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.
