This week’s top five

1

LINCOLN CITY — It takes more than high winds to topple this town’s community spirit. After briey being oored by a 32-mile-perhour gust, the community Christmas tree is standing tall(ish) and ready to be the centerpiece for this weekend’s Tree Lighting and Christmas Market, alongside sweet treats, carols and lots of kids’ activities. See page 14

2

NEWPORT — Community is also top of mind at the Newport Visual Arts Center, which is now accepting entries for its annual Pushpin Show. Designed for people of all ages and abilities, this show is open to anyone with four pushpins and an idea. See page 22

3

GLENEDEN BEACH — Whether it’s beat poetry served with jetfuel espresso or a languid sonnet accompanied by a full-bodied Oregon pinot, The Red Roof has the perfect combination of liquid and spiritual refreshment this Sunday, Nov. 26, as poets Josiah Phillips and David Mason come to town.

4

LINCOLN CITY — After ďŹ lling up on Thanksgiving feasts, the town’s famous Float Fairies will be glad of a lighter-than-usual cargo for their beach deliveries this weekend, as they take to the sands to hide 100 extra pieces of pocket-sized glass art to supplement the glass oats placed daily throughout the o season.

GARIBALDI — For some it’s a ’57 Cadillac, for others a double-engine Harley, but here on the coast, there’s only one serious contender for the title of “sweet ride.â€? The Candy Cane Express makes its ďŹ rst trip of the season this Saturday, oering cookies, hot chocolate and the chance to rub elbows with Saint Nick, himself. See coast calendar, page 12

ALL BOOKED UP I

t’s been just a little more than a year since my novel “Wander” was published. It’s been an amazing experience and something of an eye opener as well. One of the things I learned right off is that if there is anything harder than writing a book (and convincing a publisher to publish it), it’s selling books. I’ve been lucky enough to be invited to a number of bookstores and book fairs which are hugely important in meeting readers and persuading them to shell out their hard-earned cash for a story they may or may not enjoy. So when I got the invitation earlier this fall to take part in the first Newport Library Author Fair, I was honored to say yes. Sheryl Hewlett Eldridge, librarian extraordinaire, came up with the idea. “It’s’ something I’ve thought of for years, but I didn’t pursue it,” Sheryl told me. Then, recently someone asked her how a writer might get the chance to present their book at the library. “I thought there are so many people;” Sheryl said, “she’s not the only one who has asked me that.” But Sheryl knew she couldn’t say yes to everyone who requested a solo appearance. “There aren’t enough hours in the day. I thought well, if I have this author fair, I can invite people who’ve asked in the past.” And so, she reached out to local authors and, not surprisingly, the spots filled up fast, including one for me. On Sunday, Dec. 3, I’ll join 21 other authors to sign books in the McEntee Room from 1. to 4 pm.

I didn’t say as much to Sheryl but I had to wonder if she knew what she was getting into. We writers can be, let’s just say, a quirky bunch. Some, not all (so don’t start yelling at me already), but some of us tend to be a little insecure, maybe a tad territorial and often not with particularly impressive bank accounts. Combine that with the difficult task of selling books and it seems sometimes some of us tend to forget that little matter known as etiquette. At my first book fair an author I had just met, announced, ‘Here, let’s trade books.’ I didn’t want to trade books. I don’t read her kind of writing. Not because there is anything wrong with it, it’s just not my taste. But there I stood, deer in the headlights, unsure how to politely decline. Instead, I trotted back to my table and grabbed a book, thinking, as I the miserly writer will, well, there’s $16 I’m out. At another event, where we each had our one square foot or so of real estate, the space next to me remained empty until just before the doors opened. Arriving, the author promptly pushed my poster and books a half inch my way, declaring, “There, you keep your things in your space and I’ll keep mine in mine.” In Seattle, where I joined masses of other authors in a overcrowded conference room, one seasoned gent with a half a dozen books “suggested”

cliff notes:

