In this season's opening event, CCHM is excited to sit down with beloved local author and historian, Pat Jollota, to discuss her life and work. A lover of history and 2012 Clark County First Citizen, Jollota has devoted her life to unearthing and preserving our community’s stories while continuing her passion for civic engagement and advocacy.
*NEW DATE* History books teach us that the Founding Fathers birthed American democracy, but do not reveal the Indigenous sources of inspiration that guided their vision. Join storyteller Fern Renville as she shares stories both mythic and personal that reframe and highlight the history, present, and future of Indigenous female power and leadership in America. Such stories include the Seneca story of The Peacemaker and the Dakota story of White Buffalo Calf Woman.
Join us as local historians Pat Jollota, Jeff Davis, and Brad Richardson explore the darker side of Clark County's history including never before heard accounts of things that go bump in the night as well as tales of vice and crime. Before the main event, see if you can figure out which tidbits are true and which are false with our newest segment, "One History and a Lie." And watch as the Business Over Brew crew continue their battle for the title of "King of Trivia, 2022."
