      Ryan Beckman is shown at Beckman Gallery II, 912 Main St., Grinnell. Ryan has taken over the family business following the passing of his dad, Jim, who opened his first Beckman Gallery in Newton in 1991. The business will continue to offer home décor, gifts and custom framing.       ​

By J.O. Parker
 
       A long-time Grinnell business will continue to operate under the same name, same location while offering the same friendly service.
     Beckman Gallery II announced recently that Ryan Beckman, son of the late Jim Beckman, founder of the business, has taken over the business and will continue in his father’s footsteps.
      Beckman Gallery II specializes in home décor, gifts and custom framing.
      The business is located at 912 Main St., Grinnell.
     Ryan, who grew up in the Waterloo/Cedar Falls area and spent several years traveling and sailing, was living near Burlington, VT where he operated a home remodeling business when he learned that his father, Jim, was ill.
      “Everything was going well, then dad got sick again,” Ryan said. “The cancer had come back and I decided to close up shop and move to Iowa to take care of him.”
       Ryan returned to Iowa in February of this year and took care of his dad until his passing on Aug. 6.
       “I had been helping at the shop and once my dad passed, I thought it would be good to keep the business going,” Ryan said.
        When asked about taking over the business, Ryan said it is a little surreal right now.
         “I like the people I am meeting and I like the craft of framing,” he said.
          Four long-time employees of Jim’s will remain at the business.
          “It’s a great team here,” said Ryan.
           Beckman Gallery II is open Monday – Friday, 10 a.m. – 5 p.m.; and Saturday, 10 – 4 p.m.
The business phone number is 641-236-3344.

​        The annual Friends of Drake Community Library fall book sale will be Saturday Oct. 8 from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. The sale will be held in the Caulkins Community Room of Drake Community Library, located at the corner of 5th Avenue and Park Street.  Admission is free and all are welcome. Each year the sale features thousands of books sorted by category for book lovers and bargain hunters to choose from.  
       “We’re very proud of our used book store inside the library that is open during regular library hours,” noted Jeff Dickey-Chasins, current FDCL President. “But the book sale really helps us highlight the wide variety of books we receive as donations throughout the year.  There will tables and tables of books to pick from so it’s a great way to stock up on reading material for fall and winter or maybe pick up some early holiday gifts.”
       The sale will include books in the following categories: children’s, cooking, health, fiction, non-fiction, romance, science fiction, gardening, the arts, poetry, travel, and much more. Hardback books are $1, paperback and children’s books are 50 cents.  All proceeds benefit the Friends of Drake Community Library in Grinnell.

​      The Greater Poweshiek Community Foundation (GPCF) and the Claude W. & Dolly Ahrens Foundation (CDAF) has kicked-off the year-end giving season with the annual We GIVE for Poweshiek County, a month-long fundraiser that started on Oct.1 and continues through Oct. 31.
     Nicole Brua-Behrens, Executive Director of Greater Poweshiek Community Foundation, invites givers across Poweshiek County and beyond to come together during “We GIVE” month, “to accomplish good things in our communities, for our neighbors and friends, for our first responders and veterans, for our environment and our children, for our schools and our graduates, for our present and our future.”
      This year’s “We GIVE” for Poweshiek County is stimulated by several matching challenges offered by private donors, the Greater Poweshiek Community Foundation along with the Board and Staff of the Claude W. and Dolly Ahrens Foundation. The matching challenges to help boost giving include Create a Legacy Through Endowments: The GPCF Board will match new endowed donor advised funds established on or after Oct. 1, 2022 with a maximum of $500 per new fund. Gifts to Meet Student Needs: Glenn and Ginger Sterk will match dollar for dollar every gift to the Dr. Kevin W. Sterk Elementary Student Needs Endowed Fund up to a total of $2,000; Brooklyn Community Giving Maximized: An anonymous donor will match $2 for every $1 given up to a combined total of $50,000 to the following endowed funds benefitting the Brooklyn community: Brooklyn Community Foundation, Brooklyn Historical Society, Brooklyn Fire Department, Citizens Scholarship of BGM-Dollars for Scholars, Michael J. Manatt Community Center and the East Poweshiek County Ambulance funds; Lessen the Burden on CDAF’s Partner Programs: The CDAF Board and Staff will match dollar for dollar every gift to the CDAF Administrative Operating Fund up to a total of $50,000 so that 100 percent of donations benefit the Partner Programs.
       “We GIVE” shines a spotlight on the work of local nonprofit organizations and causes. Julie Gosselink, President and CEO of the Claude W. and Dolly Ahrens Foundation shared, “We GIVE month is a time to highlight issues that continue to affect members of our community. Our goal is to rejuvenate our community, build for the future, and reinforce our guiding principle to grow community through giving and to leave it better than you found it.”
        Donors may specify which fund or project they wish to support when sending contributions to GPCF, P.O. Box 344, Grinnell, IA, 50112, or CDAF, P.O. Box 284, Grinnell, IA 50112, donating online at www.greaterpcf.org,www.ahrensfamilyfoundation.org or contacting the Foundation Offices at 641-236-5518. GPCF and the Claude W. and Dolly Ahrens Foundation partner through the Community Support Services program to provide back-office services for programs and donors.