the coast, condensed

it would be fine for him to share my spot — a more prominent location directly in the main flow of traffic — then crowded a handful of his books next to mine. Not all memories involve persnickety authors. There was the woman who popped a piece of candy in her mouth, picked up “Wander,” then just as quickly set it down and scurried off, leaving behind a gooey thumbprint on the cover. Mother Nature has also had her say. How could I forget the freak Oregon Coast-like rainstorm in New York City just as I was setting out for my reading. I managed to dodge the storm. My publisher, however, arrived

looking a bit like a drowned rat, which I noted, albeit not in so many words. It was probably not the best introduction I could have made. Who knows what memories I’ll take from the Newport Library Author Fair, but come and join us and maybe you’ll make a few of your own. There will be cookies and cocoa and all sorts of books — historical fiction, young adult, literary mainstream, poetry, essays, memoir. Hopefully, there will be no need for one on etiquette.

The impact of creatures that drifted to the Oregon Coast after the 2011 tsunami will be the topic at the latest Science on Tap presentation, set for Wednesday, Nov. 29, at Newport’s Rogue Brewery. Dr. Jessica Miller of the Hatfield Marine Science Center will present “Tsunami Travelers,” a look at research on organisms that reached the West Coast via tsunami debris from Japan, indicating a new role of plastic marine debris — the transport of non-native species in the world’s oceans. Between 2012 and 2017, scientists documented nearly 300 species of marine animals arriving alive in North America and Hawaii on hundreds of vessels, buoys, crates and many other objects released into the ocean by the Japanese earthquake and tsunami. In a recent article in the journal Science,

Miller and her co-authors suggested that expanded coastal urbanization and storm activity, which may be enhanced due to climate change, could lead to a dramatic increase in the role of marine debris as a vector for invasive species. Miller is an associate professor at Oregon State University, based at the Hatfield Marine Science Center. Her research is focused on the ecology and life history of species found primarily along the west coast of the United States, such Chinook salmon, black rockfish and Pacific cod. Science on Tap, hosted by the Hatfield center, will begin at 6 pm at Rogue Ale’s South Beach waterfront location, Brewer’s on the Bay, with doors opening at 5:15 pm, 2320 SE Marine Science Drive.

An age-old question Award-winning gerontologist Jenny Sasser will be asking people to share their thoughts about death as part of a Tuesday, Nov. 28, presentation in Manzanita. “Talking about Dying” provides an opportunity for participants to reflect on what stories and influences shape their thinking about death and dying and to hear perspectives and ideas from fellow community members. Sasser served as chair of the Department of Human Sciences and founding director of Gerontology at Marylhurst University

from 1999 to 2015. In addition to co-authoring “Aging: Concepts and Controversies” with Harry Moody, she is first author on the forthcoming book “Gerontology: The basics.” She founded the Gero-Punk Project and offers consulting, workshops and presentations throughout North America. The talk will run from 3 to 5 pm at the Hoffman Center for the Arts, 594 Laneda Avenue. Admission is free but donations are accepted. For more information, email telaskinner@gmail. com.

All fishing, crabbing and clamming in Oregon will be free for both Oregon residents and nonresidents, with no licenses, tags or endorsements required. All other fishing regulations apply. Thanksgiving usually marks the beginning of winter steelhead season on the coast, and some early returning hatchery fish have already been caught. While some crabbing closures are in effect due to domoic acid, recreational crabbing is open in bays and estuaries and on beaches, docs, and piers from the north jetty of Coos Bay to Tahkenitch Creek and from north of Cape Foulweather to the Columbia River.

