Jan. 17 with Swan Sovereign
Music at the Vertical Ski Lounge at Mt. Hood Meadows
starts next week and continues on Saturdays in January.
Jan. 17, 3-6 p.m. Swan Sovereign is a Portland trio with
punchy, defiant pop songs, buttery harmonies, and bossy
lyrics. Stephanie Schneiderman (drums) Lara Michell
(guitar) and Christine McKinley (bass). Before taking
over the rhythm section and forming the power trio that
became Swan Sovereign, the three were in Dirty Martini.
Swan Sovereign is like a dance party on a sunny day in
Antarctica – bright and blinding.

featuring original soul bearing songs, improv crowd
pleasers, and creative cover mixes. Tony plays the key-

groove-laden works of art.

Amanda and Jenni Price, known together as Acoustic
Minds, specialize in their own blend of soul and New
Millennium dance pop. Their work has two completely
different, though not necessarily opposing, sides: a quiet,
acoustic side rife with gorgeous blues and soul influ-
ences and a loud, club-banging side that is rich in synths
and lyrics about the type of love at first sight that can
happen only on the dance floor.
‘Amber’ at Volcanic Jan. 10
Amber and the Pale Ales play the Volcanic Bottle
Shoppe on Saturday Jan. 10, from 7-10 p.m. The band

Hood River News, Wednesday, January 7, 2015
When Maryhill Museum
of Art opened to the public
in 1940, Time mag azine
called it “the world’s most
isolated art museum.” While
the surrounding population
has grown, Maryhill Muse-
um of Art remains a rural
anomaly – a robust cultural
institution with an outstand-
ing art collection, vibrant ed-
ucational programming and
an abundance of charm.
To open the museum’s 75th
anniversary season, Ameri-
can Indian Painting: Twenti-
eth-Century Masters will
bring to the Columbia River
Gorge a collection of 35
paintings of a type seldom —
if ever — exhibited in the Pa-
cific Northwest. Curated by
Maryhill’s Steve Grafe, the
exhibition, which features
some of the most important
American Indian artists of
the 20th century, will be on
view March 15, 2015 through
July 5, 2015.
The featured artists were
residents of the Southern
Plains and Southwest, and
affiliated with the University
of Oklahoma, Bacone Col-
lege and the Santa Fe Studio;
they include Ste phen
Mopope (Kiowa), Allan
Houser
(Chiricahua
Apache), F red Beaver
(Creek/Seminole), Jerome
Tiger (Creek/Seminole),
Harrison Begay (Navajo) and
Tony Da (San Ildefonso). All
of the paintings are drawn
from the collections of the
National Cowboy & Western
Heritage Museum in Okla-
homa City.
In addition to American
Indian Painting: Twentieth-
Century Masters, the muse-
um will mount a full season
of special exhibitions in
2015. These include:
honed his skill in Morris’
unique techniques and
learned to create sculptural
glass. Drawing inspiration
from nature, specifically the
San Juan Islands where he
grew up, Skyriver primarily
sculpts marine creatures, ex-
ploring the connections be-
tween humans, animals and
the environment that binds
us.
Native Peoples of The
Dalles Region
The exhibition features
twenty-plus photo prints, the
majority of which are from
Maryhill Museum of Art’s
own archives. These little-
known images are the work
of various Wasco County
photographers who captured
images of the landscape and
people who lived in and
around The Dalles during
the late nineteenth and early
twentieth century. Included
in the exhibition are photos
by F red Andrew “F.A.”
Young (Shaniko, OR), Fannie
Wright Van Duyn (Tygh Val-
ley, OR), Benjamin A. Gifford
(The Dalles, OR), and Ben-
jamin C. Markham (The
Dalles, OR).

Maryhill Museum
American Realist painting
owes much to R.H. Ives Gam-
mell, who shared his love for
the Classical Realist tradi-
tion with his students,
Richard Lack, Robert Hunter
and Samuel Rose. Maryhill
Museum of Art’s permanent
collection contains numer-
ous works by these four
artists and this exhibition
showcases a dozen of their
paintings.
Highway, the Sam Hill Room
will host a temporary exhibi-
tion of black and white
prints showing both con-
struction of the highway and
early scenic views of the Co-
lumbia River Gorge. Most of
the images are drawn from
Sam Hill’s personal photo
collection, which is housed
at Maryhill Museum of Art.
