Need some EGGS-tra incentive to get out and explore a local community?<br />
Check out EGGS-plore Lynnwood — an event geared to explorers of all ages.<br />
Ten-inch tall plastic eggs, decorated with creative designs by local artists, are on display at 28 locations around the city.<br />
Explorers can pursue the egg hunt either with an phone app or with a map available at Lynnwood City Hall.<br />

Participants are told the general location of the eggs — such as the Edmonds School District’s administration complex or the Lynnwood Library — but they still have to spot them.<br />
Once found, explorers click on the phone app to register it or circle it on the paper map.<br />

Participants don’t get to keep the designer eggs. They will be auctioned off in June with all the money distributed back to local nonprofits.<br />
But explorers can qualify for prizes — everything from entry tickets for six to Lynnwood Bowl and Skate to dinner for six with wine at the Lynnwood Convention Center.<br />
The idea for the egg hunt came from Fred Wong, a coordinator in the city’s Parks, Recreation and Cultural Arts Department.<br />
He said he wanted an activity that people of all ages could participate in, that would familiarize people with the community and would “do some social good as well.”<br />
“We have all these human service organizations in Lynnwood that a lot of people don’t even know about,” he said.<br />
He said he hopes that as people look for the eggs at stops like Goodwill or Clothes for Kids, which provides free children’s clothing to qualified families, they will learn a little about what these organizations do for the community as well.<br />

The event began March 4 and continues through May 6. Wong said he’s seen kids out looking for the eggs with Dad on his day off, grandparents hunting with their grandkids, as well as adult sister siblings.<br />
“A lot of people are having fun doing this,” Wong said.<br />
Each egg cost about $200 to produce. The city received a grant of $4,000 from the Washington State Arts Commission to pay artists for their creations. Several artists decided to donate their work instead of being paid.<br />
One of the artists, Brooke Fotheringham, of Seattle, decorated an egg made out of silvery aluminum pieces to look like scales on the egg.<br />
“I was playing around with the idea of dragon eggs from ‘Game of Thrones,’ ” she said. “It was so fun to make.”<br />
Another artist, Mark Ostheller, of Everett, produced an egg with a black background and intricate dot mandala design.<br />
“It’s pretty delicate,” he said. “The mandala pattern on the bottom has about 4,000 dots.”<br />
If you’re wondering, there is an historic connection between Lynnwood and eggs.<br />
In the 1920s, the city was home to a lot of small family farms. “We were the second largest egg producing region in the United States,” Wong said.<br />
“So that was basically the idea,” he said, “to have artists create the eggs and put them out for the community to find.”<br />
Happy hunting!<br />

The Kent Arts Commission announced the winners of the most recent exhibit on <a href="https://www.kentcreates.com/" target="_blank" title="link">Kent Creates, the web platform</a> for sharing art, culture and creative endeavors.<br />
The “Holiday Traditions” exhibit asked the community to share fall and winter holiday traditions. The exhibit was open October through December and received 33 submissions, including paintings, photographs, drawings and a song.<br />
<div class="gpt-ad horizontal video-ad" data-google-query-id="CLSw45bSrdoCFUr0ZAodzYgK0g" id="div-gpt-102" style="display: none;">

</div>
The commission voted on submissions and, in keeping with its commitment to pay artists for their work, the top five pieces receive $200 honorariums. The winners’ work also appears on the featured carousel on the Kent Creates homepage.<br />
The five winners from the “Holiday Traditions” Exhibit were:<br />
Rob Kneisler “Homeless for the Holidays” (song), Michael Eggers “Snow Berries” (photograph), Joan Stuart Ross “Oysters for New Year’s” (encaustic on wood and panel), Erica Peto “Angels” (photograph) and Sheldon Ickes “Winter Night” (acrylic painting).<br />
The entire exhibit, as well as the five winning pieces, can be viewed at KentCreates.com.<br />
Kneisler is a Kent-based songwriter. He performs solo and as a member of The Whateverly Brothers, a maritime trio with a wide range of musical styles. Eggers is a visual artist that uses photography, sculpture and painting to express himself.<br />
Seattle-based artist Ross studied at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, Connecticut College and Yale. After earning degrees at the University of Iowa, Ross moved to Seattle in 1968. She has exhibited her art at Seattle Art Museum and many regional galleries, as well as nationally and internationally. Peto is a Kent teacher by day, artist by night (and weekends and holidays), who loves to paint, draw, draw digitally into her computer, do scratchboard and sew quilts. Ickes is another Kent-based artist. He is known for both drawing and painting.<br />
Kent Creates is a community of imagination and inspiration for anyone who creates or seeks to be inspired by creativity. Creative work of all kinds may be shared on KentCreates.com. Kent Creates is free to use and anyone can sign up; there is no requirement to live in Kent.</div>

pinwheels catch the local breezes and spin, drawing the eyes of passersby.
The pinwheels are arranged in the shape of two arrows colliding. The
movement from the wind will make the arrows appear to be moving.The fence is a visual representation of the
current political discourse. The 24 hour political news cycle always evokes new
conversations in the community and opposing views about the state of the

