SUMMARY:Story of the Wanapum People by Rex Buck\, Jr.
DESCRIPTION:Rex Buck\, Jr.\, 61\, chief of the Priest Rapids Band of the Wanapum\, discusses the impact of displacement on his tribe and his hope for renewed connections to the land among future generations of Wanapum Indians in this hour-long talk and slide show. Buck grew up near the Manhattan Project site at Hanford along the Columbia River. When the U.S. government selected Hanford as a site for plutonium production\, Buck and the rest of the Wanapum tribes were forced off their land. Upriver at the last village\, which contains 11 buildings in the shadow of the Priest Rapids Dam\, the few surviving Wanapum people wait to see what will happen as they cope with the tremendous cultural change brought by displacement. Buck explains how the Wanapum’s continued connection to a portion of their homeland has helped to preserve centuries-old cultural traditions including their strongest belief: That Priest Rapids is a special\, sacred place. A place that the Wanapum people must protect and preserve for future generations. \nA $5 donation is requested at the door. Light refreshments will be available along with a no-host wine bar. \nSponsored by:

SUMMARY:Red Star Blue Star Defeats Spexman
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a book reading of the new book\, Red Star and Blue Star Defeats Spexman by Randy Lewis and William Layman. The presentation will be held at 7:00 pm on Wednesday\, December 19th at the Wenatchee Valley Museum & Culture Center. Books will be available for $15.00. Book signing to follow. The book was published by the Native River Fund of the Wenatchee Valley Museum & Culture Center with a grant from the Community Foundation of NCW.  Photographs of both the landmarks and the characters bring the spell-binding words of Lewis to life. Written for all ages\, this small book makes a great gift for the holiday tree. \nThe book weaves a number of Mid-Columbia landmarks together. The story takes place at a critical moment in the time before humans inhabited the land. The twins Red Star and Blue Star\, born at the confluence of the Wenatchee and Columbia rivers\, are whisked away to a cave in Moses Coulee where they receive their šúmáx (Spirit Power). Upon emerging from the cave Coyote charges the twins with the daunting task of confronting and slaying Spexman\, a dreaded water monster who devoured all who would come downriver. The boys rise to the occasion\, but not before experiencing the full wrath of the monster. Their valor makes the world safe for future beings to come. \nEvent is free and doors open at 6:30pm.
