This week’s top five 1 4 LINCOLN CITY — Nothing says “here come the holidays” quite like a nice, big Christmas tree. And the tree out in front of the Lincoln City Cultural Center sure says it loud. Standing 25-feet tall, the donated conifer is the centerpiece for a weekend of festive fun that includes everything from cookies and cake to a pair of bewildered-looking reindeer wondering what happened to all the snow. See page 7

TILLAMOOK — Performers on stage at the Barn Community Playhouse rarely put a foot wrong, so we have every expectation that Ann

Harper and Robert Buckingham will do themselves proud in “Six Dance Lessons in Six Weeks.” See how the pair fare in everything from the Tango to the ChaCha as they tackle this two-person show that requires memorizing much more than lines. See page 5

MANZANITA — There is no town on the coast as achingly quaint as Manzanita, so it is fitting that this off-highway gem plays host to the Old Fashioned Holiday Celebration, the climax to the weekend-long Three Village Affaire. See page 15

TOLEDO — Art awakens the spirit. Art enlivens the soul. Art nourishes… oooh is that a plate of ribs? See great art and feed your inner desire for perfectly grilled meats as PigFeathers BBQ hosts another inrestaurant show. Don’t forget to visit the brewery next door either. See page 5

NEWPORT — This weekend is your last chance to see what happens when you cross “Sesame Street” with “Sex in the City” as “Avenue Q” wraps up its three week run in Newport. Naughty Muppets; what’s not to love? See coast calendar p. 12 & 13

ROUTINE? ANYTHING BUT.

EYE LIKE IT Waldport couple Michael and Maureen Farer will be the featured artists at Toledo’s Pig Feathers BBQ through the end of the year, displaying a range of graphic artwork created with studio markers, acrylics and watercolors. Both have been involved in design and the arts most of their lives, Michael having spent his career as an exhibit designer, while Maureen was involved in fashion and interior design. The couple’s latest series of close-ups focus on speciﬁc characteristics of animals’ faces, rather then the whole animal. “You don’t have to see the entire animal in order to know what you’re looking at.” Michael said. The couple moved to Waldport four years ago, and say they are thankful every day that they did. “The Oregon Coast is a great place to live,” Maureen said, “as it constantly inspires you to create.” The exhibit consists of 14 pieces of original art, all of

This weekend will see the curtain go up on “Six Dance Lessons in Six Weeks,” a new production from the Tillamook Association for the Performing Arts in partnership with Oregon Coast Dance Center. Ann Harper and Robert Buckingham play the roles originated by Uta Hagen and David Hyde Pierce in this two-character comedy written by Richard Alfieri, which tackles adult themes with wit, sarcasm and moments of touching empathy. Harper plays Lily, an aging but still formidable woman who hires Michael, an acerbic dance instructor played by Buckingham, to give her lessons in her Florida condo. Antagonism between the two gives way to friendship as they reveal their secrets, fears and joys to each other. By the final lesson, Lily shares with Michael her most closely guarded secret

Ann Harper and Robert Buckingham

and he shares with her his greatest gifts, his loyalty and compassion. As Michael takes Lily’s arm they both transcend fear and mortality

while the sun sets on the last dance. Harper and Buckingham have appeared in numerous TAPA productions, but this

is the first time they have had to dance on stage. The two have been put through their paces with lessons in various ballroom dances including the Cha-Cha and Tango by Oregon Coast Dance Center’s Lisa Greiner along with Wally and Diane Nelson. “Dancing has added an additional layer of complexity to the show that I hope audiences enjoy,” said Director Chris Chiola. “Six Dance Lessons in Six Weeks” opens on Friday, Nov. 27, and runs through Sunday, Dec. 13, with performances at 7 pm every Friday and Saturday and 2 pm matinées on Sunday, Dec. 6 and 13, at the Barn Community Playhouse at the corner of 12th Street and Ivy Avenue. Tickets, $15, are on sale now at Diamond Art Jewelers, 307 Main Street in Tillamook; call 503-8427940.

