Floating Sculptures from Behind the Redwood Curtain:
History of Decoys and Those who Made Them

Exploring the local history of water fowling, this exhibit highlights
wildfowl decoys and those who made them. Presented as both a tool for
hunting and as an art form, decoys created by some of this region’s
finest carvers will be on exhibit. Displaying the incredible and
meticulous craftsmanship by such decoy carvers as Bill McLellan,
Frank Deuel, William “Bill” Hale, Bill Pinches and Vernon Dahl
and paintings by D. Nicolson Miller, Floating Sculptures helps tell
the story of Humboldt County’s rich water fowling tradition.

A member’s only opening reception will take place January 30, 2014
from 4:30 – 6:30 p.m.  Hors d'oeuvres will be served along with a
beer and wine bar.  A weekend hunting trip, original work of art by
D. Nicolson Miller, and hand carved duck decoy will be raffled off at
the exhibit closing.  Tickets will be available at the event and in
the museum gift shop.

Eureka Theater’s 75th Anniversary

In celebration of the 75th anniversary of the Eureka Theater, the
Clarke Museum has a new exhibit showcasing snapshots in their
history. Come down, take a seat in recently restored historic theater
chairs and watch trailers which premiered in 1939 and look at
photographs which document the theater overtime. Stay tuned for a
weekend long celebration at the Eureka Theater during the first
weekend of March.
