There is a new weekly art meetup in Gold Beach for all ages, mediums, and skill levels!

We are a small, growing group of individuals, affiliated with Curry Arts, who are interested in working on art together. From absolute beginners to advanced/professional artists, and every skill level in-between, we are a nonjudgmental, welcoming group.

These freestyle art get-togethers, with a wide range of talents and abilities, ages, mediums and aspirations have a common thread of utilizing a group workspace and the allocated time to create art.

Art mediums are all-inclusive and we will explore themes and potential workshops as we go along. Please bring supplies to work with or just yourself – we will have simple supplies available for sharing.

The group will meet Thursdays from 4-6 pm.  On November 8, the group will meet in Mr. Lensing’s Art Room at Gold Beach High School.  Beginning November 15, meetings will be in the art room at Riley Creek School.  Click here for meeting room location details:  Location Map

The 11th Annual Gold Beach Brew & Art Festival sponsored by Curry Arts and Soroptimists of Gold Beach HAS BEEN CANCELLED.

Please check back for details on the 2019 festival.

 

 

The 11th annual Gold Beach Brew & Art Festival, previously scheduled for Sept. 8, has been cancelled.

Due to the Klondike and Taylor Creek fires, the US Forest Service will be taking over the Curry County Fairgrounds as their incident command post through the date the Brew Fest was scheduled.

The cancellation of this event presents a sizeable financial loss for the event’s two sponsors, Curry Arts and Soroptimist International of Gold Beach.  A substantial amount of money has been already been expended preparing for the festival.  Festival organizers estimate the loss will be several thousand dollars.

The co-sponsors are appealing to festival vendors and artists to consider donating their vendor fee to help reduce the financial hit.  Another alternative is to apply this year’s vendor fee as a credit toward next year’s festival fee.

Vendors and artists can find updated information at http://goldbeachbrewfest.org/.

Thank you for your understanding, and thank you to our Firefighters!

See you next year!