A pixie must which are available to buy, with 100 percent of the sale price going to the artists. Artists interested in showing at Pig Feathers BBQ should contact Becky Miller at becky@pigfeathers. com. Pig Feathers BBQ is located at 300 S. Main Street and is open from 11 am to 7 pm on Sundays and Tuesdays to Thursdays; and 11 am to 9 pm on Fridays and Saturdays.

Eﬀorts to restore the pixie population in the Lincoln City area will continue on Thursday and Friday, Dec. 3 and 4, when the North Lincoln County Historical Museum holds its second round of Pixie Ornament Workshops. Lincoln City has a long heritage when it comes to pixie folk. First there was Pixie Kitchen, the Oceanlake restaurant famed for pixie dust and generous helpings. Then Pixieland, a magical amusement park near Otis. Pixie sightings declined sharply when the amusement park shut down in the ’70s and ceased altogether when the restaurant closed its doors in 1985. The museum will be doing its bit to bolster pixie numbers with a pair of Pixie

Ornament Workshops running from 3:30 to 5:30 pm on Thursday, Dec. 3, and Friday, Dec. 4. Each participant will get to make their own pixie and dress it in regalia including beads, jewels, feathers and other ornamentation. All art supplies are provided. Space is limited to 15 children on each day and an adult must accompany each child. To reserve a ticket, call 541-9966614 or drop by the museum at 4907 SW Hwy. 101 in Lincoln City. This program is part of the Arts in Education and Community Arts Initiative of the Oregon Coast Children’s Theatre and Youth Art Center based in Toledo and is sponsored in part by Lincoln City and other partners.

Come see what’s cooking at the coast’s indoor markets Story & photos by Gretchen Ammerman For the TODAY

or all the joys of Christmas, shopping for gifts can be a slog — especially if the coastal weather decides to turn ugly enough to make even Santa think twice about venturing outside. But whether your list is for six or six billion, browsing for gifts in a heated building filled with live music, hot coffee and sweet treats makes the process much more enjoyable. At both Newport and Lincoln City’s indoor farmers markets you can find artisan crafts, clothing, jewelry, toys, bath and body products, art, ceramics and more. While shopping at the Newport market, held in the Lincoln County Fairgrounds Exhibit Hall, you may be gently serenaded into the holiday spirit by the music of Arden the Fiddler, who plays Celtic, Gypsy, Klezmer and Ukranian traditional fiddle. Arden sets his music stand by vendors like Kimi Pollett, owner of PBJ Fields, who sells fizzy bath bombs, bath salts, body butter, lip balms and other assorted items to make your skin feel soft and smell nice. Pollett’s motivation to start her business stemmed from her background as a designer. “Part of what makes this fun for me is making my products and my booth look good,” she said. The Lincoln City market is held all year at the Lincoln City Cultural Center, but once the days get shorter and the skies turn gloomy, the vendors move from the lawn into the auditorium of the historic building. There, the wood walls and soft lighting provide a cozy shopping experience and a good setting for the hand-carved wooden puzzles by Scott Slocum of Knock on Wood. Whether you choose a giraffe, a panda or a fishtank, the carefully crafted creations will look great on a shelf once its young recipient is no longer puzzled by how to put it together. If you like your gifts to keep on giving, you can purchase a colorful and well-made blanket from Stephanie Christiansen, who makes

