Welcome spring! A Great Gallery
has been busy for the past couple of
months. We’ve been closed to remodel:
new paint, more lighting and lots of
new merchandise! Come see what’s
new to kick off the Gearhart Art Walk
season and enjoy refreshments. Each
month our refreshments will theme
a different country from around the
world. This month’s theme will be
Italian, “Ci vediamo presto.”

With spring just around the corner
we welcome any sign of it, including
fine art to inspire us at Trail’s End
Gallery.
During the first Gearhart Art
Walk of the year, the association will
feature Bill Logan, a new member
to Trail’s End. The show opening will
include a reception in Logan’s honor 2
to 5 p.m. Saturday, March 3. In addition
to our featured artist will be new
paintings, photographs and three-di-
mensional work by other member
artists. The gallery is located at 656 A
St., one block south of Pacific Way.
Logan hails from Massillon, Ohio,
and now lives in Astoria. In high
school, he began painting with oil
on large plywood sheets. His artwork
took a hiatus while he earned a living
as a career journeyman lineman. Now
Logan has returned to his passion of
painting.
He uses a graphic tablet to
create abstract drawings, combining
computer tools with his brushes. He
selects his colors and blends them on
the computer screen as one would
traditional materials. “It is my hope
that you receive as much joy in
viewing my work as I do in creating
it,” he said.
Trail’s End welcomes newcomers
to the art world as well as seasoned
ones. We have a judged show every
year and a new show of member
artists each month.
For more information, drop by or
call during winter hours 11 a.m. to 3
p.m. Wednesday through Sunday. The

Because it was “the little red
schoolhouse” in the early 1900s, the
gallery contains two classrooms with
an office in between. One side was
