NOVEMBER 3, 2016 // 3 Find an epic lineup of authors Maritime museum hosts book signing, unveils new work by artist Bill Dodge ASTORIA — Veteran As- toria artist Bill W. Dodge will reveal a new original painting at the Columbia River Maritime Museum on Friday. The museum will also host an epic lineup of 16 authors — locals or those with local connections — with books available for purchase and personaliza- tion. Visitors can meet the authors, check out Dodge’s newest artwork and listen to coast local folk band the Browns- mead Flats in the great hall. It all takes place from 3 to 5 p.m. Friday, Nov. 4 before the Columbia River Maritime Museum’s annual meeting at the museum, lo- cated at 1792 Marine Drive. Raised in Hollywood, Dodge fi rst arrived in Asto- ria in 1990, and his well- known artwork depicts life in Astoria. He returned to live in Astoria this sum- mer following a three-year retirement hiatus in Port- land. He appeared at the Astoria Sunday Market this summer at the museum’s Dodge-sponsored booth, and he’s been busy painting full time.
