Hang out in Yachats

A gala auction this Saturday, Sept. 21, will give art fans the chance to take home one of the 33 unique banners on display in this year’s Yachats Banner Project.

Now in its seventh year, the project is coordinated by Yachats artist Michael Guerriero, with sponsorship and assistance from Polly Plumb Productions.

The banners have been on display throughout Yachats since July, hanging proudly from light posts along Highway 101. Each banner is roughly 18″ by 48” with a rounded end and painted with acrylic paints. This year’s theme is “Yachats Sings.”

Guerriero also prints notecards from the banners. Previous years’ banner notecards are available at the Yachats Chamber office.

Saturday’s gala auction will run from 5 to 7 pm in the Yachats Commons, 441 Hwy. 101. There will be an artists’ reception at 5 pm followed by the silent and live auctions, with beer, wine and food available.
