During the month of January, the Columbia Center for the Arts hosted an art exhibition in the Gallery titled Women of Substance: The Art of Judith Cunningham and Ellen Dittebrandt. The Center pledged their portion of the sales from cards from these two artists to be donated to the Mosier Fire Department, in honor of artist Ellen Dittebrandt’s volunteer work in Mosier.

Columbia Center for the Arts Executive Director Kerry Cobb last month presented Fire Chief Jim Appleton and the Mosier Fire Department board with a check for $800.
