Glassworks will demonstrate glass blowing
from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday.
Fashion Show
The best thing about stormy weather is the
clothing — the stylish coats and cute rubber
boots for outdoors and the cozy sweaters and
comfy clothes for indoors.
The “Dancing in the Rain” fashion show
at 10:30 a.m. Saturday in the Coaster Theatre
is free, but donations to CASA (Court-Ap-
pointed Special Advocates), which assists
foster children, will be accepted.
Local residents will model, said Dena
Draxton, owner of Dena’s Shop on the Cor-
ner and fashion show organizer. “We will be
showing very wearable things, both indoor
and outdoor apparel.”
In addition to Dena’s, participating stores
include Maggie and Henry’s, La Luna Loca,
Cannon Beach Leather and Paolas Pacas, an
Italian designer from Portland, whose woven
pieces are displayed at EVOO Cooking School.

Grammy-nominated singer songwriter Ellen
Whyte and her five-piece band will perform in
concert at the Coaster Theatre on Friday night.
Street Music
Rain or shine, the streets will be filled with
music from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday, as local
and regional musicians play tunes throughout
town. From blues to classical guitar, with some
folk and Americana thrown in, there’s bound
to be something for everyone to listen to.
“Half or better of these musicians have
played Stormy Weather before,” said Paul
Dueber, who, along with “Bobcat” Bob Rice,
also will perform. “We always go back to these
folks because we like their quality. They’re
good to listen to, and their music fits.”
Each outside location downtown and in mid-
town has a back-up indoor space, in case of rain.
“We don’t even have to even bother to
look at the weather,” Dueber said.
Working Shakespeare
It will be a tempest of talent when three
local actors tackle the play “The Complete
Works of William Shakespeare (Abridged)
[Revised]” at the Coaster Theatre. The
shows will be at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, 2:30
p.m. Sunday and 7:30 p.m. Nov. 12.
“ Everyone and anyone is invited to at-
tend this free event,” said Katherine Lacaze,
who, along with Ellen Jensen and Emily
Estrada will perform the play.
