Each year a theme is cho- sen for My Own Two Hands By Jodi Schneider Correspondent Sisters Folk Festival (SFF) supports the arts, and this year during the COVID-19 pandemic the nonprofit orga- nization will celebrate by going virtual for the My Own Two Hands Community Art Auction and Fundraiser that supports youth programming. A silent auction is happen- ing May 8-16. It9s a way to offer up the art that was gen- erously donated by local and (MOTH) celebration of the arts. This year9s theme, <A New Dawn,= inspired art- ists to create and donate a piece of art to be sold at the benefit auction in support of music and arts programming in the Sisters schools and community. Artist Janice Druian9s oil painting, <Dawn9s Early Light,= was chosen as the image for the 2020 MOTH poster. Crista Munro, SFF execu- tive director, told The Nugget, <Janice Druian9s painting captures the MOTH theme perfectly. I love the way the morning light reflects along the top of the rock formations. But one of the most interest- ing things about this piece is that it shows us a different view of an iconic and much- celebrated landscape: Smith Rock. It suggests the possibil- ity of finding beauty by look- ing at something in a new way or from a different angle, and that ties right back into the theme of a new dawn. Little did we know when we chose the theme and Janice9s paint- ing just how different things would be this spring, not only for Sisters Folk Festival and My Own Two Hands, but for life as we know it. The paint- ing is a reminder to keep see- ing things in a new light and to find beauty in the unfamiliar.= Smith Rock State Park has always been a favorite painting subject for Druian, a Terrebonne resident, and was See MOTH on page 15 Thank You, Sisters Educators!
