Musical Connections Across the Landscape Watercolor artist Susan Chambers created this year’s poster art on the cover. The Coos Bay estuary creates a community through all its offerings: abundant beauty, acting as a bridge between the sea and the land, home to all sorts of critters and surprising us every day with fresh views and rejuvenation. Those of us who live here are all linked in some way through the estuary’s bountiful properties, just as music links us all, with its enrichment of the human spirit.
