Iconic Hollywood rebel, director, and director John Huston won his only Academy Awards with the 1948 classic adventure drama, “The Treasure of the Sierra Madre.” Starring Humphrey Bogart, the film is the next offering of the Silver Screen Classics Film Series.
Bogie plays down-on-his-luck Fred C. Dobbs, who, along with a partner, meets grizzled prospector Howard, in an Oscar-winning performance by the director’s father, Walter Huston, who died in 1950. Together, this uneasy alliance goes in search of gold and ultimately learns of the devastating power and peril of greed.
Doors open at 7:00 p.m. for the 7:30 p.m. Saturday showing and 1:30 pm for the 2:00 p.m. Sunday showing. Tickets are available at the door, and advance tickets are available at Harbor Drug in Hoquiam, City Drug in Aberdeen, and at Brown Paper Tickets.
In celebration of creating Grays Harbor’s first arboretum, Westport Winery is hosting its inaugural Arbor Festival on Sunday, April 13, from noon to 4p.m. As part of this event, the Grays Harbor and Pacific County Master Gardeners will unveil a bench in the winery’s new Don Tapio Dwarf Conifer Collection in appreciation for Tapio’s considerable service to the community. This dedication will be held at 2 p.m. in the winery gardens. A reception will follow under the winery’s solar panels.
At 1 p.m. the winery will lead its weekly Backstage Winemaker’s Tour of their production facility. The price to join this tour is $5 per person. Wine club members may join this tour at no charge. Check in for this tour is 12:45 p.m. at the tasting bar.
At 3 p.m. winery co-owner, Kim Roberts will lead the first walking tour of the arboretum and a discussion of the winery’s design plans for the garden. All guests purchasing plants in the winery’s nursery will be given a free tree for Arbor Day. The winery’s arboretum was the brain child of retired WSU County Extension Agent Don Tapio.
For both the production and the arboretum tour good walking shoes and the ability to walk on rough surfaces over a moderate distance is required as these areas are working farms.
Jessica Marie Porter will be performing in the winery’s Farm to Fork Restaurant & Bakery from noon to 4 p.m. Full wine tasting will be offered at both of the winery’s bars (but not in the restaurant).
In May, the state celebrates the 100 year anniversary of the WSU Extension Program. Don Tapio’s advice to the Roberts family who created Westport Winery will be featured in a story about the impact of the extension program and agents.
