HOW THE 4000 MILES ART SHOW/TRIFECTA GETS SET UP

9 AM: Artists arrive and deliver their art
10 AM: A few more artists deliver their work...
meanwhile we begin gently unwrapping each individual piece of art, carefully leaning paintings and photographs against the walls, draping fabric art over the cushioned benches, and  3-D pieces were spread out on tables.
11AM: Patricia (curator) begins painting display stands. Diane and Eddy take apart the frames that will eventually hold the titles and prices of all the artwork.
NOON: Break for a little wine and lunch at Gilda's

1PM Patty sends Eddy and Diane home. Patty and Amy survey the art and begin to imagine where everything will go.

Our Gratitude...post #1

Here's a big shout out to 3 wonderful sponsors of our recent Art Raffle. We hope you'll read about each of them and choose to give them your business. They are small, local, and they are generous!

I know I'll be giving each of them my patronage not just because I am grateful, but because I have been long time fans of each business. 

       "The Play's the Thing"Shakespeare

ORA is proud to announce that we will be represented in an art exhibit/sale in the A.R.T. lobby in late April through most of May.

A.R.T. generously donated two theater tickets to our raffle. Our prize winner was ecstatic. Not only will she and her husband get to see a wonderful play "TRIBES" but they will be able to dine at Mother's Restaurant and spend the night at Hotel deLuxe.

A.R.T. is among the finest theater companies in the area. Their productions are always spot on, the acting superb,  and the plays are always thought provoking. We'll be discussing their upcoming play 4,000 Miles by Amy Herzog soon!

Check out their box office for ticket information. You are guaranteed to be entertained....dare I say provoked....(all in a stimulating way!)

A Night of Luxury!

Hotel deLuxe is one of those rare boutique hotels that caters to the needs of their guests with out the stuffy pretention of some places I have stayed. 

We have recommended this wonderful hotel to visitors...and all have proclaimed their joy in staying here.

Thank you Hotel deLuxe for supporting the Arts. Not only will our lucky raffle winners enjoy a night of theater, but they will spend the evening in classic & romantic comfort.

YUM!

Mother's Restaurant is a Portland landmark. The menu offers diners an exceptional variety of artfully prepared meals that will satisfy everyone! We are so grateful to this wonderful establishment for supporting our organization by donating. 

This writer has held more than a few committee meetings over a meal at this fine restaurant...family gatherings too!

Treat yourself to a wonderful meal at a restaurant that supports the arts!!!!!! You will be so happy that you did!
