Ava Richey's Art News

Hello Everyone,

This Monday, May 14th, 12 - 3 p.m. the paintout will be at Bandon City Park on 11th Street SW. We willl meet at the Gazebo near the parking lot and playground. Bring a sack lunch and beverage if you like.

Thank you for being patient with the recent erratic sending of the art newsletter. Trying to do it from the road has been a challenge due to the lack of wi-fi connections in so many of the rural areas in which I traveled. I apologize if your announcements have not been published in a timely manner. I'm back in Bandon now.

My phone number 541-297-6118.

Thanks!

Ava

We are saddened by the death of Port Orford artist Doug Kinney, and send our condolences to Joyce and other family members. We will miss this kind and talented artist, and gentle man.
