Rachel Blumberg is a multi-media artist and educator who works in the fields of visual art, music, and stop motion animation. As a visual artist she makes paintings, drawings, found object pieces and other work inspired by dream land, folklore, history, nature, and people’s stories. She shows regularly as well as creating many commissioned works. As a musician she has performed, toured and recorded with many widely acclaimed artists including The Decemberists, M. Ward, Bright Eyes, Califone, Norfolk & Western, Laura Gibson, Death Vessel, Tara Jane O’Neil, Michael Hurley and many more, as well as composing and performing her own music. As a stop motion animator she has created shorts and music videos for Nada Surf, Tom Hagerman (Devotchka), and Musee Mechanique among others. As an educator she teaches drums and general music, stop motion animation, painting, and mixed media arts to kids and adults privately, in workshops, camps, and has also worked for many public and private schools and non-profits. Originally from Portland, OR, she now lives in Rhode Island.
Annie Beedy grew up riding horses, drawing spaceships and skipping class in the idyllic wilds of Northern California. After a failed attempt at institutionalized education, she headed to the Pacific Northwest where she became involved with that region’s incredibly vibrant music and arts scene. These days she identifies as a nature based designer and photographer. Often she can be found covered in dust in her woodshop handcarving kitchen tools, plant stands and furniture as well as designing gardens, interior spaces and floral arrangements. Best known photographically for her casual, photojournalistic portraiture, she captures intimate, real moments in human lives. Annie shoots with natural and available light. No bells and whistles needed, just a good instinct for light and recognition of the right moments. Her work has appeared in Rolling Stone, Spin, Vogue, Nylon, Dwell and more – and on the sides of Portland’s Tri-Met buses and countless blogs.
Cost $75 for all three days or $30 each day.
