NBPL release – On Wednesday, July 13 at 11 am, North Bend Public Library’s artist-in-residence Janne LaValle will lead the second paint-along of the summer reading program. In celebration of the 100th anniversary of the Oregon State Park system, painters will recreate a view of the Secret Beach Trail at Samuel H. Boardman State Park. The class will be held in the meeting room and is scheduled to run from 11 am to 2 pm. The paint-along sessions are free, and painting supplies (canvas, brushes and paints) will be provided. Space is limited, and registration for the paint along classes is strongly advised. If there are open seats at the start of the class registrations may be forfeited in favor of last-minute hopefuls. To register, please go to https://forms.office.com/r/SXjZvT9h2Z. Patrons can also call or email the library. All registrants will be contacted to confirm their reservation. This paint-along is a part of the NBPL’s summer reading program. Attendance at library programs earns points for those playing the summer reading game. More information about the summer reading game will be available on the library website. In her paint-along sessions LaValle keeps a casual atmosphere. “As long as paint isn’t spilled on the table, there are no mistakes that can be made. This is a no-oops experience.”
