Barrel of fun
Adam Radtke has worked in Oregon vineyards for five years and has done woodcraft since he was a kid in his dad’s workshop, so combining the two was natural.

From humble beginnings in a garage to being named one of 10 “American Made” award winners by Martha Stewart, Portland’s Mudshark Studios is rising fast.

Fiber art show
Five fiber artists are presenting work and programs at the Architectural Heritage Center through February and March.
AHC’s library open house

The Oregon Garden’s 6th annual quilt show takes place the last weekend of January.
