Cycle Oregon in Oakridge
We had an exciting and blustery day in Oakridge on September 13th, as Cycle Oregon participants doubled the population of Oakridge for a day. There were numerous booths set-up in the Oregon Crafted area, including Oregon Crafted artists and other local Oakridge artists participating. It was fun to meet people from around the country and the world, and send them home with art made in Oregon!
