“Those with a cultural appetite have long enjoyed a rich and varied island diet. But the smorgasbord of literary tasters served up over the next few days could convert even the adamantly uncouth – and you can get your mind candy without so much as opening a book.We intend to offer an accessible cross-section of different artistic media, says Nancy Frey, executive of Bainbridge Island Arts and Humanities Council. That’s the word on Thursday’s reading and slide show by three cousin artists, Cuz, 7:30 p.m. at the Bainbridge Library. Cynthia Sears, coordinator for the event, said poet and translator Olivia Sears, and novelist and short story writer Sylvia Brownrigg, are both familiar with the Bainbridge artistic community.They will present their work with painter and printmaker Molly Barker, who Sears says shares their commitment to making a living from art.Which is why they are in a position to examine the issues surrounding working in the world of arts without institutional support at Friday’s panel discussion, at 10:45 a.m. at Bainbridge High School.Their lesson will in any case stand one in good stead to take the artistic plunge Sunday and hear Terry Tempest Williams read from her latest book, Leap, at 4 p.m. at Eagle Harbor Book Store.Identified by Newsweek magazine as likely to make a considerable impact on the political, economic and environmental issues facing the western states this decade, Williams sets out to explore her past through a comparison with the world of Hieronymous Bosch’s paintings. Williams says she always writes through the bias of gender, geography and culture – and her bias for Bainbridge should be worth exploiting as the week draws to a close. It will be great to hear new voices talking on artistic issues familiar to all of us says Sears.* * * * *Contact BIAHC on 842-7901 regarding Cuz and the panel discussion, and Eagle Harbor Book Company for information concerning Terry Tempest Williams’ reading on 842-5332.”
