Printmaker helps celebrate 75 years at Maryhill Museum An exhibition of 40 prints by internationally recog- nized printmaker Andrea Rich is set to open July 11 and run through Nov. 15 at Maryhill Museum of Art, which is celebrating its 75th anniversary this year. Drawing on printmaking traditions as diverse as Al- brecht Dürer and Japanese Ukiyo-e, the Santa Cruz, Cali- fornia-based artist creates vibrant, detailed works that are distinctly her own. Three decades of travel have taken Rich to far-flung locales such as Madagascar, New Zealand, Costa Rica, Africa and Europe, to observe com- mon and exotic species of birds and animals. These first- hand experiences are what she draws on to show her sub- jects in their natural habitats. On Thursday, July 23, at 6:30 p.m. it’s “The Art of Woodcut Printmaking: An Illus- trated Lecture” by Andrea Rich. Rich will discuss the woodcut technique – its traditions, complexity and process – and also share her own work in the medium. The lecture is free to museum members / $5 non-mem- bers.

A crowd of more than 100 children and adults packed the children’s area of Hood River Library for Douglas’ lively and humorous display. Many wore facial stick-ons resembling Carlyle’s impressive moustache. The per- formance was one of a variety of activities and events planned for the library’s Summer Reading program (details on page A8). Arts Center invites ‘writers in residence’ to come and hang out Writers: got an hour or two? Share your talents and ideas at a new program start- ing this month at Columbia Center for the Arts called “Writer in Residence.” “We’re trying something new at the Art Center. It’s a short-term writers-in-resi- dence experiment, and by short ter m we mean 1-3 hours,” said executive direc- tor Kerry Cobb. From July 10-31 (on Fri- days, Saturdays, and Sun- days) the center is inviting writers or all types to take a turn sitting in the gallery to talk with visitors. “We are inviting writers of any type — poets, fiction Corrections writers, non-fiction writers, cookbook writers, play- wrights, how-to writers, and others. You can talk about your writing, show off your books, write them a poem, share a recipe, talk about your play — you get the idea,” Cobb said. Sign up for a 1-3 hour shift any time from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. on July 10- 12, July 17- 19, and July 24-26 and July 31 by emailing Cobb at direc- tor@columbiaarts.org. “If it’s a success, we’ll ex- tend the hours into August,” she said. “We are doing this because it sounds like fun. We want to engage our visitors with a little literary talk, show off our area writers, and then see what happens.” The center will provide a chair and small table in the gallery window, a bottle of The July 1 article on the Cape Horn Overlook should have said that stonemason Michael Byrne is from Park- dale. The Hood River News strives for ac- curacy at all times. If we make a factu- al error, we welcome readers to let us know about it by calling the news de- partment at 386-1234. Calling All Softball Players water, and a window sign that says “Our Writer in Res- idence is In.” Sessions will be posted on social media platforms, too. Writers in residence are asked “to gently engage with visitors if they approach you, to bring a bio people can read if they wish, and to talk about your work or have a quote to give people or write them a poem — you’re cre- ative so we know you’ll think of something. You are wel- come to silently read or write at your table when not en- gaged with visitors.” Writers are asked to pro- vide a photo and a link to your website or info about your work if available.
