So what’s the deal with the festival? Other than poorly managed which we all know, anyone has any insights if it’s even happening this year? Last year we had headliners confirmed by now.
Hi all, new to the EDS diagnosis but always new I had unique type of skin and healing type. I’m now in my 40s, started to notice my skin getting that “old lady” look where it’s loose and looks hella dry. Has anyone found treatment, lotions or anything to help with the appearance of the skin? I’ve always used oil after the shower and it’s been great, but this new “saggy” look is something i haven’t been able to figure out. Any recs?
Not my event, but wanted to share this to help get more visibility across our community. Great cause and great event to be part of.
EVENT DETAILS
ARTIST SUBMISSION FORM
The first Family Kitchen Art Gallery Pop Up — an event we hope will become a cherished tradition in the Bend arts community launches in June. Central Oregon artists are invited to be part of this inaugural show. Presented by FREAK’N ART and Family Kitchen, this unique event combines a traditional gallery installation at Open Space Event Studios with the reach of a digital silent auction platform, displayed as part of the Bend Block Party, a celebration of arts and community in the heart of Bend's Central District.
All proceeds support Family Kitchen, a 40 year old organization based in Bend, providing 12,000 meals to our community each month. Your participation as an artist directly nourishes our neighbors.
Theme: NOURISH
Our inaugural theme is Nourish — a broad and evocative concept open to interpretation. We invite you to explore what it means to nourish the soul, the body, or the community. This theme connects deeply to Family Kitchen’s mission of providing meals and dignity to those in need, while leaving wide creative latitude for artists across all mediums and practices.
WHY?
Here's what makes this opportunity different — artists choose how much of their sale is contributed to Family Kitchen. Think of it like a gallery commission, except instead that percentage goes toward feeding our neighbors right here in Central Oregon. Tax laws don't allow artists to claim the value of their work, only the value of the materials to make it. What artists create has value and they deserve to be paid for it. Full stop.

We're so excited to partner with Family Kitchen and help support the incredible work they do! We love that artists can choose how much of the sale they want to donate, an acknowledgement that artists deserve to be compensated for their work ❤️✨.
