*****The Winter Show: (January, February, March -2012): “DOWN ON THE FARM” Southern Coos Hospital and Health Center, Bandon

From Victoria Tierney: Paintings (or other wall art) inspired by farming and agriculture. For many years OSU sponsored a wonderful state-wide show called “Art about Agriculture”, but unfortunately funding ran out, and this year the Coos Art Museum had a very fine show in the Atrium with some of the pieces from that show which had been acquired by OSU over the years. We thought it was a great idea for a show here in Bandon, since so many of us live on or near farms and often paint the plants, the animals, and the land. If you have work you feel might fit into the show, please call me at 541-347-9862 or email me at: victory7777@hughes.net. We will need to have the works delivered to the hospital by Wednesday January 11th and the show will open on Sunday, January 15th. Someone suggested we have country music to go with the theme, and I’ve asked my friends “THE SLOW PONIES” (3 Applegates and 3 others) of Yoncalla if they might come and entertain us. The ponies are still deciding but I hope they’ll make it down for the occasion. They’ve performed in Bandon before and they are terrific.

----------------------------------------------------

*****The Spring Show: (April, May, June): “WEATHER REPORT”

Southern Coos Hospital and Health Center, Bandon

Works inspired by the South Coast Weather. We’re a land of wild winds, torrential rains, glorious sunsets, rainbows, waving grasses, threatening clouds and churning (or shining) seas----all fair game for our local artists and photographers. No snapshots please. If you have a really fine photo it must be matted and framed and ready for hanging.

Any questions…..check with Ava Richey at Bandon Art Supply or call Victoria Tierney or Susan Lehman at 541-347-9888.

------------------------------------------------------

0*****The Summer Show: (July, August, September): “GAMES PEOPLE PLAY”

Southern Coos Hospital and Health Center, Bandon

It was Crystal Landucci’s impressive collection of games of Chinese checkers that inspired this one. We’re looking for board games of all sorts that can be mounted on the walls; your own inventions would be great too……you’ve got a little while to work on this one so start inlaying those chess boards or drilling those cribbage sets….(fashioning those dominos?)…….This should be a really fun exhibit for the summer and we hope it will combine collectibles and the fruits of your imagination.

--------------------------------------------------------

*****The Fall Show: (October, November, December) “WHAT I DID ON MY VACATION”

Southern Coos Hospital and Health Center, Bandon

Paintings and Journals created by the travelers amongst us. We already have some folks in mind but if you have some work you think might fit in….please let us know.
