It doesn’t matter, really, knowing the precise moment of my epiphany. All that matters now is that I tirelessly extol the benefits of wearing these old groovy garments and inspire as many people as possible to return to these clothes for the first time in decades or try them on for the first time. You’ll feel better. You’ll move more gracefully. You’ll drive your car more safely. You’ll read more. Your chess acumen will improve. You’ll want to visit the beach more often. You’ll want to build a driftwood fort. A positive attitude adjustment is probably forthcoming. There is unity in wearing corduroy. Trust me. I’m an expert. There is no irony in my beliefs in the merits of donning corduroy. Irony doesn’t exist on the coast

when it comes to fashion. That’s for people in the big cities. These clothes are what they are — comfortable, peaceful and once made in America by unionized employees making a living wage. The early 1970s marked the heyday of twisted-ﬁber fashion. Pick up any slick magazine from that era and corduroy reigned with a velveteen touch. The Age of Corduroy. The age of the English countryside meets American hippie meets Joe Namath. What an aesthetic mix! And those colors: Blue, green yellow, black, pink, orange, maroon and the multitudes of brown. And those garments: Pants, hats, jackets, coats, jumpers, dresses, skirts, shirts, suits, pant suits, ties, shorts, hot pants, vests, overalls, halter tops, bean bag chairs, belts, car and furniture upholstery, shoes, tennis racquet covers. Even bikinis! And those styles: Bell bottoms, ﬂares, tails on coats, wide lapels, pockets everywhere. We were wild for fustian clothes and loved our wales. I think national politicians from both sides of the aisles wore corduroy back then and seemed more measured, relaxed. They weren’t shutting down the government either. One wonders why we ever abandoned corduroy for denim and polyester. It was pretty much all downhill from there. Fleece? Forget it! Hoodies? An abomination! Dig up your old corduroy or hit the thrift stores or vintage shops along the coast. The cool old clothes are still there, waiting to be worn again. Matt Love is the author/editor of 14 books about Oregon, including “ The Great Birthright: An Oregon Novel ” (it has a character who wears nothing but corduroy!). They are available at coastal bookstores and through www. nestuccaspitpress.com.

STRIKE IT LUCKY, WITH “THE MATCHMAKER”

Holly Waggerby, Karen Downs and Sandra Koops prepare Karyn Wigant to be born from the womb.

GET SERIOUS IN TILLAMOOK

Saturday Night Live-style comedy will be on offer this weekend in Tillamook, when the curtain goes up on “Nothing Serious,” the new production from the Tillamook Association for the Performing Arts. “Nothing Serious” is a collection of Rich Orloff ’s 10 most popular short comedies, set in imaginative locations ranging from Antarctica and Disneyland to the Garden of Eden and even inside the womb. Director Rikki Reid has assembled a cast of TAPA veterans, as well as several newcomers making their first

appearance on stage. Familiar faces Becki Wilhelm, Sandra Koops, Karen Downs, Kimber Lundy and Holly Waggerby are joined by newcomers Lynn Lothman, Abby Absher, Karyn Wigant, Lelani Waggerby, Irene Barajas, Daniel Reid, John Nordling and Tom Connaughton. “Nothing Serious” opens at 7 pm on Friday, March 11, with an Opening Night Gala celebration, where every ticket purchase includes complimentary hors d’oeuvres and a beverage of choice. The run continues through March 27, with performances

at 7 pm every Friday and Saturday and 2 pm matinées on Sundays. Doors open 30 minutes prior to curtain. All performances take place at the Barn Community Playhouse, located at 1204 Ivy Street, on the corner of 12th and Ivy, one block west of Highway 101.

