Two light taps of the gavel
by President Eric Olson
brought the first 1998 meeting
of the Senior Center Board of
Directors to order. We have
some good news and some
bad news. Let’s start off with
the bad news first. The need to
raise lunch prices has been
talked about time and again,
but now it is a necessity. In
February lunches will go from
$1.50 to $2.00. I will address
this subject in greater detail in
a Letter to the Editor in this is
sue, please read it.
We promise to make
changes at the Center and
here are just two:
Now you may play games
any time during the day up to
3:00 p.m.
Two sign-up sheets will be
provided
for trips
when
planned. One for the Senior
members and one for those
who wish to fill in should there
be a vacancy.
More changes will appear in
the next article.
The Seniors would like to
thank everyone who helped us
have a successful bazaar sale.
Profits from the sale subsidize
the Senior Center’s noon lunch
program. A Vernonia resident,
Vivian Cosnett, won the cro
cheted tablecloth in our raffle.
Winners of the Colco Trans
portation raffle were Barbara
Bergerson, Etta Russell, and
Rebecahanna Peerson.

Chuuiojria UfaJfaojna Q / oju
By Michele Kunkel
Director, VHOAC
Journalizing is a valuable venture many of us have taken on.
And I often use the computer because of the swift writing deliv
ery. But I also use another form of journalizing. This has color,
texture and, often, paths in many directions at once. It is journal
izing with art. Any medium can be used and, like a journal, it is
personal and not for presentation. Technique can be developed
but well-developed technique is not needed. Someone who has
never painted can use a paintbrush and paint to journalize quite
well.
The Vernonia Hands On Art Center will be starting a class the
first week of February for Art Journalizing. All mediums will be
available, but some will be suggested. The class will offer the
opportunity to engage Art Journalizing on a weekly basis. The
concomitance of journalizing will be the focus.
Art Journalizing classes will be Wednesday evenings, from
6:30-8:30, open-house style. Drop in to participate when it is con
venient for you. There is no fee, however donations to VHOAC
are always welcome. Optional supplies will be available for pur
chase (journal books, personal take-home supplies.). Feel free to
call me with any questions or suggestions. If you want to take the
class, but find the time conflicts with your schedule, let me know.
Many of you have expressed a desire to support the Art
Center. Strongly consider attending the annual, Vernonia Hands
On Art Center Summit, to be held Saturday, Feb. 21,8:30 a.m. to
12:30 p.m. All community members are invited. Come and help
make a difference in the upcoming year and direction for the Art
Center. There will be reports on the center’s history and current
status, recognition and appreciation of support, and the hands-on
work of specific objectives. The Summit will be held at the
Grange.
The Art Center continues to offer free after school art classes,
Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 3:00-5:00 p.m. for students
ages 6-17. In January the PTA and the Art Center are partnering
in the PTA “REFLECTIONS” art contest. Mondays and Fridays
will be dedicated to working on these projects. All students are
welcome to participate. The theme for artistic interpretation is
"Wouldn’t it be Great if...” The art areas are Visual Arts,
Literature, Music, Photography. Age/grade divisions are Primary/
preschool-2; lntermediate/3-5; Middle-Junior/6-8; Senior/9-12.
Wednesdays at the Art Center will be a change of mediums; pot
tery will be the focus.
All classes are held at the Vernonia Grange Hall, 375 North
Street. All questions may be directed to me at 429-4014, PO Box
295, Vernonia 97064.
