Join us for a night of art, poetry, and live music by Victor Johnson at The Dalles Art Center!
Blending the written word with captivating artwork, this exhibit showcases original sketches and paintings from Angela D. Goldsmith’s newly published book, Curious Animals of the Pacific Northwest. Through whimsical yet scientifically accurate illustrations, each story offers a thoughtful moral, woven through the lens of permaculture.
Goldsmith’s book, along with her previously published chapbook series, presents six richly detailed tales. In just ten minutes, readers will discover a conservation species, learn a fascinating fact or two, and pick up a new word or phrase—all while enjoying an engaging narrative. This work defies traditional categorization, seamlessly blending science, nature, art, and poetry into a singular experience.
The series features stunning artwork, with each chapter illustrated by a different Portland artist. This exhibition includes original artwork, high-quality reproductions, the original hand-bound studio-printed chapbooks, and Curious Animals of the Pacific Northwest: Volume I.
This event and exhibit are sponsored by Wines on Second.
