Columbia Gorge Art Festival!

It’s Thursday morning and I’m busy getting things ready for this weekend’s show, The Columbia Gorge Art Festival in Corbett, Oregon. This is a fun show, one I’ve done for a number of years now, and I urge everyone to come out for it. The weather is predicted to be sunny and warm, and Corbett is just a short drive east of Portland off of I-84.


You’ll find everything there from handmade cards to large garden sculptures! I’ll have my notebooks, Note Totes, wearable art pins, and handmade soaps there, and this will also be the first time that my new paper-tiled mirrors will be available for the public to see (and hopefully buy!).

A trip to the Columbia Gorge Art Festival makes for a fun outing, and you can use the opportunity to see and do other things along the beautiful Columbia Gorge. You can even enjoy lunch while at the festival… they always put on a great barbecue — the hamburgers are wonderful!

Here’s the address… 35800 East Historic Columbia River Hwy, Corbett, Oregon 97019
From I-84, take Exit 22, go up Corbett Hill Road to Historic Hwy and turn right. Art Festival is about 1/4 mile on left.

I’ll be there Sunday afternoon, and plan on doing some shopping of my own… last year my big “find” was a wildly painted papier mache cat that now occupies a comfy perch in my studio. He is painted in psychelic colors and has emerald green metallic whiskers. His yellow glass eyes watch and encourage me as I create new things. He is my “mews”! I’ll have to take a picture of him and post it — he’s really quite spectacular!
