SUMMARY:Speaker Series: The American Revolution's End and an Empire's Beginning
DESCRIPTION:The Clark County Historical Society presents Humanities Washington speaker Lawrence B. A. Hatter for the May installment of its Speaker Series. \n“Could the American Revolution have been both a fight for human liberty—and for empire and dominance?” \nHistorian Lawrence Hatter explores the striking duality at the heart of the Revolutionary era. Audiences will encounter a generation that secured historic victories for universal human rights while simultaneously pursuing conquest and expansion. The program examines pivotal moments such as the Battle of Fallen Timbers\, where a U.S. victory over a Native confederacy opened the door to continued invasion of Indigenous lands. \nAs the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence approaches\, this program invites reflection on how the nation can celebrate the Founders’ achievements while reckoning with the complexities of their legacy. \nPresented by the Clark County Historical Society in partnership with the National Park Service. \nSponsored by Humanities Washington and the Historic Preservation Commission.\nMedia sponsor: The Columbian. \nDate: Thursday\, May 7\, 2026Doors Open: 6:00 PMProgram Begins: 7:00 PM \nLocation:Fort Vancouver Visitor Center1501 E Evergreen BlvdVancouver\, WA 98661 \nAdmission: Free (Registration required) \n

SUMMARY:History On Tap: Our Mr. Matsura - Documentary Screening and Talk
DESCRIPTION:A powerful documentary on immigrant photographer Frank Matsura\, followed by a talk exploring identity\, community\, and the American West. \n\n\n\n\nJoin the Clark County Historical Museum for an engaging evening of film and discussion at the historic Liberty Theater in Ridgefield. \nThis installment of History on Tap features a screening of Our Mr. Matsura\, a compelling documentary that tells the story of Frank (Sakae) Matsura\, a Japanese-born photographer who made his home in rural Washington State in the early 1900s. \nOrphaned at a young age and raised in Tokyo\, Matsura immigrated to the United States and eventually settled in Okanogan County. There\, he became deeply embedded in a diverse community of Native people\, settlers\, and working-class residents\, including cowboys\, miners\, ranchers\, and shopkeepers. Through his photography\, Matsura documented everyday life in the American West with warmth\, humor\, and an unusual sense of intimacy. \nUnlike the rigid and formal portraits typical of the era\, Matsura’s work often featured playful self-portraits and collaborative images that challenged conventional ideas about identity\, gender roles\, and representation. His photographs continue to shape how we understand the region’s history today. \nFollowing the screening\, attendees will have the opportunity to engage in a discussion exploring Matsura’s legacy\, the power of photography in storytelling\, and how immigrant voices have shaped the history of the Pacific Northwest. \nThis installment of History on Tap is made possible through the generosity of our season sponsors\, the Old Liberty Theater and Ridgefield Main Street\, with media sponsorship through The Columbian\, and program support from Enspire Arts and Silver Keys Media. \nEvent Details\nDate: Thursday\, May 21\, 2026\nTime: \n\nDoors open: 6:00 PM\nPresentation: 7:00 PM\n\nLocation:\nOld Liberty Theater\n115 N Main Ave\nRidgefield\, WA 98642 \nCost: \n\nFree for Clark County Historical Museum Members\n(Use member discount code at checkout that was sent in members’ only email)\n$5 for Non-Members
