Here the legendary wild beauty of the Oregon Coast combined with the extraordinary landscape to attract the artists who began what is now recognized as “One of America’s 100 Best Art Towns.” A dozen independently owned galleries on Hemlock and Spruce streets display works from leading Northwest artists, who range from “up and coming” to well established, but in Cannon Beach, art doesn’t stop at the gallery door. The city of Cannon Beach promotes an annual public sculpture program, Sculpture Without Walls, which places large sculptures in outdoor settings in Cannon Beach. Art festivals mark the seasons. Stormy Weather begins in November and Spring Unveiling takes place on the first weekend in May. The Sandcastle Contest in June yields art out of beach sand, while its annual poster is a work of art on its own. The tufted puffin, the inspiration for the Georgia Gerber bronze on this page, is the unofficial Cannon Beach mascot. Thousands of tufted puffins make their summer home at Haystack Rock, a national wildlife refuge and one of the most photographed sites in America. Come to Cannon Beach for the art, but don’t forget to enjoy its eclectic shopping, distinctive dining, indulgent spas, theatre, hiking, biking, surfing, and much more.
