SUMMARY:Andy Dappen: Journey to Alaska
DESCRIPTION:Award-winning journalist Andy Dappen shares the story of two Alaskan canoe trips undertaken by Dappen and his equally adventurous brother Alan. The first\, undertaken in 1974 with a group of college buddies\, was a 6-week trip spanning 800 miles of coastal waterways in wood-strip canoes constructed by the Dappen brothers. It was cut short in Ketchikan when half of the crew bailed before making the planned final stop at Juneau. Forty years later\, Alan and Andy decided to finish the journey\, paddling 300 miles of saltwater over 24 days. \nSponsored by Eliot Scull

SUMMARY:Tule Mat Workshop
DESCRIPTION:The museum will host an all-day weaving workshop led by Wanapum elder and master weaver Angela Buck. The workshop with feature the versatile tule\, or bulrush\, as raw material\, to create a sitting mat that can be used for yoga\, picnics or even as an insulating layer on the dining room table. Wanapum tribal elders skilled in the art of tule weaving lead the class. \nHistorically\, the Wanapum\, or River People\, created houses out of mats made from the tall reed that grows abundantly in local ponds\, springs and sloughs. The mats were used to cover winter log houses and summer tepees as well as mattresses\, table mats\, ceremonial sitting mats and burial mats. \nThe tule plant’s unique Styrofoam-like core makes an excellent insulating material and was used by Columbia Plateau indigenous peoples for hundreds of years as a natural air-conditioning system. The plant swelled with moisture during rainy\, wet times to seal gaps in the mats and form an insulating roof. On hot\, dry days the reeds in the mats would shrink allowing cooling breezes to filter into the lodging. \nAll materials are provided and all skill levels are welcomed. Lunch is included. Cost is $100 per person.

SUMMARY:Rock Island Rapids of the Columbia – Talk with William Layman and Randy Lewis
DESCRIPTION:While Edward Curtis’ mission was to document the lives of American Indians\, Wenatchee’s own Columbia River Archaeological Society focused on a singular island\, destined to disappear behind the Columbia’s first dam in 1931.  Rock Island rapids was one of the great fisheries of the Columbia – a place of deafening sound that shook you to the bone.  To Native Peoples\, the island was and remains holy\, made sacred by generations of Ancestors who traveled across the river’s swift channels to seek life-altering visions. \nJoin William Layman and Randy Lewis to watch Rock Island re-emerge before your eyes\, through Layman’s use of photographs\, maps and narratives that allow viewers to walk the island’s contours and see its many petroglyphs and other interesting island features. Lewis’ commentary will shed light on how Native Americans knew the island and how they regard it presently.  The rewards are great; offering new ground that gives regional residents\, Indian and non-Indian alike\, the ability to more deeply appreciate and inhabit this extraordinary river we call home. \nThis co-led presentation is designed to engage both heart and mind. \nWilliam Layman has actively been reflecting and contemplating the island\, its rapids and petroglyphs since moving to Wenatchee in 1979. His research is informed by long-standing relationships with Native Elders\, who through his work are able to better know the original free-flowing river.  In 2008 Layman co-curated WVMCC’s exhibit\, River of Memory: The Everlasting Columbia which traveled throughout the Pacific Northwest and was featured by the Royal British Columbia Museum and the Washington State Historical Society. \nRandy Lewis (Wenatchi/P’Squosa)  holds a vast storehouse of oral tradition that chronicles the stories of Indian people living in the Mid-Columbia region. Beyond\, Lewis is a highly celebrated organizer and leader of Pacific Northwest tribes who for years has been at the forefront of speaking for and empowering larger PNW Indian communities. Randy’s words are often highly entertaining but beneath them resides a serious and caring heart that knows well the cultural trauma suffered by his people. The specific knowledge he shares about Rock Island reflects his close boyhood relationship with his teacher/grandfather\, Jerome Miller\, who fished the island’s banks and passed the knowledge and responsibility of Rock Island’s stories over to his grandson. Program is free and open to the public. A $5 donation is requested. Light refreshments will be provided along with a no-host wine bar. \nSponsored by:

DESCRIPTION:Join Native American elder Randy Lewis for a traditional blessing of water and salmon at the opening of the Edward S. Curtis exhibit. One of the Plateau tribes’ most significant ceremonies is the First Salmon Feast\, marking the arrival of salmon to traditional fishing grounds. Lewis will retell origin stories related to the Creator’s calling of a grand council of the plants and animals to help feed and care for the newest of creations: humans. Following a prayer of thanksgiving\, guests are invited to participate in a feast of salmon\, part of the traditional tribal religion in the Columbia Basin that reinforces the central role salmon and water play for Columbia Basin tribal people. Lewis is the great-great grandson of Sam Miller\, founder of the Miller-Freer Trading Post\, the anchor to the original City of Wenatchee.

SUMMARY:Pipe Organ Concert
DESCRIPTION:Pipe organ concert with sing-a-longs and silent film\, featuring organist Sharon Stearnes.\n$5 suggested donation \n \nABOUT THE ORGANIST\, SHARON STEARNES\n\nSharon was staff organist at the Tacoma Pizza & Pipes starting in 1983. She played there for 16 years before the restaurant was lost in a fire in August 1999. She also played at the Bellevue Pizza & Pipes restaurant from 1987-1992 and at the Seattle Pizza & Pipes from 1984 until it closed in about 1989. \nSharon was the organist for the Seattle Mariners from 1985-1990. \nShe currently works for Aflac as an Associate Sales Coordinator and plays the organ at the Gig Harbor United Methodist Church \n\n\nABOUT THE ORGAN\nSince the organist first accompanied the musical comedy Chin Chin during the grand opening of Wenatchee’s Liberty Theater in December of 1919\, the museum’s Liberty Theater Wurlitzer Pipe Organ has provided entertainment and wonderful memories for generations of theatergoers and museum visitors. Originally installed to provide sound effects and music for silent films and vaudeville performances\, even after the introduction of “talkies” in the late 1920s organists continued to play musical interludes during stage productions\, matinees and other events well into the 1940s. The organ was moved to the museum in 1988-89. With its 10 ranks of pipes and two keyboards\, the Liberty Theater Pipe Organ can reproduce the sounds of a full orchestra and a large number of special effects. From auto horns to xylophone — a variety of instruments and sounds including clarinet\, bass drums\, cymbals\, sleigh bells and horses’ hoof beats are at the fingertips of the organist. The wooden shutters above the chamber windows open and close\, providing volume control and emphasis to the particular sounds from each chamber. \n\n  \n
