Students explore ag heritage through art Klahre House students unveil works April 8 Klahre House Alternative School students, using a grant from the Hood River Cultural Trust, have pro- duced a challenging art pro- ject they will unveil on April 8. Teams of students worked collaboratively to make indi- vidual linoleum cut block prints that also work togeth- er to print as a larger block of four. Continuing their artistic explorations into local histo- ry and agriculture, they ti- tled the project “Present Day WPA: Exploring Our Agri- cultural Heritage Through Art.” This is the students’ third project with artist-in-resi- dence Kelsey Mosley. The public is invited to the opening of an exhibit of their artwork at the Hood River Library’s conference room on Wednesday, at 10:30 a.m., where the artwork will be on display throughout the month of April. Students had this to say about the project: Cider Fest returns April 11 On Saturday, April 11, 19 local and regional craft cideries will gather in Hood River for the second annual Hood River Hard-Pressed Cider Fest, where there will be more than 38 ciders on tap. Eight of the cideries are located in the Hood River area – an indication of how the Columbia Gorge region is at the epicenter of the Pa- cific Northwest’s booming cider scene. Event located at 3315 Stadelman Drive, Hood River, noon-6 p.m. Entry tickets $5 (ages 14 and under are free); branded cider glass and 4 drink tokens: $5. ■ “We make art because it’s a way of expressing ideas and ways of life, and every- one can talk to each other with art; there is no lan- guage.” ■ “We brainstormed ideas and collaborated as well as finding different ways we could all contribute to putting our different kind of ar t to g ether on linocut blocks.” ■ “The techniques we used in our project was individu- ally using our own art skills and collaborating them all together in one project.” HOOD RIVER NEWS (ISSN 07465823) is published twice weekly, every Wednesday and Saturday.

The Gorge Literary Journal, a new voice for writers in the Columbia Gorge, is soliciting short original works for publi- cation. Partnering with The Hood River News, se- lected items will appear in a special newspaper section this summer. There is no financial re- muneration for accep- tance. All submissions are anonymous (the online submission process con- nects writers’ names to their pieces after they are accepted). The editors are looking for previously unpub- lished work in the follow- ing categories: poetry, essay and flash fiction, centered on living in the Gorge. Funny or poignant, satirical or lyrical, they want to know what the essence of the Gorge is to you. What delights you? Infuriates you? Inspires you?

The editors are not in- terested in political or re- ligious manifestos, work that promotes hate, or novel excerpts that can- not stand alone as flash fiction (“flash fiction” refers to characters and a conflict that is intro- duced, explored and re- solved concisely, in this case within 500 words). While there may be a place and time for adult language, this is not one of them, as the pieces will run in a family news- paper.