the blankets to raise funds for her non-profit, Daniel’s 2nd Chance. “My son Daniel is in heaven now,” she said. “I wanted to raise money to help other kids and I didn’t have 501c3 status, so my friend came up with the idea for the blankets.” Daniel lost his battle with cancer in 2014, but the family, including big brother Shawn, who helps his mom at their market booth, continue to honor his memory and try to bring hope to other children fighting the disease. All proceeds go to the Doernbecher Children’s Hospital in Portland. Elsewhere, stands like Philomath’s Gathering Together Farms at the Newport Market still have many fall and winter vegetable varieties available. Meats are available from vendors like Walker Farms and Carver Ranch, who attend both markets year round and sell humanely raised, poultry, lamb, pork and beef products. “A lot of people come for the food, but stay for the crafts,” said Newport market manager Kelly Greer. And speaking of food, the Newport indoor market includes a food court with crepes, tacos and more. In Lincoln City, the Depoe Baykery will be adding quiche to their baked goods for sale, and Tic Tac Taco will be feeding the tired and hungry during the last two shopping weeks before Christmas. The Newport market stays open year round, but Lincoln City takes a little break after December. “We do really well during the holiday shopping season,” said Nancy Burke, market treasurer and assistant shop-girl at her niece’s jewelry and knitted accessories booth. “That’s why we need seven weeks off.” So go indoors to buy local, support artisan crafters, and keep from getting sleighed by your shopping list. The Newport Indoor Farmers Market is located on NE 3rd Street and is open Saturdays from 10 am to 2 pm through April. For more information, call 541-961-8236. The Lincoln City Farmers and Crafters Market is located at 540 NW Hwy. 101 and is open Sundays from 10 am to 3 pm through the first week in January and reopens in March. For more information, call 541-921-0062. Both locations accept credit and debit cards.

hen we say there’s a love with a capital L on show at the Lincoln City Cultural Center, we are not engaging in fancy wordplay. That’s because the 25-foot-tall conifer on the front lawn is the “Love Tree,” donated by the Love family to serve as the centerpiece for this year’s community Christmas celebration. The community is invited to the center on Thanksgiving Weekend for the illumination of the “Love Tree” and two days full of free family activities at the fourth annual Tree Lighting Party and Santa Sale. This free, weatherproof event will launch the Lincoln City holiday season with make-and-take ornaments, live music, a cakewalk, a vendor sale of handmade goods, two visits from Santa and the tree-lighting ceremony. And, thanks to a grant from the Lincoln City Visitor & Convention

Bureau, there will be a display of live reindeer on the center’s front lawn, both Friday and Saturday. The tree lighting itself will take place on Friday evening, starting at 4:30 pm, with the public invited to enjoy cookies, coffee and cocoa, courtesy of the Morgan Family and Kenny’s IGA. The Sweet Adelines will sing carols starting at 5 pm, followed by the “flip the switch!” countdown led by Mayor Don Williams. At about 5:30 pm, Santa Claus will arrive via fire truck and will make his way through the cultural center to his place of honor on the auditorium stage, where he will greet children, pose for pictures and give away candy canes. Visitors to the center might also want to grab a photo with a few other arctic visitors, in the form of real live reindeer, making a return visit from Timberview Farm after wowing crowds at last year’s event.

“Reindeer are like unicorns,” said Timberview Farm owner Cindy Murdoch. “Many people want to believe in them, but since they haven’t seen them, they don’t think they actually are a real species. Are they really reindeer? They can’t believe it.” The reindeer display will include a tent, under which the handlers will place a table with antlers, fur and other items to touch and discuss. Weather permitting, the display will be open from noon to 7 pm on Friday, and from 10 am to 4 pm Saturday. Meanwhile, inside the center, the Santa Sale, a handcrafted holiday fair, will be open from noon to 7 pm on Friday and from 10 am to 4 pm on Saturday. This year’s event will feature 25 booths, oﬀering everything from rugs and ornaments to jewelry and nuts. For more information on the Santa Sale, call Phil Robertson at 541-921-2006.

LeRoy and Lorainne Love planted the “Love Tree” in 1992 at their beach home in the Nelscott area of Lincoln City. The tree has outgrown its small yard and must be removed before it damages the home’s foundation or driveway. LeRoy and Lorainne’s daughter, Carol Love, watched the tree grow from the start. “They were given a tiny conifer seedling by a neighbor and LeRoy planted it in their front yard,” she said. “After all, it was such a tiny little thing, maybe it would grow enough to give them some shade and the birds and squirrels a home.” “The little tree grew and grew and grew!” she said. “LeRoy, when he planted it, wasn’t sure it would survive some of the coastal storms but each year when these “snowbirds” came back from their winter motorhome camping in Southern California, there was the growing tree right where they left it looking much taller and more and more regal watching over their small home near the beach.”

