6-by-6 Art Show
and Auction set for
Nov. 5 in Ilwaco
ILWACO, Wash. — The Co-
lumbia Pacific Heritage Mu-
seum will hold its seventh
annual 6-by-6 Art Show and
Auction on Saturday, Nov. 5,
and organizers of the event
are in a state — or, actually,
they’re in all 50.
This year’s event, with
the theme “State of Mind,”
has gathered more than 60
art objects — all of them
6-by-6 inches — from some
of the region’s most talented
artists.
The artworks will be
available to view in the
museum’s special exhibition
gallery now through Nov. 5.
The works can also be seen
on the museum’s website at
columbiapacificheriatgemu-
seum.org.
The silent and live auc-
tions will take place from
5 to 8 p.m. Nov. 5 at the
museum, which is located at
115 S.E. Lake St. Presiding
auctioneer, Bruce Peterson,
is both entertaining and
knowledgeable about the
artists and their works.
This event is the largest
fundraiser for the exhibition
programs of the Columbia
Pacific Heritage Museum.
It’s an opportunity to get to
know the local art scene,
enjoy some delicious re-
freshments, take home your
very own masterpiece and,
most importantly, show your
support for the Columbia
Pacific Heritage Museum.
Tickets for the auction
event are available at the mu-
seum for $10 each. Fifty raffle
tickets are being made avail-
able for $20 each. The winner
of the raffle will have the pick
of any 6-by-6 art piece prior
to the auction event.
Call the museum at
360-642-3446 or visit the
website for more informa-
tion about the auction, raffle
and exhibition.

ans attempt to perform “The
Complete Works of William
Shakespeare (Abridged) [Re-
vised]” at the Coaster Theatre

torical monarch in a revised
version of this comedic play,
written by Adam Long, Dan-
iel Singer and Jess Winfield,
that parodies all the Bard’s
works.
The actors who will per-
form this feat are Seaside res-
idents Emily Estrada, Ellen
Jensen and Katherine Lacaze.
They also are producing,
directing and designing the
production.
The play will be per-
formed at 7:30 p.m. Sat-
urday, Nov. 5 and at 2:30

performance contains some
adult humor, but you are
guaranteed a laugh or your
money back.
Estrada, Jensen and
Lacaze bring to the stage
about 45 years (collectively)
of experience in every facet
of theater.
Estrada, 25, started per-
forming at a young age. In
2013, she graduated from the
University of Oregon, where
she studied theater produc-
tion with an emphasis in
dramaturgy. Her performing
arts experience was devel-
oped and impacted greatly by
studying modern British the-
ater in London. After moving
to the North Coast, she stage
managed for “Twelfth Night”
and “Murder On the Nile” at
the Coast Theatre.
Jensen, a 25-year-old Port-
land native, has been running
onto stages and making a
spectacle of herself since she
was 3 years old. She has con-
tinued to do so on the stage
of the Coaster Theatre since
2010, where she first appeared
as a silly girl in “Annie Get
Your Gun.” She’s gone on to
play many other silly girls in
14 other productions includ-
ing Sally in “You’re a Good
Man, Charlie Brown,” Ra-
punzel in “Into the Woods,”
Jaqueline De Severac in
“Murder on The Nile” and,
most recently, the scatter-
brained Marsha Gilmore in
the Coaster’s production of
“Let’s Murder Marsha.”
As an elementary-aged
child, Lacaze, 25, started
writing and acting in plays
for her first captive audience:
her longsuffering family.
Throughout middle and high
school, she attended Mis-
soula Children’s Theatre’s
summer camp for several
years and participated in
community and school pro-
ductions. In her hometown
of Kingman, Arizona, she
directed six plays, including
“The Music Man,” “You’re a
Good Man, Charlie Brown”
and “The Importance of Be-
ing Earnest.” Since moving
to the area in 2014, she has
performed in four plays and
stage managed for one at the
Coaster Theatre.
“The Complete Works
of William Shakespeare
(abridged) [Revised]” is
produced by special arrange-
ment with Broadway Play
Publishing.
The Coaster Theatre is lo-
cated 108 N. Hemlock Street
in Cannon Beach. For more

Complete Works of William
Shakespeare (abridged) [Re-
vised]” event on Facebook.
Trivia and museum scavenger hunt strike again
CANNON BEACH — Back by
popular demand is the Can-
non Beach History Center
& Museum’s trivia contest
event. This family-friend
event is a great way to bond
or to compete for the highest
prize.
The one-day event takes
place from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Saturday, Nov. 5.
Each competitor purchas-
es a single trivia card for $2.
Each card contains 10 ques-
tions that must be answered
while in the museum.
No cell phone or internet
searches are allowed. All of
the questions are contained
within the museums exhibits
and displays.
“The event is a combi-
nation of scavenger hunt
and trivia contest,” explains
Museum Director Elaine
Murdy-Trucke. “The answer
to every single question
are contained within the
museum’s exhibits. Even the
bonus questions.”
Those who answer all 10
questions correctly will win
a prize. You can only win
once, but you will win —
the staff and volunteers will
make sure of that. While
they cannot give you an-
swers, they can guide you in
the right direction if you’re
having trouble.
The museum will offer
brain food in the form of
Sleepy Monk coffee and a
few light snacks. Writing
materials and writing sta-
tions are provided through-
out the museum.