Newport’s Porthole Players will present a comic take on marriage this weekend, as the company continues its run of “The Matchmaker” a turnof-the-century romp from playwrght Thornton Wilder. The story is about a conservative Yonkers businessman, Horace Vandergelder, who hires a marriage broker to find a suitable wife. Vandergelder has reached the age of 60 and “in a world of fools,” he believes it would be prudent to marry again, thus “risking a little security for a certain amount of adventure.” Little does the self-assured, swaggering Vandergelder know that his marriage broker, the widow Dolly Gallagher Levi, desires to marry him herself. Levi, a “woman of many talents,” finds ample opportunities to insert herself into the lives of everyone in Vandergelder’s world. There is Irene Molloy, a milliners shop owner, who feels stifled by her occupation and determined to be Horace’s next wife. Ermengarde is Vandergelder’s willful, yet proper niece, who

Ermengarde and her true love, artist Ambrose Kemper • Photo by Chris Graamans

wants to marry the artist Ambrose Kemper; a man whom Vandergelder considers naive and a bit foolish. Cornelius Hackl and Barnaby Tucker work in Vandergelder’s place of business; Barnaby is young and innocent, Cornelius wants the American dream and believes real love is possible. Levi wants to see happy couples together at any cost. She tries to help Ermengarde and Ambrose, while also encouraging potential love for Cornelius and Irene. Irene’s shop mistress Minnie Fay is paired with Barnaby. The drama unfolds

at the Harmonia Garden Restaurant, where new characters present additional wrinkles, leading to utter pandemonium. Yet Levi perseveres by maneuvering through the chaos in her desire to do good for the world, while also snagging Vandergelder as her “next husband.” “The Matchmaker” runs through March 20, with performances at 7:30 pm every Friday and Saturday and matinées at 2 pm on Sundays. Tickets, $13.50, are available by calling 541265-2787 or online at www. portholeplayers.com.

There’s room for everyone at the Garibaldi Crab Races Story & photos by Patrick Alexander Oregon Coast TODAY

Nothing, it seems, can come between the people of Garibaldi and their love of crab racing. When last year’s Oregon crab harvest came up short, organizers called in favors from crabbers in Washington to ensure an adequate supply of crustacean steeds. This year, the late start to the Dungeness season saw the Garibaldi fleet chomping at the bit while they awaited the all clear — only to find themselves pummeled by stormy conditions when they finally did hit the seas. But, the fleet came through with flying colors, bringing ashore a stable full of Dungeness thoroughbreds to tackle the course — and fill the pots — at the Old Mill marina resort this weekend. “We are really proud of the crab fleet here in Garibaldi,” said Kelly Barrett of the Garibaldi Lions Club. “Every single boat will be donating crab so we can make good money off of the crab dinners we are selling.” That generosity means lower prices for crab race patrons, with crab dinners selling for 25 percent less than at last year’s event. And guests will need all the sustenance they can get to make it through the mapdcap weekend, which sees little kids and burly fishermen alike step up for the chance to gee their steed on to glory. After jockeys take their place, lined up six abreast at a custom-made, sixlane crab-racing track, stewards place a live Dungeness crab in each lane. Jockeys are then allowed to use pretty much any means short of shoving to persuade their crab to scuttle down the track. “You can scream, you can yell, you

can pound on the table,” said longtime volunteer Laurice Meyers, “but you can’t touch the crab.” At a time when Lions clubs across the country are struggling, the Garibaldi club has hit on an event that continues to grow while keeping people of all ages coming back year after year. “We’ve had family from three different states that have been coming for generations,” Barrett said said. “We’ve watched children grow up coming to the crab races.” The races, which trace their origin to a group of bored fishermen killing time in a bar, have officially been going for 31 years. But Barrett, who is 53, said he remembers attending a few of the events when he was a kid, before they became a regular fixture. “I remember the excitement — something always going on,” he said. “You get to watch as people go crazy.” Over the years, Barrett and his fellow racers grew up and brought their kids to the crab races. Some of those kids are now turning up with kids of their own, making for some races that feature three generations. And, each year there are first-timers — those who make the trip to the coast especially for the event as well as passers by who happen to see the sign on Highway 101. “We always get people that are just driving past on the road and say: ‘Crab races? I’ve got to see that,’” Barrett said. Guests can enjoy a whole weekend of crab racing for just $5, receiving a button emblazoned with this year’s logo, which is good for admission both days. Entry to a regular race costs between a dollar and $3 depending on the prize that’s up for grabs, which could be anything from a gift basket to a golf cart heater, all donated by local businesses.

