The Great Salt Lick Art Auction is now an annual event to benefit Parkinson's research. It was featured on a recent broadcast of OPB's Oregon Art Beat television show. Simultaneously, the program's premier showing was held at the Thursday Art Night Movie at the Eltrym Theater, sponsored by Baker Art Guild. Here is a link to the OPB program, featuring Whit Deschner and the whole community, from ranchers, to art lovers, to the bovine artists themselves. And here is a link to a humorous promotional video featuring Baker County Residents.
