ATTENTION QUILTERS

Presented By: Mariah Rocker, Public Programs and Exhibits Manager at Oregon Black Pioneers

Program Description:

People of African descent have lived and worked in Oregon since before the founding of the earliest English-speaking settlements in the Americas. Despite this, the popular narrative of our state's history excludes the experiences of African Americans before the mid-20th century. This erasure is the result of historic legal and social marginalization that contributes to the ignorance of Oregon's Black heritage, as well as influences contemporary disparities in housing access, community investment, and policing. For this presentation, Oregon Black Pioneers will attempt to correct the record by highlighting key individuals and events that characterize Oregon's unique and centuries-old Black history.

JOHN FROHNMAYER

APRIL 7

GRANTS PASS MUSEUM OF ART

2pm - 4pm Free

John Frohnmayer is a retired attorney from the U.S. state of Oregon. He was the fifth chairman of the National Endowment for the Arts, a program of the United States government. He was appointed by President George H. W. Bush in 1989, and served until 1992.

John will be talking about his newest book dealing with the adventures of Lara Cole.

Trouble knows how to find Lara.

In the sequel to Blood and Faith, museum curator Lara Cole is sent to Oregon to review the progress of a developing art museum and cultural center. It should be routine, but instead she is chased, shot at, and forced to seek the help of FBI agent George Graham, with whom she survived a shoot-out in Russia during a previous assignment.

Messing about in the art world proves to be risky business that tests Lara’s grit and determination, and maybe, just maybe, rekindles romance.