If you go WHAT: Garibaldi Crab Races WHERE: The Old Mill, 210 3rd Street, Garibaldi WHEN: 10 am-5 pm, Saturday, March 12; 11 am-5 pm, Sunday, March 13 COST: $5 for both days CALL: 503-322-0322

For folks with their eyes set on glory, entry into a championship race costs $5. Throughout the weekend, championship heats will whittle down competitors to the best of the best for a Sunday finale where $100 in cash is up for grabs. Throughout the weekend, the kitchen will be serving up winning and losing crab alike, alongside a host of other dishes, with wine and beer available. Meanwhile, original artwork and a host of other items will be on offer in a raffle. All proceeds from the event help support the Lions’ vision and hearing projects in the community as well as Christmas food and gift baskets.

Perry Shoemake surfing the Point in Seaside, 1980 • Photo by Tim Mack

Surfing historians Scott and Sandy Blackman will be at Newport’s Café Mundo on Wednesday, March 16, signing copies of their latest work, which covers the surfing culture that began in Portland, Seaside, Cannon Beach and Pacific City in the 1960s. “Oregon Surfing North Coast” is packed with vintage photographs and personal recollections from Oregon’s north coast pioneer surfers. In 1963, a group of classmates from Seaside High School formed the Seaside Surfing Association. Charter members Mark Hansen, Tibby Utter and Jerry Alto all credit surfer Dana Williams with getting the sport started in the area. “Dana was the key,” Alto said. “He had a surfboard and was from San Diego.” Word soon spread to Newport surfers, including Agate Beach Surf Club member Perry Shoemake, who surfed the cove in Seaside during the 1960s. “I started hearing rumors of a few guys who were surfing a recently discovered point break in Seaside,” Shoemake said. “The buzz was that it was a top-quality wave similar to waves in Hawaii.”

After the point was discovered, many surfers from around Oregon, Washington and California began migrating to Seaside, making it a hot spot for surfing. Pacific City had also become a favorite spot for many surfers. Glenn Kellow, raised in Pacific City, was an early 1960s surfer. “I became interested in surfing watching television on the Wide World of Sports,” Kellow said. “I started washing dishes for my uncle Johnny so I could buy a board. I started surfing when I was 13 years old and was joined by John Benson, Kani Rowland, Dennis Pearson and others. My father started calling us the ‘PCDC,’ an acronym for Pacific City Dirt

Crowd.” Scott and Sandy Blackman have lived on the Oregon Coast their entire lives. Scott, a pioneer surfer, has been photographing the evolving surf culture for 50 years. Sandy is a successful writer and storyteller. Together, the couple have become the historians of Oregon surfing’s pioneer years. Their first book, “Oregon Surfing Central Coast,” and their Facebook site, Oregon Surfing: Past and Present, document the early history of the sport in the state. The couple will be available from 6 to 8 pm, at Café Mundo, 209 NW Coast Street, to autograph their books, share surfing stories and memorabilia with surfing enthusiasts.

Season of the

get out!

clicks Photographers Bob Gibson and Jeri Knudson will return for another season of photo hiking clinics in Lincoln City, starting with an expedition on Saturday, March 19. The outings offer photographers of all skill levels the chance to capture stunning photos of Lincoln City’s treasured hiking spots while learning skills from a professional. “Lincoln City has a variety of trails that provide wonderful scenery,” Gibson said. “Each trail has varying levels of difficulty. The locations we picked this year focus more on the photography than the physical aspect of the hike, but we recommend that participants wear comfortable hiking shoes and dress in layers for each one.” The March 19 clinic will run from 9 to 11 am at the SW 51st Street beach access in the Historic Taft District, offering gorgeous views of Siletz Bay as well as wildlife viewing opportunities. Gibson and Knudson are seasoned veterans of portraiture and field photography, especially on the Oregon Coast, and are both Certified Professional Photographers in the state of Oregon. Their work is on display

