Make your own feta with ‘The Cheese Guy’
CANNON BEACH — Learn to make
feta cheese from scratch with lifelong chee-
semaker and World Cheese Championships
judge Marc “The Cheese Guy” Bates.
The class takes place 9 a.m. to
12:30 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 19, at Tolovana
Hall, 3779 S. Hemlock St. The class is $45.
Feta, a cheese of Greek origins, excels
in all kinds of ways, elevating salads, dips,
pastries and more — everything from break-
fast to dinner, savory to sweet.
If you’ve already discovered the
delights of feta’s delicious, salty crumbles,
you also know the cheese can be costly.
After the course, you’ll take home the
knowledge and techniques to make feta at
home using mostly common appliances
and kitchenware.
After 40 years working with students at
the helm of the Washington State University
Creamery, Marc Bates is an effective and
experienced teacher.
Feta is not a cheese to be overlooked. As
Bates notes, a fully realized feta “can rival a
blue cheese for fl avor.”
The course is part of Bates’ cheese-cen-
tric series, in partnership with the Tolovana
Arts Colony.
Registration or RSVP is required and
space is limited. Reserve your spot at
tvafeta.eventbrite.com or by emailing tolo-
vanaartscolony@gmail.com.

Friday night laughs at the Labor Temple
ASTORIA — The Labor Temple Bar is
Astoria’s home for comedy. Cheap Whis-
key and Dirty Jokes features the best com-
ics from around the Pacifi c Northwest.
The next show — 8 p.m. Friday, Jan. 18
— contains adult material and language.

tured comics are Jaren George, Amanda

utes. He still is some of them. From reli-
gion to politics to life-experience over-
sharing, he leaves no sacred cow untapped.
The Labor Temple is at 934 Duane St.

Artistry meets history in Art Loft exhibit
ASTORIA — Artwork
by young artists has come
to the Astoria Art Loft
from the little Columbia
River town of Cathlamet,
Washington.
At a time when many
schools have done away
with art classes, Cathlamet
High School supports a
vigorous art program. Art
teacher Sue Garn chal-
lenged her students to tackle
portrait painting as well as
learning more about the his-
tory of Wahkiakum County.
Inspired by a trip to
the Wahkiakum Histori-
cal Society Museum, stu-
dents became acquainted
with people who lived in
the county between 1846
and 1945. After meet-

High School student now on

ing people of the past, stu-
dents selected an individ-
ual or a couple whose story
appealed to them. These
became the subjects of the
paintings. Curator Kari
Kandall supplied photos
and biographies of the cho-
sen people.
Most of the artists were
freshmen or sophomores,
along with a few juniors
and graduates.
This portrait exhibit inte-
grates local history with the
creative process, validates
the importance of students’
artwork and demonstrates
the cooperation among
school staff members,
museum staff and members
of the community.
The portrait exhibit is
open to the public 10 a.m to
4 p.m. Tuesday through Sat-
urday during January at the
Art Loft, 106 Third St.
