May 18, 2016 Page 15 Vanport Mosaic C ontinued froM f ront Festival activities will also cap- ture and preserve memories of for- mer residents as part of the Vanport Mosaic community-based oral his- tory project led by Lo Forti. “Vanport is so much more than the story of the lood,” notes Lo Forti, organizer of the festival’s Lost City, Living Memories: Vanport Through the Voice of Its Residents, a compilation of short community-produced documen- taries featuring former residents. “And, the people who lived there are more than the victims of a di- saster.” The festival will offer an ar- ray of events hosted at various venues throughout north and northeast Portland, including screenings; a historical exhibi- tion in tandem with Cottonwood In the Flood, a full-length play running through June 12; an ed- ucational symposium curated by Concordia University; and Wel- come Home to Vanport, which includes self-guided walking or biking tours of the former Van- port grounds currently occupied by Portland International Race- way. Special guests include Oregon Sen. Jackie Winters; City Com- missioners Amanda Fritz and Nick Fish; Henry Mead Kaiser of the Kaiser shipbuilding fami- ly; Portland Community College professor of history James S. Harrison; Shalanda Sims, direc- tor of “Vanport, The Musical,” performing songs from her play, and poets associated with Spit/ WRITE, a youth voice initiative. Vanport Mosaic Festival events are free or low cost, though some will require tickets or reservations. Donations are ac- cepted. The festival headquarters is located at the Interstate Fire- house Cultural Center, 5340 N. Interstate Ave. For more informa- tion visit vanportmosaic.org/fes- tival2016 or call 510-717-2441.
