celebrates the mixed-media art of

theme is “Merry Christmas, Rain or
Shrine.” Thurlby has upcycled found
objects and art into one-of-a-kind
shrines both sacred and whimsical,

her art 20 percent off for the month

Fairweather House and
Gallery
612 Broadway
Fairweather will host an opening
reception for “Quiet and Clarity.” There
is, indeed, a quiet strength found in
stepping aside from being hurried
in the hectic holiday season. And,
too, there is such clarity found in the
qualities of clearly crafted works of
art, each one so carefully defined that
it communicates purposely, effec-
tively and silently with its intended
audience. The show features artist
Marga Stanley, abstract artist Diane
Copenhaver, woodcut relief artist
Ashley Howarth.
The gallery will also showcase
master harp builder Duane Bolster.
For nearly 50 years, he worked in
operating rooms and Intensive Care
Units and witnessed the healing and
soothing effects that harp music had
on the children he cared for and on
their parents. In 2006 he won the
Hero award from CCA “for creating a
magnificent harp for the music pro-
gram,” and in 2010 he won the John
Barry Award from Northwest Kidney
Kids Inc. “for providing exceptional
care to children with kidney disease.”
Naturalist Neal Maine will speak
at 6 p.m. about the ecology of the
region. Enjoy live music by Shirley 88
on the keyboard, refreshments and
adult beverages.
