Wednesday, March 4, 2020 The Nugget Newspaper, Sisters, Oregon Sisters Folk Festival Sisters man dies seeks artist proposals in highway accident A 70-year-old Sisters man was killed crossing Highway 20 west of town in the early hours of Saturday morning. Oregon State Police reported that on Saturday, February 29, at approximately 5:18 a.m. emergency person- nel responded to a vehicle crash on Highway 20 near mile post 98. Preliminary investigation revealed that an International box truck, operated by Wallace Cook Jr., age 37, of Portland, was eastbound on Highway 20 when a pedes- trian, Richard Vogt of Sisters, crossed the highway in front of the truck and was struck. Vogt sustained fatal injuries. Cook called 911 and is cooperating with the inves- tigation. OSP was assisted by Deschutes County Sheriff9s Office, Sisters Fire Department, and ODOT on the scene. Sisters Folk Festival is seeking artists9 proposals for work honoring all those who have supported the organi- zation9s acquisition of the Sisters Art Works building. To celebrate the success of the $1.4 million Connected by Creativity capital cam- paign, and to acknowledge the more than 150 individual contributors, businesses and foundations that made the building and land purchase and upgrades possible, the organization is putting out a formal Request for Proposals from local and regional art- ists and craftsmen to design an acknowledgement edi- fice, plaque, structure, land- scape feature or other creative approach. The installation will be located outside the building and will identify the donors that helped complete phase one of the capital campaign. Collaborative projects are welcome.
