Museum membership drive currently
The Museum At Warm Springs is
conducting a membership drive to
bolster support for the award winning
facility that houses many of the
treasures of the Confederated Tribes
of Warm Springs.
"The local community is one of
the audiences we have targeted to
encourage becoming members of The
Museum," said Dora Goudy,
Museum Development Officer. The
benefits are many, including
discounts in The Museum ' s Gift Shop
and invitations to special exhibits,
classes, performances and hosted
receptions for artists and scholars,
she said.
'"Baby Carriers of the Plateau', is
our newest changing exhibit where
there are beautiful pieces of work
displayed," she said.
The Museum offers educational
programs throughout the year
including the Living Traditions
program during the summer months.
Currently Antoinette Queahpama is
teaching a Cedar Root Basket Making
Class that has had tremendous interest
and response.
On November 17, 1995, the
Portland Opera will give two
performances of "An American
Magic Flute", an event with a Native
American theme geared especially
for children.
"The Museum offers a broad array
of events for you to select from
throughout the year," Goudy
continued. "It is a way for you to
become involved and to appreciate
and support the arts of the community.
The Museum was once only a
dream for the people of Warm Springs
and now it is a dream come true,"
Goudy said. She added there are many
treasures stored at The Museum and
each has stories that go with it. "It
offers a rare and educational
opportunity for people of all ages to
learn form the tribal perspective, its
