West Marches At Dry Falls
Feb 27 @ 7:30 pm – 10:00 pm
Dry Falls Brewing Co.

Dry Falls Village has been isolated for as long as anyone can remember. Her inhabitants grow weary and thirst for adventure. Now, they decide, is the time to venture into the wilderness and explore!

Do you have what it takes to brave the dangers of the unknown? Will you steel yourself and venture to uncover sights unseen? Can you handle what lies beyond the borders of the village?

This is West Marches!

The Bearded Dragons Inn hosts their weekly West Marches game. This is a drop in game for all to join. If you have never played before come and join us. Our amazing community will teach you all you need to know. If you have years, or even decades of experience stop on by as well as you’ll experience a whole new style of play. For more information check out our website: https://sites.google.com/view/west-marches-at-dry-falls/home

Please note that this game is family friendly but anyone under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian at all times.

Lines and Structures art exhibit
Feb 28 @ 10:00 am – 4:00 pm
West Main Artists Cooperative

Communications professional and artist Thomas Koenig will present the architectural photography exhibit “Lines and Structures” at West Main Artists Co-op Feb. 5 through March 2.

The exhibit is constructed around architectural photography and how lines shape the skylines of cities and define structures. “Often the lines, shapes, and structures of buildings create textures in a city’s landscape,” Koenig said. “It can be one individual detail on a building or the combination of different line systems on different buildings that create interesting content.
Color can intensify the lines of architectural structures and build its own texture, but color lives from the reflection of light, so the light positioning on a building creates its own lines, shape and textures. Signage, too, represents its own system of lines and structures and can destroy or accommodate a cityscape.”

The exhibit will be open for free public viewing Tuesday-Saturday, 10 a.m.-4 p.m. The free and public reception will be Thursday, Feb. 21, 5-9 p.m. during the city monthly ArtWalk. It will be one of three exhibits in February.