at Blue Water Photography and JAKS Photography, both of which are full-service photography studios located in the Historic Taft District. Each instructor brings their expertise to the fold with these outdoor workshops that highlight the many picture-perfect moments within Lincoln City. Future photo clinics are planned for trails including Drift Creek Falls and the iconic Cascade Head. Each clinic will include two hours of ﬁeld photography and up to one hour of optional studio time after the hike for sharing, socializing and questions.

“The hikes are structured to accommodate a full range of photography ability and experience levels,” Gibson said. “We keep the instruction light and are willing to spend time answering questions in more detail. With two instructors, we are able to provide more individualized assistance.” Registration is $20 per person. Hikes are limited to 12 photographers aged 14 and up, and pre-registration is required. For the complete schedule and to register, contact Blue Water Photography at 541-994-3405 or go to www.oregoncoast.org/ photo-hikes.

ADD SOME PORPOISE TO YOUR LIFE Twice each year, visitors ﬂock to the Oregon Coast to watch the migration of gray whales between their Alaskan feeding grounds and the warm Mexican lagoons where they birth their young. But the massive grays are far from the only sea mammals that live and feed near Oregon’s shores, as a Tuesday, March 15, class in Lincoln City will show. The free, three-hour class will feature talks from a trio of marine experts and give participants an introduction to various species that are found oﬀ the Oregon Coast. “A lot of people are not aware of the fact that we have various dolphins, porpoises and other types of whales besides gray whales,” said Joy Primrose, president of the Oregon Coast Chapter of the American Cetacean Society.

Primrose will kick off the class with a review of the 12 main species found in Oregon waters, plus a mention of several types of beaked whales that have been found acoustically but not visually. Students will then get to learn about specific species behaviors, such as “lob tailing” — when whales flap their flukes on the surface of the water, sometimes to indicate irritation. Next up, Jim Rice of the Oregon Marine Mammal Stranding Network will explain how stranding incidents can offer wealth of information to scientists by providing insights into the lives of marine mammals, such as natural history, cases of human interaction and disease. Rice will offer an overview of the standing network,

give a summary of stranding trends and case investigations and discuss ways of getting involved. Fawn Custer of CoastWatch will conclude the class with a presentation on various programs that people can get involved in, including the sea star wasting disease syndrome survey, beach bird survey and the Adopt a Mile program, where volunteers adopt milelong segments of Oregon’s coast, keeping watch for natural changes and human-induced impacts. The March 15 class will run from 6 to 9 pm at the Lincoln City campus of Oregon Coast Community College, 3788 SE High School Drive. To register, go to http:// oregoncoastcc.org/communityeducation-registration or call 541-996-6222.

Not much went to waist

The lure of whales as a source of raw materials will be the subject of a Saturday, March 12, presentation in Newport, where natural history illustrator Uko Gorter will cover the history of an industry that saw many species hunted to the brink of extinction. Addressing the Oregon Chapter of the American Cetacean Society, Gorter will argue that the industry grew enormously in the wake of technological advancements that

allowed more and more high-value materials to be extracted from the captured whales. While in earlier times the whales were stripped of blubber and whalebone (baleen), and the rest of the carcass discarded at sea, technological advances in the 20th Century made it possible to utilize the entire whale. “From whalebone corsets to spermaceti candles, from military explosives to cattle feed, we’ll take

a closer look at the extensive and strange variety of whale products derived from these leviathans,” Gorter said. “We will have a sizeable collection of historic and recent whale products on hand, which you may touch, each with their own interesting and disturbing story.” Born in Arnhem, Holland, Gorter is a natural history illustrator specializing in marine mammals and marine fauna. He

joined the American Cetacean Society in 2001, and is the current president of the ACS-Puget Sound Chapter. The presentation, which is free and open to all, will start at 10 am at the Newport Public Library, 35 NW Nye Street. For more information, contact Joy Primrose, ACS Oregon Chapter President at marine_ lover4ever@yahoo.com or 541-5178754.

