Issue: April 10, 2014
Good morning, readers!
If you like fun and interesting photography, this week's issue is for
you. We asked five local photographers, some of them regular CN&R
contributors, to submit images that represent their unique perspectives
of our town and region. Enjoy!
Also in this issue: We take a look at proposed cuts to city funding for
the arts and community organizations; Butte County gets closer to a
fracking ban; a glimpse into the lives of fairy shrimp; Basque rockers
Berri Txarrak head to town; and we peek into the living rooms (and
hallways and dining rooms) of local art collectors.
Happy reading!
