SIUSLAW NEWS ❚ WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 26, 2016 9 A Backstreet discovers ‘Where ART Thou?’ A MY C LAWSON SINGS AT T HREE R IVERS This weekend’s entertain- ment, Friday, Oct. 28, and Saturday, Oct. 29, at Blue Bills Sports Bar and Tap Room, will be Florence’s own Amy Clawson and Coltrane. Performances will be from 9 p.m. to 12:30 a.m. both nights. Clawson may be the next big thing in country music. She has the voice of an estab- lished superstar and soul of a pioneer. In each of the tracks on “The Woman I Am,” it is clear that Clawson is a force to be reckoned with on the country charts for decades to come, and it should be one heck of a ride.

Guest artists were invited to bring in a sample of their work. That request brought a table full of artful pieces of watercolor, acrylic, oil, jew- elry, photography, pottery, pastel art and more. Some artists used their cell phones to show their work, and many left the gallery with applications for the upcoming Little Dickens annual minia- ture exhibition in December. Acclaimed artist Michael Wood will jury this show and winners will get to display three pieces of art in April. To get an application, stop by Backstreet Gallery, 1421 Bay St. to pick one up. Backstreet is open 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily. Come enjoy the work of more than 20 local artists. This month’s featured artist is Karen D. Nichols, with Carole Hillsbery to be fea- tured in November.