landscaping that includes dunes, trees and native plants. “The average student only spends about seven minutes outside every day — we want to change that,” said OMSI Director of Outdoor Education Steve Tritz. “We know that students are more likely to succeed if they’ve had real-world, outdoor learning experiences, and

With magicians of all kinds showing their stuff on stage every night at Lincoln City’s Festival of Illusions, kids will get the chance to work a little magic of their own thanks to the Abracadabra Art Workshop. The arts and crafts workshops offer four different art activities each day, with some being guided, such as crayon resist painting, scratch art and beading, and others being “free art” zones, such as the invention station and the stamp table. “Last year the Abracadabra Art Workshop was so well attended that we have decided to offer it all week long, Monday through Friday from 1 to 4 pm,” said organizer Krista Eddy. “It is a drop-in style workshop, so kids can come at anytime and stay as long as they want during this time period.” Eddy and a team of volunteers will offer the workshops in Margaret’s Meeting Room at the Lincoln City Cultural Center, 540 NE Hwy. 101, each day from Monday, March 21, through Friday, March 25. The classes are open to kids of all ages, but children aged 8 and under must be accompanied by an adult. Families are welcome to hang out together at the art workshop. A few of the art activities will see kids creating magic trick props that they can take home with them. The cost is $5 per day and all materials are included. our new camp will help provide these kinds of opportunities for children and their families.” The March 12 grand opening will run from 1 to 4 pm, with a special ribbon cutting ceremony at 2pm. Onsite parking is limited, so guests should gather at Rogue Brewery, 2320 Marine Science Drive, where shuttles will be provided to and from the camp. Registration for summer camp programs at the new facility is now open and available at omsi.edu/ camps-and-classes.

Blues at the beach Located inside an old brick factory, the Eden Hall in Gleneden Beach is built of sturdy stuﬀ. But blues star Ty Curtis will test the structure to its limits when he steps on stage for a one-nightonly performance this Friday, March 11. As a boy, Curtis was known to stand in the cold outside local blues clubs just to hear his favorite musicians — Chris Cain, Duke Robillard, Curtis Salgado and Tommy Castro. Now, The Ty Curtis Band is packing blues-lovers in and keeping them on their feet. Curtis was just out of High School in 2006, when he recorded and released his ﬁrst album, “Stubborn Mind,” packed with passionate vocals and driving guitar. The band hit the Northwest blues scenethat same year, starting with a standing-room-only show at Lefty’s Pizzeria in Salem and continuing with shows at Homer Davenport Days,

Roadhouse 101 in Lincoln City and KBOO radio in Portland. In the spring of 2012, Curtis traveled to Austin to record his self-titled album ‘Ty Curtis’ in just ﬁve days, showcasing a range of acoustic and electric styles to complement the mood for each track. His ﬁfth and most recent album “Water Under The Bridge,” continues in this vein but also represents something of a return his original bluesy roots, featuring solid lyrics, sizzling guitar and blues rock patterns. “Water Under The Bridge” has been well received, earning Curtis a place at #14 on Blues Rock Reviews Top 20 Blues Albums of 2014 as well as being played on radio stations worldwide. Doors for Friday’s performance open at 8 pm with the music starting at 9 pm, 6675 Gleneden Beach Loop. Tickets, $15, are available by calling 541-764-3825.

A native of Korea who grew up in Boston, Park received her bachelor’s and master’s degrees from the New England Conservatory. She has just been appointed artistic director of the Killington Music Festival in Killington, Vermont. Jonah Ellsworth is the newest member of the Boston Trio.

