It's TIME
If you haven't been to Bandon's Sage Gallery you must be living under a rock. Anne Sobotta and Victoria Tierney have joined forces and brought the TIME: A Traveling Show of Oregon Prison Art to Sage Gallery.
Now it is not unusual for Anne Sobotta to be a ground breaker and Victoria usually organizes a spectacular show or two every year, but the combination of two such talents makes the usual extraordinary.
The unique setting at the boutique gallery of Sage provides a perfect place to display art from behind prison walls. It is intimate and yet spacious enough to keep anything from being cramped and overwhelmed. Go see for yourself.
Sage Gallery and Oregon Prison Art, like toast and jam, the right answer to get your day moving, coffee optional.

Opinions were exchanged...
And everyone lingered as long as they could....
