In Eugene-Springfield, there’s no doubt that beer is an art. But what about the art that cometh alongside the brew? As part of Springfield’s Second Friday Art Walk (5 to 8 pm), the Springfield Museum presents an opening reception for Behind the Label: The Art of Oregon Craft Beers, an exhibit featuring the graphic art of breweries including Ninkasi, Hop Valley, Deschutes and Gigantic, among others. Come back at 6 pm Thursday, Feb. 20, for a Q&A with Tony Figoli, the head of Ninkasi’s art department.

Due to the snow-ice-rain-clusterflake, Eugene’s First Friday ArtWalk is rescheduled for 5:30 pm Friday, Feb. 14, starting at DIVA Gallery with stops at The Jazz Station, Pacific Rim Art Guild, Goldworks Jewelry Art Studio and Oregon Art Supply. 

The Cascadia Forest Defenders are also presenting their first-ever art show, Art from the Frontlines, 5 to 9 pm Friday, Feb. 14, at the ESAP Gallery. Art will include photography from the “White Castle treesit, paintings done in the tree tops,” and more. Never seen a treesit before? No problem. Look for the mock treesit in the gallery.
