January 2024 – Geiser Grand Hotel
1996 Main St., Baker City
The Geiser Grand Hotel is hosting their “First” First Friday, January 5, from 5 to 8 p.m.
Presenting featured artist, local photographer Tom Reed.
Tom Reed’s work is centered on the experience of awe at the sight of a landscape (explained in his TEDx presentation), and he hopes it leads to the consideration that nature itself is divine, sacred, and that stewardship, as opposed to the dominant utilitarian view, is the only sane attitude.
