BELFAST - Although the new year has brought another round of small-business closures in downtown Belfast, city officials said last week they're hoping to hear a major piece of good economic news soon.
City Manager Joe Slocum said Tuesday that there are two potential buyers for Stinson Seafood, the crumbling sardine processing plant that occupies a prime slice of the waterfront. The city has been working with the potential buyers since June, with the city planner and city attorney both involved in the sale discussions, he said.

Now Mill Valley's sole serious art gallery, Robert Green Fine Arts this month hosts a showing of works by John Grillo, one of the earliest "action painters," abstractionists who worked athletically on generally large canvases. This exhibit includes pieces from the 1940s and '50s, as bright and beautiful today as when they were created. Unlike the despairing work of many postwar painters, Grillo's is exuberant, in keeping with Green's affinity for art that induces joy. 415/381-8776, www.rgfinearts.com.

Assembled by 20th century curator Joseph Traugott, several works by New Mexico artists who were supported, to some extent, by the post-Depression Works Progress Administration effort, transform the modest gallery space adjacent to the Governor's Office into thoughtful testimony on the close ties between our nation's collective romanticism of the American West and the economic hardships prior to World War II. Traugott's exceptional command of the era allows him to capably intersperse photography, gender and style to summon an immense sense of the scope through which New Mexico, in particular, was portrayed during President Franklin Delano Roosevelt's New Deal.
By contrasting these and other painters with exceptional printmaking examples by Kenneth Adams, Manville Chapman and E Boyd (repr...