SISTER ACT SORELLA BRINGS FAMILY-STYLE ITALIAN DINING TO NEWPORT Story & photos by Nancy Steinberg For the TODAY

I’m sure we can all agree at this point in our epicurean history that Italian cuisine is far more than pasta and pizza. Having said that, doesn’t everyone want a place to go for great pasta and pizza, a family-friendly, aﬀordable neighborhood restaurant where the kids can have pizza and the adults can have a creative cocktail with their dinner? Sorella, still relatively new on the Nye Beach restaurant scene, covers all these bases and more. Opened in spring 2015, Sorella is the brainchild of chef Justin Wills, whose highend Restaurant Beck at Whale Cove Inn in Depoe Bay attracts

foodies from near and far. Wills has garnered national attention with his creative use of fresh, local ingredients. He was named a James Beard semiﬁnalist for best chef in the northwest in 2012 and 2013, and in 2011 he was a nominee for People’s Choice Award for Best New Chef US by Food and Wine Magazine. Looking for a new outlet, he established Sorella in Nye Beach. Since Restaurant Beck is named after his young son, Becker, it seemed only fair to similarly honor his daughter: “sorella” means “sister” in Italian. With this new endeavor, Wills wanted to keep things more casual, more accessible, more community-

focused. “We really wanted this to be the neighborhood restaurant, not the once- or twice-a-year experience that Beck is,” said head chef Tony Bixler. “We understand the value of a place where the toddler can play in the corner while dinner is being prepared.” True enough — there is a kiddie play area in one corner of the restaurant, well used, I’ve observed. Bixler, a native of the Central Coast who worked for Wills at Restaurant Beck, honed his Italian food skills at such hot spots as the former Osteria Sﬁzio in Eugene and Genoa in Portland before returning to Lincoln County to take the helm of the Sorella kitchen. The northern Italian menu he and

Tide Tables | The TODAY’s Dining Guide

Wills developed is relaxed and unpretentious but also inventive, with a focus on high-quality ingredients, locally sourced when possible. Nearly everything, from the pasta (of course) to the focaccia to the mozzarella, is handmade in house. “We use simple, strong ﬂavors to make homemade comfort food with a twist,” Bixler said. The menu is not vast, but everything on it is thoughtfully made with care and fresh ingredients. Appetizers include some of the best calamari around — served with pepperoncini aioli, marinara and Parmesan, and a beet salad with pears, arugula, pistachios, pecorino and Valencia orange. A daily antipasto rotates. Every pizza and pasta I’ve sampled from the menu is spectacularly delicious and perfectly prepared. The Margherita pizza is made with the house-made mozzarella, chunky tomato sauce and basil — so simple yet so satisfying. The eggplant parmesan pie is made with marinara instead of the chunky tomatoes, and the eggplant is perfectly seasoned and seems more roasted than fried. Current pasta favorites include Bucatini Carbonara made with egg, guanciale (an Italian cured pork), garlic, parmesan, pecorino and parsley — Bixler playfully refers to this one as “bacon and eggs.” At a recent dinner I had the lasagna, made with basil pesto and housemade Italian sausage. The lasagna noodles are so delicate that they do not need to be pre-cooked: they are layered along with the other ingredients and then baked, so that all of the ﬂavors infuse the pasta

sheets. And of course, there is always spaghetti and meatballs, but not just any meatballs. You have to try them to believe them. The menu also includes a few main dishes. The most popular right now is a two-and-a-half-pound pork shank served with pancettaroasted Brussels sprouts and ricotta gnocchi. If you are not comforted after eating this dish, you may be beyond comfort. Other main dishes currently include rockfish puttanesca (using locally-caught fish) and chicken scallopini. And be sure to save room for dessert. Again, options rotate, but the current selections include a rich chocolate torte and creamy tiramisu. Sorella has a wonderful bar as well, and I mean the bar itself is something to behold: a thick slab of Douglas fir that Wills polished and varnished himself. What is served at the bar is also something special: outstanding cocktails, many made with bitter Italian-style liqueurs, and a carefully crafted wine list. A recent drink special mixed Espolón tequila with lime, triple sec and blood orange and chili granita. Sorella is offering a range of special deals through the winter, including Sunday Suppers, a threecourse meal for $20, and Service Industry Night on Tuesdays when those in the biz (with a liquor or food handler’s license) get happy hour drink pricing all night. Look for $10 pizza Thursdays soon as well. Sorella is located at 526 NW Coast Street in Newport. It is open from 3 to 9 pm seven days a week, with happy hour from 3 to 6 pm.

