Cannon Beach — The Cannon Beach Arts Association will host Bonnie Laing-Malcolmson, curator of Northwest art at the Portland Art Museum, as the guest curator for the Winter All Juried Show. The show will run from Feb. 4 to March 1.

Laing-Malcolmson is a Seattle native and has spent most of her life in the region. As the northwest curator at PAM, she curates solo exhibits each year for the museum’s APEX program, highlighting artists from Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana and Wyoming. In addition, every two years, she assembles the Contemporary Northwest Art Awards, a group show that focuses on the work of several regional artists.

As a steward of the art scene in the northwest, Laing-Malcolmson promises to be a dynamic curator and a great draw to the Winter All Juried Show for artists from across the region. The curatorial process will take place Saturday, Jan. 31 during the morning hours. Artwork that is not accepted into the exhibit will be available to pick up starting between 2 and 4 p.m. Saturday afternoon and between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 1.

An opening artist’s reception will be at 5 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 7. Laing-Malcolmson will be on hand during the reception to meet artists and patrons. Plans are also underway for an additional ticketed event with Laing-Malcolmson for Sunday, Feb. 8. Further details will be announced later.

Submission date for artists to drop off — up to three original pieces — of artwork to the Cannon Beach Gallery will be from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Friday, Jan. 30. The gallery is located at 1064 S. Hemlock St.

There is no theme or size limitation for this exhibition, and artists working in both two- and three-dimensional media are encouraged to participate. There are no application fees to participate in the CBAA’s juried show; however, artists are encouraged to become members of the arts association. CBAA members receive special notices about all of the exhibits at the Cannon Beach Gallery, including call-for-work notices, a yearlong exhibition calendar and monthly exhibit postcards. In addition, membership dollars help fund the Cannon Beach Gallery space with its 12 distinct exhibits. The Juried Show Program received a grant from Cannon Beach’s Tourism and Arts Fund to help facilitate the program.

Visit the Cannon Beach Gallery website at www.cannonbeacharts.org for additional information about the show, including the protocol for submitting artwork.

A free Mix and Mingle event for artists participating in the Winter All Juried Show will be from 5 to 7 p.m. Friday, Jan. 30, at the Cannon Beach Café. The evening will provide artists submitting their work a reason to stay in town and enjoy the camaraderie of other artists from across the state. CBAA director Andrea Mace and the gallery committee will host the event, which will include light refreshments and appetizers.

The Cannon Beach Café is located just south of the Cannon Beach Gallery on Hemlock Street in the historic Cannon Beach Hotel, currently celebrating its 100th birthday. In addition to donating the venue for the artist’s Mix & Mingle event, the hotel is a lodging partner of CBAA and is offering special rates for the weekends of Jan. 30 to Feb. 1 and Feb. 6 to 8.
