Community jam, Mary Flower plays free show March 5
Columbia Center for the Arts is kicking off its 10th anniversary with a day of free art events for the public on March 5 from 1-5 p.m. All are welcome to come and enjoy this day of art, which includes a musical instrument art exhibition, music in the theater, and a cake-cutting by the mayor in the lobby.
In the gallery will be the March art exhibition “Instrumental: Handcrafted Instruments & Inspired Art.” The brainchild of local guest exhibition curators Sarah Burr Arnold and Jim Drake, and over a year in the making, the show offers a close-up look at the beauty and precision of finely crafted instruments and the art inspired by those pieces. In the theater, local musician and music expert Drake will emcee an afternoon of music, starting with a 1-2:30 p.m. community musical jam session (so bring your instrument and a song to share). At 2:30 p.m. Mayor Paul Blackburn will join in for a cake-cutting to commemorate 10 years of the Columbia Art Center bringing art to life in the Gorge. Then at 3 p.m., the fun continues with the musical talents of Gorge luthiers Bob Dill, Gordon and Char Mayer, Craig Wilson, specialty instrument maker John Marvin Kite and more for a unique Luthier Showcase.
Headline performer, Mary Flower, is a well-known blues/fingerstyle guitarist whose beautiful music will complement the sounds of handmade instruments. All of the events are free — get a seat early!
