Willamette Valley Exhibition – Barking Dog Wines

May 5 – 28, 2022

During May, in addition to Nocturnes IV: Return to Elliott Bay in the East Gallery, artist David Haughton will display his four Willamette Valley paintings in Gallery 110’s smaller North Gallery.

Emory & Mary Fry, old friends of Haughton, planted their vineyards eight years ago high on the northern slopes of the Willamette Valley. They took chances, planting grape varieties that have been proven very successful elsewhere but are less known in the Pacific Northwest. This April 2022, they are bottling the first vintages from their Barking Dog Winery.

Each year their wine labels will feature works by one of their artist friends. Haughton’s paintings – views of their vineyards and the Willamette Valley to the east, south and west – will be featured this inaugural year.

Win/win

Barking Dog Winery will donate a portion of the proceeds of each bottle to featured charities & non-profits – this year that will include support for the Gallery 110 Emerging Artist Program.

We will be serving Barking Dog rosé at the exhibition reception May 6, 2022 from 4 – 5:30pm (it has been reported as superb). Email our Director, Shayley Timm if you would like to attend the reception on May 6th. You will be sent an invitation via return email.

Additionally, Haughton has pledged to donate all proceeds from the sale of any of the four Willamette Valley paintings to the Gallery 110 Emerging Artist Program. Please help support our Emerging Artist Program by giving one of these painting a nice new home or assist us by buying a case of this most-excellent wine (the Barking Dog website is scheduled to go live April 25, 2022).

You can also DONATE here – any amount will help.
