Common Canvas projects are open for bidding.
Festival invites public
to join ‘common canvas’
The public is invited to
take part in the Common
Canvas Project, hosted by
Sisters Folk Festival, Inc.
(SFF) as part of their annual
celebration of the arts and
arts-based fundraiser, My
Own Two Hands (MOTH).
The Common Canvas
activities bring this year’s
theme, “Opening Doors,”
to life. You can participate
by creating and illustrating
a message about the door
you’d like to open this year
by decorating a wooden post-
card. The postcards will be a
part of an art installation at
Sisters Art Works until they
are mailed back to their cre-
ators at the end of the year.
Pick up postcards now at
the Folk Festival office at 204
W. Adams Ave., Suite 204, or
create yours at the MOTH
Community Celebration at
The Belfry on Friday, May
12, where SFF will provide
the art supplies and you sup-
ply the creativity.
Another Common Canvas
Project is already underway.
Nineteen local artists took
home a custom-designed,
miniature door frame and
canvas and created an
Opening Doors-themed piece
of art. They’re on display at
Sisters Art Works and can be
bid on until bidding closes at
6 p.m. on Friday, May 12.
If you can’t make it to
Sisters Art Works to see
them, visit www.sistersfolk.
org/commoncanvas for a
sneak peek.
Proceeds from the auction
benefit the Americana Project
and other music and arts pro-
gramming of SFF.
Also that night, there’s a
full-sized door to be turned
into a community-created
piece of art. Everyone is wel-
come to add their personal
touch. There will be an array
of art supplies to use, or you
are welcome to bring some-
thing meaningful to you to
adorn the door.
The full-size door and
the miniature doorframes
were crafted and donated by
OrePac, and financial sup-
port for the Common Canvas
activities was provided by a
grant from The Roundhouse
Foundation. The Common
Canvas Project is an oppor-
tunity for everyone in the
Sisters community to open
doors to their creativity.
Organizers want to emphasize
that we all need to remember
that everyone is an artist and
everyone has a creative gift to
share with the community.
For more information
about the Common Canvas
Project, contact the Sisters
Folk Festival office, 541-
549-4979 or come by to pick
up a postcard and bid on the
Opening Doors donations.
