| Proposals for 2009 |
|
Proposals to make presentations at the 2009 Northwest History and Heritage Extravaganza are being accepted until Dec. 31.
“Rendezvous” is the Extravaganza’s theme. Its goal is to reflect on the many ideas, multiplicity of perspectives, and convergence of cultures that have occurred in the Oregon Country during the past 150 years. It will include both academic and practical skills sessions and engage both professionals and volunteers.
Attendees include community leaders, staff and volunteers from historical societies, museums, historic cemeteries, ethnic organizations, schools, historic preservation commissions, humanities groups, the tourism industry, economic development, public and academic historians, archaeologists, youth, and local, tribal, state and federal governments.
Proposals should include a proposed title, a 250-word synopsis of the content and goals of the presentation, audio-visual requirements, target audience, and whether it is an individual presentation, a full session, a roundtable, or a technical training. In addition, include your name, affiliation, and contact information, and the names of any other session participants.
Submit your proposals to the Extravaganza Programs Committee at heritage.info@state.or.us. For additional information, contact Kuri Gill at 503-986-0685.