Fly high with seabird training Beach lovers who want to help scientists monitor seabird deaths can get free training this weekend in Yachats and Depoe Bay from the Coastal Observation and Seabird Survey Team or COASST. COASST volunteers help make a diﬀerence for the environment by collecting data on beach-cast carcasses of marine birds on a monthly basis. Data collected help address important marine conservation issues and protect marine resources. COASST will run free training sessions on Saturday, March 12, at the Yachats Commons, 441 Hwy. 101 N. and on Sunday, March 13,

at the Neighbors for Kids building, 634 SE Hwy, 101, in Depoe Bay. Through an interactive, hands-on workshop, trainees will become acquainted with the custom COASST field guide, “Beached Birds,” and have a chance to try out their newly acquired identification skills on seabird species common to the North Pacific. The training provides volunteers with the tools to monitor for potential changes in the marine environment and promote stewardship of local marine resources. COASST is a citizen science project of the University of Washington

in partnership with state, tribal and federal agencies, environmental organizations and community groups. Currently, more than 800 volunteers survey beaches in Washington, Oregon, California and Alaska. Both training sessions will run from 10 am to 4 pm, with a short break for lunch. Beach surveys are best conducted in groups of two or more and volunteers should come with a survey partner in mind or plan to join a team during training. To reserve a spot, call 206221-6893 or email coasst@ uw.edu. For more information on COASST, go to www. coasst.org.

“Great Escape” by Janet Runger

“Dancing Birds” by Janet Runger

SOME ASSEMBLY REQUIRED

Toledo artist Janet Runger has put together something very special Creations from the wild to the whimsical to the downright weird will be on display at Lincoln City’s Chessman Gallery throughout March as it hosts an exhibit of assemblage art by Toledo artist Janet Runger. The show opens this Friday, March 11, with a public reception from 5 to 7 pm, where guests will be oﬀered a glass of wine, appetizers and a chance to meet the artist. Teetering on the edge of darkness, Runger’s work is imbued with powerful meaning and storytelling qualities to capture the imagination. This show includes a wide variety of pieces made from found objects — everything from old rulers to engine sprockets, a 1950s potty chair to bits of rusty metal, and old train tracks to egg shells. It includes some of Runger’s series works, such as her “caravan series” and also sculptures and shrines, big and small. As an artist, Runger follows in the footsteps of her talented father, who created a lifetime’s worth of antique electric light sculptures before the

assemblage art genre was popularized by artists like Robert Rauschenberg and Jim Dine in the 1950s and ’60s. Her house is full of these magical creations, sparkling with light bulbs from half a century ago. Runger’s work follows the style of her mentor and teacher, Michael Demeng, an assemblage artist from Vancouver, Canada. DeMeng holds annual workshops in Portland and exhibits his work throughout the United States. In his art, he addresses issues of transformation, ﬁnding new and unexpected uses for discarded materials, which are reassembled and conjoined with unlikely components. “These assemblages are metaphors for the evolutions and revolutions of existence,” DeMeng said, “from life to death to rebirth, from new to old to renewed, from construction to destruction to reconstruction. These forms are examinations of the world in perpetual ﬂux, where meaning and function are ever-changing.” Together with co-owner Keith LaMarr, Runger runs the Things Found

Mercantile and Gallery in Toledo, where a universe full of found objects are at their fingertips for use in their foundobject works. As well as artwork made with found objects, the store includes art supplies, antiques, vintage objects, rusty junk, thousands of bins of objects and doodads, and fly fishing gear. Runger’s show will be on display through April 4, 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. For more information, call 541-9949994.

MAKE AN EXHIBITION OF YOURSELF The Chessman Gallery’s mission is to showcase the work of cultural center members and other artists in the community, and also to expose audiences to a broader spectrum of arts and culture. To apply for a show at the Chessman, download the proposal form under the “Galleries” tab of the cultural center website, www.lincolncity-culturalcenter.org, or contact Gallery Director Krista Eddy at 541-994-9994 or artgallery@lincolncity-culturalcenter.org. The application deadline for 2017 shows is Sept. 1.
