It’s time to celebrate the
beach. Pastel artist and gal-
lery owner Susan Thomas
has captured that essence
in her new piece. Refresh-
ments and chocolate will
be served.
Pacifi c Crest Cot-
tage – 726 Pacifi c Way

Pacifi c Crest Cottage
hosts Denise Monaghan,
a local artist and graduate
of Minneapolis College of
Art and Design. Monaghan
is inspired by the natu-
ral world and captures the
spirit of animal imagery.
“Eyes have the same func-
tion in all organisms, but the
eyes of animals tell silent
stories.” Meet Monaghan
during Art Walk.

Trail’s End Art Asso-
ciation invites the public
to its 69th Annual Judged
Show. This is an opportu-
nity to view the best work
of many regional artists.
The
distinguished
judges this year are pro-
fessional artist and Asto-
ria’s Imogen Gallery
owner, Teri Sund; profes-
sional artist and Neskow-
in’s Hawk Creek Gallery
owner, Michael Schlicting
and Astoria professional
fi ne arts photographer, Dr.
Dwight Caswell. The show
also celebrates the artists
work as it creates an oppor-
tunity for the community
to purchase original art at a
reasonable price.
The show runs Aug.
3-24 with a gala and open-
ing reception from 2-5 p.m.
during Art Walk. Cash and
gift awards will be pre-
sented to artists at 3 p.m.
Saturday. The show can
also be seen 10 a.m. to
5 p.m. Wednesday–Sunday.
The fi lm shoot lasted 18
days, including three days
in and around Portland, on
the coast — including Man-
zanita, Arch Cape and Hug
Point — and Seaside.
“It was so great to shoot
in this area, not only for the
incredible natural beauty,
but also for the welcom-
ing reception we got from
everyone,” he said. “Every-
one was so supportive. Half
the people we talked to were
artists themselves. It was so
fun.”
The story follows Daphne
(DeBose), who moves in
with her boyfriend, Roger
(Shingledecker), when he
inherits his childhood beach
house.
The two decide to start
a family and a new life,
but when they run into a
local woman who works
at the arcade, Daphne real-
izes Roger hasn’t been com-
pletely honest about his
romantic past.
Now Daphne must risk
everything to fi ght for her
relationship, and her life.
Zalutsky said he had
“so much fun” making
“Seaside.”
“I hadn’t made a movie in
Oregon before, so it was just
incredible to be able to do
that in my home state with
friends and family around,”
he said. “My dad came to the
set one day to watch, which
he hadn’t done before, so
that meant a lot to me.”
Zalutsky credited his
“fantastic crew” of pro-
ducer Alyssa Roehrenbeck;
cameraman Phil Ander-
son; sound designer Quen-
tin Chiappetta; and editors
Maeve O’Boyle and Jordan
Montminy. Jordan Beswick
and Simon Max Hill cast the
fi lm; the music is by Megan
Diana McGeorge
“We had great support
from Tim Williams at the
Oregon Film Commission,”
childhood locations, Fun-
land! in downtown Seaside.
“They were so welcom-
ing and nice,” Zalutsky
recalled. “We shot on the
beach. We shot in the Sea-
side police station. It was
amazing! We would never
have the money to shoot in
these places in New York.
It just wouldn’t have been
possible.”
Zalutsky relayed that for
a couple of scenes, includ-
ing the most dramatic ones,
they shot in a large cave at
Hug Point.
“I wrote the script with
that cave in mind, but then
didn’t even think that a cave
on the coast might have com-
plications from the tides,” he
said. “So we had to sched-
ule those scenes really care-
fully, haul a bunch of lights
and other equipment from
the parking lot to the cave,
and make sure we did it all
within the few hours we had
before high tide.”
While the scenes “look
amazing,” he doubts he will
ever shoot in a “tide-depen-
dent” cave again.
“Seaside” was a “micro
budget fi lm,” he said.
“We raised a portion of the
budget from a small group of
investors, my husband and I
put in some money, we got a
lot of in kind donations from
vendors in Portland and the
Coast, a lot of donated loca-
tions, and we also did a
Kickstarter campaign to fi n-
ish the movie.”
Zalutsky is proud of his
cast and crew’s accom-
plishments outside of his
fi lm. Ariana DeBose is cur-
rently shooting the role of
Anita in Steven Spielberg’s
“West Side Story,” and was
an original cast member on
Broadway in “Hamilton.”
Steffanie Leigh is from Tal-
ent, Oregon, and played the
most recent Mary Poppins
on Broadway.
The score was created by
Megan Diana McGeorge, a
Portland musician who cre-
ated the “Piano, Push, Play”
series in PDX.
“Seaside” is getting a
digital release from Gravitas
Ventures; you can check it

“You couldn’t ask for a more
gorgeous place to fi lm.”
He said it was a thrill to
shoot in one of his favorite
