Ava Richey's Art News

Hi Everyone,

This coming Monday, October 17, 2011, 11:00 a.m. - 3 p.m., we will be painting at the Coach House Restaurant in Eastside (near Coos Bay). They have an outdoor covered dining area in a garden setting where we can paint and eat lunch, in case the weather is inclement. If no rain, we could paint the views of the slough across the street.

They serve a great lunch, if you would like to eat there too.

Take Hwy 101 to through the first traffic light you come to when entering Coos Bay from the south, then make a right to go across the bridge to Eastside. Veer left after you cross the bridge. The restaurant is on the right hand side just past the O'Neill's Doors and the Pepsi distributor.

If you would like to carpool or caravan, we will meet at 10:30 a.m. by Bree's at the north end of the parking lot at Ray's Food Place in Bandon. Please let me know if you plan to meet at Ray's so we don't leave you. :)

My phone is 541-347-4643 or cell is 541-297-6118.

Thanks.

Ava
