OLYMPIA — The office of Lt. Gov. Brad Owen is displaying a collection of photography by Clallam County commissioner candidate Linda Barnfather of Sequim.
Barnfather, the legislative assistant to state Rep. Kevin Van De Wege, D-Sequim, is running against Port of Port Angeles Commissioner Jim McEntire, a Sequim Republican, in the Nov. 8 election.
Owen and Barnfather are both Democrats.
Barnfather could not be reached for comment Friday evening.
Owen announced that Barnfather’s photography — taken in Washington state and overseas — will be displayed at the Office of the Lieutenant Governor through December.
“I love living on the Olympic Peninsula, but I do consider myself a citizen of the world,” Barnfather said in a news release.
“Travel and observation are truly a passion, and there is a constant craving for both.”
The display features images of the Olympic Peninsula, Seattle’s Pike Place Market, the Palouse, Mexico and India.
Exhibits in Owens’ office are rotated quarterly. They are chosen by a council chaired by Linda Owen, wife of Lt. Gov. Owen.
Brad Owen serves the state as president of the Senate. He is the acting governor in the absence of Gov. Chris Gregoire.
The Office of the Lieutenant Governor is open to the public Mondays through Fridays from 8 a.m. to
5 p.m.
It is located in Room 220 of the Legislative Building at the state Capitol, 416 Sid Snyder Ave. S.W., Olympia.
