Timber Culture Exhibit
Timber Culture is a traveling exhibit and exploration into cultural heritage in the Pacific Northwest. The exhibit depicts the lives of loggers and their families drawn together from different cultures during the great migration, presenting an inclusive look at Oregon's multicultural logging communities. In sharing and discussing the history of the segregated logging community of Maxville, Oregon, the exhibit examines issues of race and social justice through the lens of Oregon's history.
Find out how your learning institution, heritage society, library or museum can bring this 20-piece traveling exhibit and director’s presentation to your town.
