SOS Tillamook—the Prevention Program of Tillamook Family Counseling Center, is excited to once again be gathering artwork from local students to be featured in the 2022 Tillamook County Calendar.

For 2022, the theme is “We are all in this together” – middle school artists are encouraged to show how you navigate the changes with new ways of doing everyday activities; how we can help others deal with the stress and uncertainties with kindness, hope and support.
