Country Fair will provide fun for all
The 20th Annual Country
Fair and Art Show is set to
roll at the Episcopal Church
in Sisters August 7-8.
Festivities kick off with
an artists’ reception on
Friday from 5 to 8 p.m.,
which includes refreshments
and a silent auction. Patrons
are invited to come and min-
gle with the artists. The Art
Show continues on Saturday
along with the popular
Country Fair from 10 a.m. to
3 p.m.
The art show and sale
includes participation from
many outstanding regional
artists and there is a diverse
collection of original
high-quality oils, watercol-
ors, pastels, photography,
sculptures, outdoor art, jew-
elry and other fine crafts.
This year’s featured art-
ist is Kathleen Keliher of
Central Oregon (see related
story, page 3).
The art show is juried this
year by noted Oregon artist
Bill Hamilton. In his retire-
ment, Hamilton has devoted
his life to spending time in
the outdoors and to his pas-
sion for his art, which often
represents places he has
been. Bill creates his won-
derful paintings of the out-
doors using oils, watercolors,
and acrylics.
The Country Fair has long
been a favorite event for old-
fashioned small-town family
fun. Fair-goers enjoy deli-
cious ribs, bratwurst, home-
made Marionberry cobbler,
games, animals, cake walks,
face painting, gently read
books, and the Country Store.
All funds earned at this
event are distributed to com-
munity support agencies.
The Episcopal Church
of the Transfiguration is at
68825 Brooks Camp Rd., at
the corner of Hwy 242 just
west of Sisters. Admission
and parking are free. For
