Hello to All,
If only we could stop talking about the weather!
Could this really be it? So warm. So little snow. Could spring really come early
this year? Could break up be the easiest ever? Regardless, March is always a
wonderful month full of festive occasions and so much more sun and light that we
feel drunk on our (usually delusional) spring fever. It's impossible to help it
- everyone gets out a lot more in March than they did in January and February
and the talk of the impending busy summer is just around the corner. While
you're out and about soaking up these longer days, think of the
Squirrel...
Art
Happenings
The wonderful still life paintings from Tony
Crocetto's art students are still hanging at the Squirrel. March's artist
cancelled, so we'll see what develops. No opening scheduled for this month at
this point. But we may be able to hang something new and interesting even if
just for a few weeks during this month of many out of town visitors. Stop in and
be surprised at what's on the walls, or not! Meanwhile, in the works for April
are photographs by Anina Bolt. Artists and photographers interested
in showing work at Flying Squirrel can contact Anita to find out what's
involved, we have openings we would like to fill, so get creating!
Also, watch for announcements about a call for artists for an August
group show featuring art and photography that shows off my favorite subject
matter: food!
Oosik Ski
Race
March in Talkeetna has become Oosik month. This fun
classic ski race will be held in Flying Squirrel's neighborhood this year, as of
now scheduled to start and end at the Mile 11 gravel pit right next door! We
will be catering the finish line with two tasty soups and delicious fresh bread.
Sign up to ski or volunteer at http://www.denalinordicskiclub.org/ and
think of the Squirrel if you need coffee, snacks, Sunday breakfast or a pizza
dinner - in honor of this year's Oosik being right next door PIZZA
NIGHT WILL BEGIN AT 2pm on Saturday, March 15!
