If Not Now, When? No, seriously, when? The Maude
Kerns Art Center is hosting an art show where the
theme begs the question to be answered. The name
of the show, If Not Now, When? was chosen in part by
local artist Tim Boyden, who brought together a group
of artists that also includes Jud Turner, Ila Rose and
Michael Whitenack (art pictured). Boyden felt he wanted
to “get like-minded people together in these times, and
get a sense of urgency about our world.” The exhibit’s
message is about artistic collaboration and positive
outlooks for the future. Through art, they wish to “Heal
the divisions and bring people with different visions
together, for a better future for all.” Sarah Ciampa, the
exhibits coordinator at Maude Kerns, says, “I think the
art is fantastic. I’m very inspired by it. It’s some of the
best work by some of the best artists that Eugene has.”
If Not Now, When? at Maude Kerns, 1910 E. 15th
Avenue, runs through Feb. 12. Gallery hours are 10
am to 5:30 pm Monday through Friday and noon to
4 pm Saturday. Due to COVID, Maude Kerns prefers
you make an appointment online to view the art at
MKArtCenter.org; drop-ins are allowed only if there is
space. — Chandlor Henderson

ATTENTION
“Dear Stranger,” a let-
ter-exchange project from
Oregon Humanities, offers
a chance for connection
during COVID-19 by inviting
Oregonians to write letters
with someone they’ve
never met. The aim of
Dear Stranger is to create
shared understanding
among Oregonians with
different backgrounds,
experiences and beliefs. The
premise is simple: Write a
letter, get a letter and make
a new connection. Oregon
Humanities has operated
Dear Stranger since 2014.
This winter’s prompt for
writers is about food: “How
has your relationship with
food — what you eat and
how you get it — changed
over the past year? What is
a favorite meal of yours, and
when is your first memory
of that meal?” Prompts for
writing and instructions for
participation are available
at OregonHumanities.org.
Letters are swapped anony-
mously, and each person re-
ceives a letter from the per-
son who received the one
they wrote. What happens
next is up to the writers.
If they’d like to write back,
they can do so through
Oregon Humanities. Letters
should be addressed to Ore-
gon Humanities, Attn: Dear
Stranger, 921 SW Washing-
ton St., Suite 150, Portland,
Oregon, 97205. Oregon
Humanities will exchange
letters mailed by Feb. 28,
2021.
