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.

Portland juggler Curtis Carlyle virtually never stopped talking through Wednesday’s 45-minute routine of juggling stunt after stunt in-
volving balls, bowling pins, rings, sticks, cups, and more. 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

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

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

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.