WELL READ, AT THE RED ROOF

Poetry is the espresso of the literary world — cutting away all but the essential words to create a short, intense burst of meaning, packed with all life’s flavor. And on Sunday, Nov. 26, guests at The Red Roof in Gleneden Beach can enjoy the two side by side, as Josiah Phillips and David Mason visit for an afternoon of poetry readings in this comfortable coffee house and wine bar. As a child, Josiah Phillips read the bible to his grandmother. Teachers at Roosevelt High School encouraged him to develop his love of Shakespeare and poetry, which led to his desire to become an actor. After acting with the Portland Civic Theater and Portland Shakespeare Company, Phillips moved to San Francisco in 1973 and toured the United States with the New Shakespeare Company of San Francisco. In 1987 he began a 22-year career with the Oregon Shakespeare Festival, playing in a number of August Wilson’s plays. Next spring, he will be in Wilson’s “Two Trains Running” at Portland’s Passinart Theatre. A native of Washington state, David Mason was poet laureate of Colorado from 2010 to 2014. His many books include “Ludlow: A Verse Novel,” “Sea Salt: Poems of a Decade,” and “Davey McGravy: Tales to Be Read Aloud to Children and Adult Children.” His work appears in magazines and newspapers all over the world, and he has also written opera libretti and a memoir. He divides his time between Colorado and a home in Newport. The readings will start at 3 pm at The Red Roof, 7040 Gleneden Beach Loop. Admission is free but donations are suggested For more information, call 541614-4528.

A LOOMING QUESTION How to cement a friendship? Cut a rug, of course. Story & photos by Gretchen Ammerman For the TODAY

E

very new friendship is faced with an inevitable question: What should we do on our first date? That question recently came up for me and Larayne Higgins; a new friendship forged at TODAY Towers. After kicking a few ideas around, we decided to take advantage of a special opportunity afforded by living in the Lincoln City area — we were going to make rugs. Elsie Chiavario operates two businesses, Elsie’s Discount Roving and the rug-making venture, out of her home in Lincoln Beach. The rugs are created on looms constructed by her late husband Jack Chiavario. “Jack wasn’t interested in making rugs but he loved building things,” Elsie said. “Once we realized this was something I really enjoyed doing and would stick with, he made me a whole set of them.” That was 25 years ago, and she’s still in love with the art. “It’s pretty addictive,” she said. “I still never get bored by it.” As the instructions began, Larayne and I were both feeling pretty oafish around the beautiful and seemingly delicate looms, but Elsie assured us the machines are both tougher than they look, and that we were doing fine. Elsie actually exudes a patient calmness that puts you immediately at ease. “It doesn’t help yelling at people,” Elsie said. “That just makes them nervous, and then no one would want to come back to make another rug.” The raw material for the rugs, which end up being about 2.5 by 4.5 feet, comes from Pendleton shirts, blankets, and lap robes. Part of the fun is picking the material, which sits in strips in

Elsie Chiavario

large bags, offering of options. Luckily Elsie has examples of different types of completed rugs around so you can get an idea of what the finished product might look like. After running around like foxes in a hen house, Larayne and I finally settled on the raw material for our potential rugs — she used the remnants from a blue and black plaid shirt, and I from a former lap robe of a mix of blues, pumpkin and beige. Elsie responded to our choices as if finally, after 25 years, through her door had walked two brilliant customers who had made the perfect choices. Despite the encouragement, it’s hard not to imagine what other colors you should have picked once you’ve committed. “About 100 rugs per year come out of the studio,” Elsie said, “many made by repeat customers, so you’re not alone.” One of the things that draws a

repeater are Pendleton’s National Parks series blankets, which have a special color theme to honor 10 national treasures like Crater Lake and Yellowstone Park. “I’ve had people make a rug for every one of the parks in the collection,” Elsie said. As we chatted, laughed and occasionally called to Elsie to expertly back us out of a screw up, the rugs began to take shape in a pretty thrilling way. “What’s fun about the process is that they get more beautiful as you go along,” Elsie said, and we had to agree. But for us, the fun was also so much in the making. “I was so impressed that someone would welcome me into their home and not only let me use their beautiful loom but teach me how to do it,” Larayne said. “And when you’re done you get to go home with something beautiful.” Though we weren’t trying to compete, our rugs were coming along at about

10 • oregoncoastTODAY.com • facebook.com/oregoncoasttoday • november 24, 2017

the same rate, which Elsie said usually takes about five hours on average. She recommends people set aside at least six, and that they bring a lunch or snack. “I’ve had people have to leave and I’m happy to finish the rug for them,” she said. “But that rarely happens. Once people start they generally want to make it to the end so they can say they made the whole thing by themselves.” Elsie can accommodate up to four people at one time, and appreciates a few days’ notice to make sure she has everything she needs ready, but has been known to accommodate walk-ins. Women make up the bulk of Elsie’s customers, but she does also get men that want to cut a rug. “They always pick something complicated,” she said. “But always do a great job in the end.” When we finished our rugs, Larayne and I agreed we had picked the perfect thing to do for our first date. “The rug making process is just complicated enough that you feel like you are really accomplishing something.” Larayne said. “I was really proud of us.” Elsie’s Discount Roving is located at 4210 NE Hwy. 101, three miles north of Depoe Bay. A $60 fee covers all instruction and materials. For reservations, call 541764-3997.

