Meet Artist Beth Yazhari During First Friday Art Walk , May 3rd, 5:00-7:30 pm

Portland artist Beth Yazhari collects delicate fragments of antique lace and embroidery from different cultures and combines them into intricate compositions that reference both East and West.

By rescuing discarded doilies and pieces of folk embroidery and recycling them into her beaded paintings, she intentionally collaborates with the creative spirit of women of the past. Her globally inspired pieces, with their intricate symmetry, painted “stitches,” and richly layered fields of color, take inspiration from Persian carpets, quilts, and abstract expressionist paintings. Her reconstruction of traditional articles of women’s handiwork, particularly Victorian Era mourning veils, symbolizes a release of female energy and capacity from historical constraints.

Beth is the featured artist at the Fiber Arts Collective at 37 N. Third Street, Ashland, from May 3rd through June 29th, 2024. She will be present to visit with the public during First Friday Art Walk, May 3rd, 5 to 7:30 p.m.

Bill Thorndike Jr. remembered as community titan, treasured friend

Family, community members and longtime friends of Medford native Bill Thorndike Jr. were collectively at a loss for words over the weekend at the sudden loss of a man they say had a hand in nearly anything good to happen in Southern Oregon for much of the past half-century. Thorndike, 71, suffered a heart attack early Saturday morning, just following a Valentine’s Day spent with his wife, Angela Thorndike, at a family cabin on Whidbey Island in Washington’s Puget Sound.
