passed away suddenly Monday from an aneurysm. Wendy and her mother Dorie
opened Tis the Season upstairs in the Cannon Beach Mall building circa
1980. The store closed in 2004 and Wendy worked at the Seaside Chamber
before taking a job with the the paper. Both Wendy and Terry were very well
known in town and will be missed. A memorial for Terry will take place Jan
9 at 4pm at the Legion. Wendy's is yet to be announced.

2. JohnB: As conductor of the Cannon Beach Chorus and former educator in
music, we have great respect for John's opinion on music. His
recommendation for a new Christmas song is "Wrap This" by Gordon Goodwin's
Big Phat Band http://www.bigphatband.com/.

Peirre Toutain-Dorbec's Exhibition "Humans" continues through January 4,
open 10am - 4pm Wednesday - Sunday (Closed Christmas Eve and Christmas
Day). It is a stunning retrospective of a 45 year career from his work as a
war photojournalist, and social commentator, through his travels in India,
to his current preoccupation with the American Road Trip. The link to his
exhibition page is  http://cannonbeacharts.org/humans-pierre-toutain-dorbec

The Cannon Beach Gallery has announced its 2016 program and is currently
seeking sponsors to support each exhibition. This sponsorship supports the
individual show, but also enables the Cannon Beach Arts Association to use
these funds as seed funding for further grant applications, ensuring the
quality of the shows and supporting activities and bringing more funding
into our community. Attached is a document outlining sponsor packages and a
pdf showing the exhibitions, each of which offer a sponsorship opportunity.