TREE WISHES at Lincoln City’s Tree Lighting Party and Christmas Market

T

he Lincoln City Cultural Center will be overflowing with hometown holiday sparkle this weekend as it hosts its annual Tree Lighting Party and Christmas Market. Running from Friday, Nov. 24, through Sunday, Nov. 26, the event checks all the holiday boxes, with carols, cookies, cocoa, an artisan fair, three visits from Santa Claus and the lighting of the enormous community Christmas tree.

Donations are happily accepted but participation is free, while supplies last. At 5 pm, volunteers and staff will begin to serve cookies, hot chocolate and coffee, generously provided by Kenny’s IGA and the Morgan Family.

Pop in and listen

Have a very country Christmas

An evening of pop will be on offer this Sunday, Nov 26, at the Lincoln City Cultural Center when acclaimed entertainer LA Wood takes to the stage. Wood was named best female pop artist at the 2013 Malibu Music Awards and has accompanied and collaborated with numerous musicians across the USA and in Europe. She learned the basics of music on piano in second grade. Shortly thereafter, she bought a four-string guitar from a flea market and soon

Tickets are now on sale for “Sara Evans at Christmas,” a two-night engagement that will see the country star bring her heartfelt sound to Chinook Winds Casino Resort in Lincoln City. The Friday and Saturday, Dec. 1 and 2, performances will feature songs from Evans’ eighth studio album, “Words,” a work that demonstrates her ongoing wilingness to leap into the unknown. Evans is one of country’s iconic modern singers and her music has resonated on country radio, at concert halls and amphitheaters and in fans’ personal playlists. Born and raised in Boonville, Missouri, she grew up listening — like much of her audience — to a mix of country, pop and rock on the radio. She began singing with the family band when she was five and made her first attempts at recording as a teenager, committing to a creative path with her move to Nashville in 1991. Her resume now includes 14 top-20 country hits, ranging from her reassuring first number one — “No Place That Far,” featuring background vocals by Vince Gill — to the neotraditional “Suds In The Bucket” to the elegant, spiky pop feel of “Slow Me Down.” She has had five numberone singles, sold millions of records, won the Academy

graduated to exploring the rhythms and tunings of six- and 12-string guitar. Influenced primarily by Joni Mitchell and Leo Kottke, she also became an accomplished

Latin percussionist after a brief collaboration with Brazil 66 in New York City. Wood studied vocal jazz at UMASS Amherst and music at Skidmore College in Saratoga Springs, New

York, where she began her professional music career. In Boston, she won an Acoustic Underground Artist award for her Latin-inspired trio. After recording her selfproduced acclaimed album, “I am Your Lover,” she was hired as a regular beach bar entertainer at The Pier House Resort and the Blue Heaven Restaurant in Key West, Florida — a starting place for Jimmy Buffet. There she learned harmonica and wrote and arranged more than 200 cover songs. She coined her sound “Conch Rock” and soon earned recognition as a popular tourist attraction that caught the eye of Malibu Music Festival in California. Her influences include roots rock, jazz, reggae and classic pop artists such as Sarah Vaughan, Annie Lennox, Van Morrison, the Beach Boys, the Indigo Girls and reggae masters Bob Marley and Jimmy Cliff. Wood will be accompanied by talented local keyboardist Norman Austin and wellknown percussionist Rodney Turner. The concert will start at 7 pm at 540 NE Hwy. 101. Admission is by suggested donation of $10.

of Country Music’s Top Female Vocalist Award and claimed a CMA trophy for her signature song, “Born To Fly.” Evans has also coauthored a trio of books for Thomas Nelson; advocated on behalf of the Red Cross; became an active contributor to the community in Birmingham, Alabama, where she has lived with husband Jay Barker for nearly a decade; and established a lifestyle blog — A Real Fine Place — that captures her flare for fashion, beauty and cooking. That blog also demonstrates that she understands, and lives, the solid, practical American work ethic that’s alive and well in her fan base. Evans will take to the stage at 8 pm on Friday and Saturday, Dec. 1 and 2. Tickets, $38 to $53, are available by calling 1-888624-6228 or online at www. chinookwindscasino.com.

