Friends raffle

 On February 24th, the Ocean Shores Friends of the Library will begin Raffling another original, signed Elton Bennett  serigraph. This gorgeous work of art, entitled, “They Speak by Silence,” has been cleaned and re-matted.  

Elton Bennett was a renowned Hoquiam artist who died in an airplane crash 1974. His works focused on the Northwest scene and are especially prized locally. This serigraph depicts a group of hikers (or, some say, Quinault) gathered at the edge of the ocean with a backdrop of sand cliffs.  An evocative mist slips across the scene.

The serigraph is now on the display at the Ocean Shores Library and will remain there throughout the Raffle, which ends on November 9^th.  Tickets are $5 each, and take the form of self-serve numbered envelopes. You may enter as often as you wish and need not be present to win.

All proceeds benefit the Libraryуs Kids Summer Reading Program and the Teen Programs.  Thank you for your support.
