Our galleries showcase a variety of mediums from traditional paintings, sculpture, and photography to printmaking, fiber, and mixed media. Stop by anytime and meet these working artists and experience their beautiful works. Stop by on the first Friday of each month, year ’round, to view new showings. Music and libations will be available.

Saturday, Nov. 9
Bend Ale Run
- SAT – This breathtaking half marathon course is brand new to Central Oregon. Racers start on NW Crossing Road just north of Summit High School and head west into the new Tree Farm housing development. After a short section of gravel, runners will get to experience what brand new asphalt feels like underfoot as they follow the black ribbon of new roadways through this very scenic section of the course. Sweeping views of the Cascade Mountain Range allow you to see Mt. Hood, Mt. Jefferson, Three Fingered Jack, North, Middle, and South Sisters, and finally Mt. Bachelor.
Bend Ale Fest

Then, hard-charging string maestros The HillBenders join Williams for a bluegrass twist on the rock music of Tom Petty. “The HillBenders share my passion for Petty’s music,” notes Keller. “And they’re kick-butt pickers with amazing attention to detail.” It’s an unconventional tribute, complete with audience sing-alongs.
