Mt. Angel Chamber of Commerce Hosts “Art in Mt. Angel”
August 24, 6:00 p.m. at The Grant Company

The Mt. Angel Chamber of Commerce presents “Art in Mt. Angel” featuring another great showcase of local talent.  This event is a continuation of the strong history of art and culture in Mt. Angel.  The art show will feature artist Donna Mattson from Silverton and fine wines from Hansen Vineyards located in Monitor.

“Art in Mt. Angel” will be held on August 24 from 6:00 - 8:00 p.m. at The Grant Company, 135 E. Charles St.  The event is free and voluntary donations will be accepted with proceeds going towards the flower baskets. 

Donna Mattson - “I have been working the past 30 years in the Portland metropolitan area. I have been fortunate to have studied with some of Portland's best artists. The techniques and mediums I've worked with include acrylics, etching, lithography and mono prints. Adding encaustics to my repertoire has enabled me to layer the techniques used in painting, collage and printmaking to create new, sensually exciting pieces,” says Mattson.

Hanson Vineyards is a small boutique winery located in Monitor.  “With our “hands-on” style, we like to think that our role as grape grower plays as important a role as that of winemaker.  Farming has been a part of our family’s legacy for many generations,” says the Hanson family.

Join us for great art and wine at The Grant Company on August 24 at 6:00 p.m.