GOING DEEP

DIVE IN — AT THE DEEP END CAFÉ IN NEWPORT Story & photos by Patrick Alexander Oregon Coast TODAY

Anyone dining at The Deep End Café cannot help but notice the large portrait of a man with a steely gaze keeping silent vigil at the end of the bar. That is Johnny Crowe, aka: Deep Sea John, a man who never got into deep water without a plan. That’s a philosophy shared by owner Charlotte Boxer, who manages the restaurant with the same strategic vision that she has brought to her more-than-40-year career in commercial real estate lending. “When I told my friends I was opening a restaurant at my age, they told me I was going off the deep end,” she said. But for Boxer, the move was a return home. She grew up around restaurants, helping out in her parents’ establishment from the age of 13 until she went off to college, where she waited tables to help pay tuition. For years, while working her way up the corporate ladder, Boxer scoured antique stores for nautical-themed dishes, chandeliers and other fixtures that fitted her vision of the restaurant she knew she would one day own. And it was on one of these antiquing trips that Boxer was introduced to Crowe and his wife, Patty — who shared a passion for everything nautical and the life of the restaurateur. The couple went on to mentor Boxer on how to run a restaurant as she set about remodeling the former Quimby’s building, which sits across the street from the Newport Performing Arts Center, just yards from the Pacific Ocean. Crowe also lent his woodworking skills to the effort, crafting a set of distinctive tables from ships’ hatch doors and fashioning a glass-

Charlotte Boxer, owner of The Deep End Café

topped bar to display a wealth of treasures from Boxer’s beachcombing trips. The nautical theme runs throughout the restaurant, with a series of marine murals from Lincoln City artist Donna Seeto alongside historical pieces, such as a sign for the Sea Rock brand of crabmeat that used to be canned nearby. “It’s important for me to have a fun kind of light-hearted visual in the restaurant along with the food,” Boxer said. Throughout the whole process of renovating, opening and running a restaurant, Boxer has continued to work at her Portland bank three days a week in order to balance the books. That financial stability has paid off, with The Deep End Café retaining all the core staff members who were on board when it opened in December 2013. Among those is chef and kitchen manager Felipe Reyes, who presides over a menu that leans heavily toward fresh seafood but also features a range of burgers, salads and pasta dishes.

“We are proud of our fresh ingredients,” Boxer said. We make our soups, salad dressings and sauces from scratch. When possible, we buy our fish from our commercial fishing fleet here.” The restaurant sources grain-fed, hormonefree meat from a farm outside Eugene and buys produce from the Newport Farmers Market, with kitchen staff even making their own chips from Yukon Gold potatoes. When it comes to bestsellers, the starter is a toss up between the lightly breaded calamari, the fresh Manilla steamer clams and the West Coast oysters. For the main course, though, there is no competition — the crab and shrimp macaroni cheese wins hands down. And dessert options include the house specialty, a marionberry cobbler made from scratch with fresh berries. “We have people tell us that they’ve had marionberry cobbler at literally hundreds of

