Ava Richey's Art News

Hi Everyone,

We continue painting at Coos County parks. Any of you are welcome to join us, even if you are not participating in the "30 Artists / 30 Parks" project.

Mike Ousley has kindly agreed to lead an artists' caravan to the painting spot this week, since I will be working this Monday.

Mike's cell phone number is 541-251-3847.

If you would like to carpool / caravan from Bandon to Whiskey Run Beach and Rocky Point Boat Ramp on this coming Monday, June 27th, please meet Mike Ousley at the north end of the parking lot at Ray's Food Place (near Bree's Clothing) at 11:45 a.m.

Painting from 12 - 4 p.m. Bring a lunch and beverages. No restrooms are available at Whiskey Run, but there is a restroom at Rocky Point.

Don't forget to allow time for road construction on the roadways. :)

Directions to Whiskey Run: From Bandon take Hwy 101 north to Seven Devils Road, go west about 3 miles. (Go past Stock Still Lane and Brown Rd.) Turn left at the Whiskey Run sign, it's about a mile to the beach. Do not leave valuables in the car here.

Directions to Rocky Point Boat Ramp: Turn on to North Bank Road at the north end of the Coquille River Bridge (near Bandon). The Boat Ramp will be on your right about 2 miles east of Hwy 101...(it's past the new parking area for the marsh).


Thanks.
Ava
