Shout Out
"My son recently got married with a little help from some Chamber members! Thanks to Laurel at The Bothell Florist for the picture perfect bouquets that had to survive the 100 degree heat! Thanks to Richard at OlsonDesign who designed the wedding bands using the bride's grandmother's diamonds. The table arrangements came from the Country Village Shops Farmers Market and the linen rentals from Sweet Buffet Lady. It was fun to take a little of Bothell with us to Plain, WA!" - Submitted by Kim Monson, Bothell Chamber.

TSUGA Fine Art & Framing Presents: "Northern Exposure" By Suzanne Burnell
Opening Reception Friday, August 22
5:00 - 8:00 PM

Suzanne Burnell Each of Suzanne's landscape paintings, in this collection of pastels, offers us a view of the natural world and countryside, and speaks to our sense of place in the northern latitudes. As you view her paintings, you will find yourself standing at a prairie cross-roads, enjoying the solitude of a summer evening or appreciating the patterns the late afternoon sun makes as it strikes a mountain peak. Suzanne's art will be on display at TSUGA Fine Art & Framing on Main Street until October 17.

Gallery hours: Tuesday - Thursday 10:00 AM - 6:00 PM, Friday 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM, Saturday 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM.
