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.
