"No one puts their children in a boat unless the water is safer than the land."Jim had refugees choose objects they had managed to bring with them out of war zones. He printed with lots of white space for the owner of the object to write its story on the page.

This show by Karen Pidgeon is a perfect example of a hidden jewel in a pocket gallery.

For Eugene newbies, a little about the Eugene Biennial.

When you pick up one of these deceptively simple objects, you are holding thousands of years of history in your hands, as well as the singular artistry of one man, Tetsuya Otani.

The arts are in full summer bloom–get out and enjoy!! These galleries are cool inside, so gallery hopping is a good hot day activity.

If you haven’t been out to see the special juried show at Maude Kerns Art Center–it’s called “Home Team: World Stage”-- it’ll be open through this big weekend until July Ho22. You still have some time to take out-of-town visitors to see what amazing talent we have right here, right now.

My treasure hunt challenge for you is to use your app to create a treasure map that will take you to the Westmoreland Community Center and go find the new mural by our great local artist Susan Applegate on the east wall.

We have lots of visitors to Eugene this week of multiple graduations, so if you’re out and about enjoying the hub-bub, make it a point to pop into either one of the Karin Clarke Galleries.

The Art Crawl was a way for us to reconnect, to do and see as much art as possible between Seaside and Gold Beach in ten days.

Wherever you are in the KLCC listening area, First Friday is happening May 6. Let me give you a tasting menu of the delights artists and businesses are cooking up.
