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.
