Galleries team up for Columbia Plateau exhibit East Oregonian A pair of local galleries are joining forces this month to exhibit a large collection of monoprints, monotypes and block prints that focus thematically on the Colum- bia Plateau region. 5HÀHFWLRQ RI WKH &ROXP- bia Plateau features the work of participants in an annual printmaking retreat that Pa- FL¿F 1RUWKZHVW &ROOHJH RI Art in Portland and Crow’s Shadow Institute of the Arts have offered jointly for near- ly a decade. To extend the collaboration, Karl Davis, executive director of Crow’s Reflection of the Columbia Plateau THURSDAY, FEB. 5 Pendleton Center for the Arts •5-6:30 p.m., 214 N. Main St. Crow’s Shadow Institute of the Arts •6-7:30 p.m., 48004 St. Andrews Road Shadow, invited Pendleton Center for the Arts to exhibit half of the works in its East Oregonian Gallery. The exhibit opens tonight with a progressive recep- tion that begins with wine and hors d’oeuvres from 5-6:30 p.m. at the arts center and ends with dessert from 6-7:30 p.m. at Crow’s Shad- ow. Both events are free and open to the public. Frank Janzen, the Tam- arind Master Printer who oversees the print studio at Crow’s Shadow, was instru- mental in providing technical expertise to retreat partici- pants. Printmaking involves creating original works on paper using hand techniques and large printing presses. It differs from what is some- times referred to as “gi- clee” printing, which simply makes digital reproductions of an existing work. The prints in the exhibit represent 30 program alumni DQGUHÀHFWWKHSRZHURISODFH community and collaboration. The works will be on display at both venues through Fri- day, Feb. 27. Hours for both galleries are Tuesday through Fridays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. In addition, the arts center is open Saturdays from noon to 4 p.m. Admission to both gal- leries is free of charge.
