"The Wildflowers of Weed" ~ Artist Reception


Nikki Lee Hill and Brenda Woods have spent the last 12 months photographing and interviewing the small country town of Weed, CA. Weed is a beautiful mountain town with a wide range of personalities, beleifs, interests, and well we're basically a melting pot of diversity.

"Wildflowers of Weed" is a portrait of Weed as seen through its people, and it's been the talk of town here, we're all ready to see the final pictures chosen and the stories captured. The two artists will be putting together a book of the show, coming soon.....

The reception is Tuesday June 30th, 2009 from 5:3opm until 8pm at the College of the Siskiyous Library Lobby. There will be live music from "The Shaver's and all their Folking Instruments", this couple plays everything from the dulcimer, fiddle, guitar, and mandolin.... The banjo will only be played by Billy Shaver, who by the way represented Northern California in the Grange Hall statewide talent show!!!!

This artists reception is gonna be a big event here in Weed!! Everyone, and their neighbors, family, and friends will be here in attendance reading each other's stories, some of which we've heard before, and some are all new to town!!
For directions please contact College of the Siskiyous (530) 938-5555
