The $650 grant is earmarked to pay for ship- ping expenses for artwork from artists residing outside the Pacifi c Northwest whose exhibits are featured in the Betty Feves Memorial Gallery. Traditionally, the gallery doesn’t have money available for shipping expenses, and artists incur the cost themselves. The grant allows the gallery to work with artists outside the Pacifi c Northwest region to assist with cross-country shipping expenses. So far, grant funds have been used to ship Ginger Owen and Vicki van Amey- den’s “Heritage Habitats” pieces — an experiential sculptural installation about ancestry — from Michigan for a show in April. Money will next be used to ship Chris Troutman’s “Drawn Narratives” pieces in October for a special display St. Anthony Hospital, Pendleton JUNE 20, 2017 B I G L E G G I N S RODRIGUEZ — Marisol L.
