SUMMARY:From Pacific Shores to Columbia River Banks: Historical Traces of the Chinese Community in Vancouver\, Washington
DESCRIPTION:Join Music Fusian NW and CCHM as they welcome Dr. Xiuyu Wang for “From pacific Shores to Columbia River banks: Historical Traces of the Chinese Community in Vancouver\, Washington” during this month’s Speaker Series. \nSince the late 19th century\, Chinese immigrants to Vancouver and the Clark County in Washington have contributed to community life in various ways\, creating a legacy that has remained poignant but also sparsely documented and imperfectly known. While different immigration journeys to Vancouver reflected broader shifts in national immigration policies and international relations\, the immigrants themselves often had to rely on personal initiative and family resources in settling into business\, labor\, industry\, service\, education and other sectors. No two stories were exactly alike in this process of community adaptation and growth\, but all reflected some form of fusion between Asian and American lifeways. \nThis presentation offers glimpses of individual stories in their regional and international contexts based on materials from the Clark County Historical Museum and other sources. In recognition that many more facets of this history remain scattered in the community\, this presentation is intended both as a catalyst and an invitation for more community-driven discussions and connections around this local heritage going forward. \nAbout the Presenter \nXiuyu Wang is Associate Professor of History at Washington State University\, where he teaches courses on China and East Asia. His early life and education in Shandong Province coincided with China’s first two decades of reform. After immigrating to the US in the 1990s\, he pursued studies in intercultural communication and journalism before earning a doctorate in modern Chinese history at Carnegie Mellon. Dr. Wang’s research focuses on China’s late imperial and modern ethnic history\, with publications on state-local relations in its southwestern region\, including his book China’s Last Imperial Frontier: Late Qing Expansion in Sichuan’s Tibetan Borderlands. He lives with his family in Vancouver\, Washington. \nMusic Fusian NW is a 501(c)(3) non-profit based in Vancouver WA. It aims to use music to empower students\, inspire creativity and collaboration\, increase cultural awareness and build bridges between cultures. Music Fusian NW is excited to partner with the Clark County Historical Museum and Dr. Xiuyu Wang to present the stories and legacy of the Chinese immigrants in Clark County. \nFunding for the evening’s event comes in part from Humanities Washington. The CCHM Speaker Series is sponsored by the Clark County Historic Preservation Commission and Versa Events (formerly Wager Audio). General admission is $5; seniors and students are $4; children under 18 are $3; and the evening is free for CCHM members\, veterans\, and active-duty military personnel. \nAttendees are encouraged to arrive early\, as seating is limited and available on a first-come-first-served basis. \nFor more information\, contact the museum at 360-993-5679 or outreach@cchmuseum.org.

SUMMARY:Pat Jollata: A Retrospective
DESCRIPTION:The Clark County Historical Museum (CCHM) will open its 2022 History on Tap Season with “Pat Jollota: A Retrospective” at the Kiggins Theatre on April 21. Doors open at 6 p.m. and the event begins at 7 p.m. \nNow entering its fourth season\, History on Tap looks at how the past influences our present and informs the future. It’s built on the premise that history didn’t end on some dusty date on the calendar but is a dynamic story where every person is an active participant. In this year’s opening event\, CCHM is excited to sit down with beloved local author and historian\, Pat Jollota\, to discuss her life and work. \nPat Jollota moved to Vancouver after retiring from the Los Angeles Police Department. A lover of history\, Jollota has since devoted her life to unearthing and preserving our community’s stories while continuing her passion for civic engagement and advocacy. In addition to serving at the Clark County Historical Museum for 22 years. She served on the Vancouver City Council for 20 years\, helped establish the Children’s Justice Center\, and served on countless civic organizations. Her advocacy and dedication earned her recognition as Clark County’s First Citizen for 2012. She is also the author of 8 books exploring Clark County’s history – including her newest one\, Haunted Vancouver\, Washington (September 2020). \nThe evening will include our newest segment One History and a Lie\, where audience members try to figure out which tidbits of history are true and which ones are fake. We’re also bringing back the popular Clark County Trivia with a twist! This year the crew from our presenting sponsor\, Business Over Beer\, will compete all season for the title of “King of Trivia” as they try to answer questions about Clark County and beyond. \nAdmission to History on Tap is $15 in advance\, $18 at the door. Tickets can be purchased at the Kiggins Theatre Box Office or online at kigginstheatre.com/movies/history-on-tap. \nThe 2022 History on Tap season is brought to you by Business Over Beer. Special thanks to our sponsors Vancouver’s Downtown Association and Mickler & Associates. Program support provided by Versa Events (formerly Wager Audio).
