Feves gallery utilizes
cultural coalition grant
The Betty Feves Memo-
rial Gallery at Blue Moun-
tain Community College is
the recipient of a Umatilla
County Cultural Coalition
grant.
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

While in New Orleans to receive an award,
Alyssa Keene was treated to an introduction to
Capt. Jim Lovell, the commander of the Apollo
13 mission to the moon.
The 17-year-old Griswold High School
student was among the recipients of the Billy
Michal Student Leadership Award from the
National World War II Museum. Keene was
nominated for the honor by her history teacher
Loren Kubishta. One student from each state
was selected by the museum for the award based
on their academic achievements, volunteerism and
community activism. Lovell, who also was being
honored by the museum, received an American
Spirit Medallion, an honor bestowed on those
who demonstrate extraordinary dedication to the
principles that strengthen America’s freedom and
democracy.
Keene traveled to New Orleans with her father,
Jeremy Keene. They were on hand for the grand
opening of a new exhibit, The Arsenal Of Democ-
racy (The Herman and George Brown Salute To
The Home Front). The students and their parents
were allowed unrestricted access to preview the
exhibit the night before it was opened to the public.

II museum or the American Spirit Awards, visit

Hey everyone my name is Milo! I am a super friendly
pug mix with long legs. I get along just great with
other dogs and I don’t really care much about cats.
I love to ride in the car and also give hugs. I need a
home where someone can be with me all of the time
or take me with them. I am a sensitive little guy
who will give you a lot of love. I am house-trained
and leash trained. I am neutered, up to date on my
shots and micro-chipped. Please come to PAWS and
visit me. It gets really lonely down here and I need
a forever friend. My adoption fee is just $130 and
I am willing and ready to go to a new home today!