<h3>
New Art at the Burien Community Center!</h3>
<span style="font-family: "calibri" , sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">The Burien Community Center is currently presenting the works of photographer <i>Michael Eggers</i> until the end of May 2017.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "calibri" , sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">In the artist’s words:<i>
I enjoy creating texture-focused and almost abstracted photography.
Seeking interesting compositions in every day scenes or objects is a fun
challenge. Changing my point of view and altering the focus of my gaze
aids in my creation process. Finding moments of simple beauty is a daily
goal. </i></span><i><span style="font-family: "calibri" , sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">Beauty
is everywhere, the key is that you have to slow down and look for it.
In our fast paced world many people walk or drive by the same areas day
after day and miss many small wonders. I enjoy photography because at a
moment’s notice I can capture these daily treasures. </span></i><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "calibri" , sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">More information about the artist can be found at </span><a href="http://www.arteggers.com/"><span style="color: #0563c1; font-family: "calibri" , sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">www.arteggers.com</span></a><br />

<b>Inspired by Fort Nisqually</b><br />
<i>Sept. 17, 2016 – January 7, 2017</i><br />
Artwork inspired by the historical Fort Nisqually of the mid-19<sup>th</sup> century and the day-to-day life in a living history museum is on display in the new temporary exhibit, <em>Inspired by Fort Nisqually</em>. This juried art exhibition opens to the public on September 17 and will be on display through January 7, 2017. <br />
“It’s exciting to be able to showcase some of our local talent,” said exhibit curator Claire Keller-Scholz. “All of the pieces on display were created by local artists within the last three years, and were chosen by a panel of judges for this show.” <br />
Submissions included paintings, photographs, scrimshaw done with real India ink, and 3-D works that take inspiration from historical artifacts around the Fort. Some of the art was created by volunteer re-enactors as part of their historic emersion process, and other pieces were submitted by visitors and artists just stopping by for a brief trip to the past.<br />
<em>Inspired by Fort Nisqually</em> provides a chance to slow down and contemplate history from an artist’s perspective. View the varying techniques used to highlight emotions, the use of different mediums to convey specific characteristics, and survey the unique works that bring new perspective to familiar scenes.<br />
The majority of the artworks are available for sale, with a portion of the proceeds going towards Fort Nisqually. The jury that selected the works for the show have awarded “Best in Show” to Gary Gillespie for “Salish Matron Mask”, with “Honorable Mention” prizes going to Richard Repp for his scrimshaw piece “The Right Whales”, and Leah Amyakar for her assemblage “1850 Medicine Cabinet”. Visitors will have a chance to vote on their favorite for the “People’s Choice” award, decided upon at the end of exhibit. For the young ones, there will be a variety of hands-on activities including coloring sheets and take-home crafts.<br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; margin: 0px;">EVERETT — Whether used for Halloween,
Thanksgiving or all autumn, glass pumpkins remain popular in our region years
after they were first introduced. Visit the Schack Art Center today to see the
proof. You’ll find about 700 blown-glass gourds displayed in a gigantic pumpkin
patch in the middle of the Schack’s gallery. It’s all part of the art center’s
free sixth annual <strong style="box-sizing: inherit; line-height: inherit;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; margin: 0px;">Schack-toberfest</span></strong>,
which continues through Sept. 25.Most of the glass pumpkins offered for sale in
a range of sizes, colors, shapes and prices — were made in the Schack’s hot
shop. The most popular of the glass pumpkins are orange, of course, said Maren
Oates of the Schack staff. “But lots of people enjoy the non-traditional colors
that might work better with their home decor,” Oates said. “Collectors who have
been coming for years will be excited to see the new color combinations and
textures that our glassblowers Jo Andersson and Jesse Kelly have added this
year.” The Schack’s primary caution in the pumpkin patch?“Just like with real
pumpkins, you never want to pick the glass pumpkins up by the stem,” Oates
said. On the gallery walls around the pumpkin patch look for autumn-themed
paintings, photos and more by the likes of Kelly Sooter, Jackie Cort, Shannon
Tipple-Leen, Bonnie Johnson, Stephen Yates, Laurie Richardson, Kathy Rinaldi,
Michael Eggers, Helen Drummond, Andy Friedlander, Melissa T. Newell, Jennifer
MacLean, Fran Kaufman, Janie Olsen and many more. The Schack also offers free
activities for kids from 1 to 4 p.m. Sept. 17 and 24 and the opportunity
through Oct. 30 to make your own glass pumpkin for $60 in the Schack’s hot
shop. Check <a href="http://www.schack.org/events" style="-webkit-transition: 0.25s ease-out; border-bottom-width: 0.0625rem; box-sizing: inherit; cursor: pointer; line-height: inherit; transition: 0.25s ease-out;" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">schack.org/events</span></a> for complete

