Old Town, Bandon
October 15th from 11 a.m to 1 p.m.
Curry Arts Member Sharon Guinn will present a Doodle Design Workship on October 15th. Zentangle is a fun art form that takes line and shapes to make abstract form. Students will use these qualities of line and shape to design a piece of art that will have the student’s artistic fingerprint throughout. Students, start looking through magazines for the shapes and art forms that inspire you…maybe something for the holidays. Start a file for ideas for the workshop. It is fun and will exercise your creative skills, as you draw and doodle through your project.

Time: 11 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.
Cost: $25

New work is being shown by Curry Arts member Pete Chasar at the Manley Art Center and Gallery, July 3 through July 30, 2018.
From a career in advertising to retiring in Brookings, Pete, like many retirees, returned to his passion making art. His style derives from his interests in nature and the work of Buckminster Fuller. As he has expressed, ‘I LIKE TO MAKE THINGS’, his current work embodies ideas and images that come from these interests. Come and share with him your common ground that you can find in his work.