Art in the spotlight The latest Spotlight Show from the Yaquina Art Association features photography by Richard LaFond, pencil art from Alice LaFond and sculpture from Mark Cheney. Now based in Seal Rock, Richard LaFond used to work in Hollywood as a still photographer for the Steve Allen Show in the mid-’60s. From there he moved to the San Francisco Bay area, where he shot commercial, architectural, portraiture and glamour photography for 30 years. Alice LaFond is inspired by the beauty of the Central Oregon Coast and is often challenged to capture subjects photographed by her husband, Richard. An array of colored pencils stands like a bouquet awaiting Alice as she begins each picture. Sometimes the finished result has the look of a watercolor and other times, the look of a photograph. Before retiring from the title insurance business in 2007, the only artwork Mark Cheney had done was to make an occasional piece of jewelry from findings and tumbled stones. Moving to the Oregon Coast changed his focus. He began finding driftwood on the beach that fit together in the shape of fish. As he continued beachcombing, Cheney found more and more pieces of wood that had the “essence of fishiness” and his pieces became larger. He calls his creations “Fish Stixs.” His latest work uses driftwood, stones and other objects in frames to create three-dimensional pieces that he calls “Stix & Stones.” The Spotlight show will be on display through Friday, Dec. 1, available to view

CHANGE TACK — — with an entry to Newport’s Pushpin Show “Impervious Iris” by Alice LaFond

“Dragonfly” by Mark Cheney

from 11 am to 4 pm daily at the Yaquina Art Association

Gallery, 789 NW Beach Drive.

Artists of all ages and abilities are invited to submit their work for the annual PushPin Show, running from Dec. 2 to 31 at the Newport Visual Arts Center. Now in its 27th year, the PushPin Show aims to recognize creative talent throughout Lincoln County, with artists of all ages and stripes encouraged to participate. Everyone is invited to take part, from beginners and emerging visual artists to established professionals, crafters, poets and literary artists, hobbyists, youngsters, oldsters, college students, retirees and families. The original Pushpin Show was the brainchild of local artist and art activist Jimmy Frankfort. And while it has grown over the years,

22 • oregoncoastTODAY.com • facebook.com/oregoncoasttoday • november 24, 2017

the show still adheres to an inclusive, all-county residents’ show that exemplifies the mission of the Oregon Coast Council for the Arts (OCCA) to celebrate, promote and develop community arts. Participants must be able to hang their work themselves, using no more than four push pins. All work must be original and suitable for display in a family show. Artists are encouraged to price their work for sale, with the OCCA retaining a 40 percent commission (reduced to 35 percent for OCCA members). PushPin artwork by current OCCA members will be featured on a designated “members’ wall.” Basic OCCA membership begins at $40 per year. Artists should deliver their work directly to the Runyan Gallery at the Visual Arts Center, 777 NW Beach Drive, between 11 am and 4 pm on

Friday, Dec. 1, and Saturday, Dec. 2. The exhibit will open on Saturday, Dec. 2, with a public reception from 5 to 7 pm and run through December. Guests will be invited to vote for the People’s Choice Award.

The Mayors’ Show

All artists submitting work for the Pushpin Show will be considered for the Mayors’ Show, an exhibit scheduled for January 2018 and curated by Newport Mayor Sandra Roumagoux and Lincoln City Mayor Don Williams, along with Newport Visual Arts Center director Tom Webb. The curators are open to non-traditional formats and presentation styles. Work must have been completed within the last three years. For more information, contact Webb at twebb@ coastarts.org or 541-2656569.