5 to 9 p.m. Sept. 22 at the Schack. Tickets are $25, or $20 for Schack members,

Admission includes a souvenir Schack pint glass. And, that night, guests get a
10 percent discount on any pumpkins they buy from the patch. Proceeds benefit
the Schack, which won the state’s 2014 Governor’s Award for Outstanding Arts
Organization. Those who attend the fundraiser can wet their whistles with a
pint from Scuttlebutt, Diamond Knot or Lazy Boy Brewing and enjoy tasty bites
from Lombardi’s Italian restaurant. </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; margin: 0px;">Hear live music from the
indie duo The Winterlings in the pumpkin patch and watch Jesse Kelly
demonstrating glass blowing in the hot shop. Buy a $10 raffle ticket for the
chance to make a large glass pumpkin with Kelly and his team. Pints

panels by a bunch of local artists and a first-come, first-served Goblet
&Pint Grab. If you can grab one of 30 handblown glasses by artists Aaron
LaChaussee, Jesse Nelson and Isaac Feuerman, it’s yours for only $25.The center

The Gallery at City Hall Shoreline in conjunction with Shoreline Lake Forest Park Arts Council is proud to announce a group exhibition on the general theme of nature and the machine, a juxtaposition of seemingly opposing forces. In a range of media from photography to painting to sculpture, six artists reveal the unexpected correspondences between the natural and the human-made.<br />
On View: August 10 – October 10, 2016, 9:00-5:00 M-F, 3rd floor City Hall <br />

<span class="subtitle"><b>About the Gallery</b></span> </div>
The Gallery at Shoreline City Hall visually enhances the facility as a work and community gathering space while celebrating and encouraging the talents of regional artists. Artwork on the 2nd and 3rd floors is rotated quarterly and each show includes an Open House event to introduce the artists and their work to the public. Exhibits usually include 2-D artwork by three artists plus small sculpture by one additional artist in the covered pedestals. A few pieces in this rotating display may be found on the 1st floor as teasers for what can be found above. Artwork from many Shoreline artists has been featured but artists from around the Puget Sound region and as far away as Oregon and British Columbia have also been included. All work is for sale through the Shoreline-Lake Forest Park Arts Council. <br />
<br />
An art-filled facility was part of the vision of Bob Olander, City Manager when the current City Hall was built. At that time the gallery hanging system was installed and two pieces of permanent work, Limelight, the dogwood mural by Linda Beaumont and Cloud Bank, the lobby sculpture by Leo Berk, were included in the design-build process. The City soon moved the donated Dudley Carter totem pole to the lobby and hung long-term loaned work on the 4th floor. The first rotating Gallery was hung in time for the building’s opening celebration. <br />
<br />
The Gallery at Shoreline City Hall is a collaborative venture with the Shoreline-Lake Forest Park Arts Council as part of that non-profit organization’s long-time gallery program. Artists interested in being considered for a Gallery slot should submit a CD with 10 labeled images, a one page bio and one page artist’s statement to the Arts Council at 18560 1st Avenue NE, Shoreline WA 98155.<br />
<b>For more information or to purchase work call the Arts Council at (206) 417-4645.</b><br />
<br />
We hope you enjoy exploring the art on all floors at City Hall and return each quarter for a new look.<br />

<span style="line-height: 1.2em;">Snohomish artist Michael Eggers’ temporary art installation, “Salmon Run,” can now be viewed at Dayton Street and Second Avenue South as part of Edmonds Arts Commission’s “On the Fence” program.</span></div>
<div>
<br />
The installation is a reminder of the salmon spawning runs through local rivers.<br />
“Salmon are a part of our Northwest identity,” Eggers said. “It is our responsibility to sustain their habitat for the future.”<br />
<br />
The art features salmon silhouettes cut out of plywood and painted in sparkle spray paint to reflect sunlight. The silhouettes are arranged in a repeated infinity symbol pattern symbolizing the endless pursuit of environmental stewardship.<br />
<br />
Eggers is a self-taught photographer, sculptor and painter. He said his preference is for the abstract because of the way abstraction is left open to interpretation by the viewer.<br />
His work has been shown at the Schack Art Center, Shoreline Arts Festival, Saaski Gallery in Snohomish and artEAST Art Center in Issaquah.<br />
<br />
Three fence sites are available for art installations as part of “On the Fence”: the one at Dayton and Second, one on Sixth Avenue North and one just east of 700 Main Street at the Frances Anderson Center playfield. Artists are encouraged to apply.<br />
<br />
Information is available at <a href="http://www.edmondsartscommission.org/">www.edmondsartscommission.org</a> or by calling 425-771-0228. For more information on Michael Eggers, go to <a href="http://www.arteggers.com/">www.arteggers.com</a>.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Its a dandy of a lion.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
The first scout of spring.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Peering through green spears.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Decorated with spheres of dew.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Canary yellow, its color betrays it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Its been spotted, no turning back now.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
The mist carries downstream</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Over the falls and across the rocks</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
It lingers on the moss</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
It splashes down </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Back among the river population.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
