We will be hearing from her and talking about the subject “Fear & Belonging” as part of the speaker series “Consider This.” Each year\, Oregon Humanities has a different topic for this series. We were lucky enough to receive a grant from Oregon Humanities with the library to offer this series in Creswell. \nOur conversation with the indigenous presenter will focus on traditions\, the loss of those traditions\, and reclaiming or continuing them. She is an expert on Kalapuya weaving and works to pass that information on. Her work and expertise fits very well into the theme of Fear and Belonging. What is more terrifying than watching cultural traditions move from the active world to a museum? And do cultural artifacts belong in museums\, and if so\, which museums do they belong to? Her work weaving replica baskets for museums touches on this perfectly. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n These talks are free and open to the public\, though might not be appropriate for children.