restaurants and ours is one of the best,” Boxer said. A full bar offers a wide range of wine, spirits and craft beers, with several draft taps set aside exclusively for beers from Pelican Brewing. Through her bank, Boxer financed several of the Pelican’s projects in Pacific City and, in doing so, became close friends with Pelican owners Jeff Schons and Mary Jones, who were happy to pass on a few tips as Boxer began her own enterprise. “They were instrumental in mentoring me in the early days,” she said “As you can imagine, it’s a very steep learning curve.” In tackling the task, Boxer has used the same management strategy that has served her so well in the banking world — hiring good staff and empowering them to do their jobs. While Reyes takes care of the kitchen, dining room manager Tiffany Fanning makes sure all guests feel welcome, from couples to families and even dogs, who are seated al fresco on the pet-friendly patio. One day, Boxer said, she will leave the banking behind and live at the coast full time but until then she looks forward to every day she gets to spend at The Deep End Café. “I am the happiest when I am here at my restaurant,” she said. The Deep End Café is located at 740 W. Olive Street in Newport and is open from 11 am to 8 pm Wednesday to Thursday; 11 am to 9 pm on Friday and Saturday; and 11 am to 8 pm on Sunday for fall and winter hours.

Newport celebrates a resident of note

“Boats in Fog” by BJ Trotter

Trio in the spotlight Work from three Newport artists will be on display in a Spotlight Show starting on Sunday, Nov. 29, at the Yaquina Art Association Gallery. The show, which runs through Saturday, Dec. 12, pairs the art of Darlene Bowen with that of sisters Rosemary Sumner and BJ Trotter. Bowen grew up in a family of artists, with her grandfather using oil paints and her mother and sister drawing. A self-taught artist herself, Bowen draws with pencils and loves acrylic paints. Much of her work is inspired by the Oregon Coast, where she has lived most of her life.

Originally from Louisiana, Trotter and Sumner now also call the Oregon Coast home. BJ, a member of the Yaquina Art Association Photographers, recently returned from a trip to Ecuador and Peru, which led her to photography hotspots including the Amazon, Machu Picchu and the Galapagos Islands. Sumner, a painter, has a bachelor’s degree in art and loves to experiment with color, using it in unexpected ways. The show is available to view daily from 11 am to 4 pmat the gallery, located at 789 NW Beach Drive, at the Nye Beach Turnaround.

The coming week will offer a rare chance to see inside the home of one of the Oregon Coast’s most treasured residents as the Bloch House opens its doors to visitors. Ernest Bloch, born in Geneva in 1880, lived the last 18 years of his life on the Oregon Coast until his death in 1959. It was there, looking out over the Pacific and the Yaquina Headlands from his home on the Agate Beach cliff, that he created several of his greatest works. A child prodigy on violin, Bloch’s formative years were spent studying and learning composition in Brussels, Frankfurt, Paris. He later returned to Geneva, where he married his wife, Marguerite, and became father to three children, Ivan, Suzanne and Lucienne. Bloch came to New York in 1916, seeking better opportunities in music. He found them — achieving success in composing as well as securing teaching positions in Manhattan, Cleveland and San Francisco. In 1930, after completing his tenure as director of the San Francisco Conservatory of Music, Bloch was awarded an endowed chair at University of California, Berkeley, that allowed him to focus exclusively on composition until his retirement in 1952. The terms of the endowment were that he could live anywhere, so he returned to Switzerland for nearly a decade before moving to Portland in 1939, where his son worked as an engineer. It was on a return trip from Berkeley to Portland that Bloch discovered Agate Beach. He and Marguerite bought the house from the Bush family in 1941. This was the only house they ever owned. After completing his “Suite Symphonique” in 1944 at the end of World War II, Bloch entered a prolific and productive period that continued right up to the end of his life, bringing prestigious awards to his coastal retreat. Though off the beaten path, Bloch’s Agate Beach house played host to musical greats including famed violinist Yehudi Menuhin and composer Igor Stravinsky. The doors to that house will be open for four days in December, thanks to a partnership between the Newport Ernest Bloch Legacy Project and the Ernest Bloch Foundation. The house will be open for tours from 2 to 6 pm on Thursday, Dec. 3, through Saturday, Dec. 5; and from 2 to 4 pm on Sunday, Dec. 6. The main event of the weekend will take place on Saturday, from 10 am to 2 pm, with a reception, refreshments and a program including a performance of pieces from Bloch’s “Enfantines.” For more information, call Frank Geltner at 541-961-1482.
