<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Oregon Heritage welcomes back Beth Dehn to our team in her new role as the Heritage Technical Resources Coordinator. Beth will provide support for the Oregon Main Street Network partners, coordinate the Oregon Heritage MentorCorps, organize
workshops and technical documents, and work with the Heritage Outreach Bureau on communications.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In her former role with the agency, Beth was the Oregon Heritage Commission Coordinator. She held that position for over two years before losing it to seniority implications during OPRD’s July 2020 lay offs caused by budget cutbacks from
the COVID-19 public health emergency. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Before being reinstated, Beth became a mom and worked for the Oregon Transportation Commission.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Beth is a public folklorist with over 10 years of experience managing cultural programs in museums and educational settings. She originally came to Oregon Heritage from Road Scholar, an educational travel nonprofit for adults and intergenerational
learners. Previously she served as the Director of Education at the Washington County Museum where she expanded the museum’s community outreach and collaborated with Pacific University and local organizations on the Washington County Heritage Online project
and Washington County Oral Histories digitization initiative. Beth also served as Educational Outreach Assistant at the Museum of Natural & Cultural History and has taught internationally through Fulbright and the JET Programme. Beth holds a BA in English
& Spanish from Buena Vista University and an MA in Folklore from the University of Oregon with a Museum Studies Certificate. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Oregon Heritage will award up to three $2,000 fellowships to enrolled students of an Oregon university or college for researching, writing and presenting a topic related to history, geography, archaeology, cultural heritage, or historic
preservation in Oregon.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Fellowship recipients will present their research process and findings at the 2022 Oregon Heritage Conference, April 27-29, and may be invited to submit their project paper for possible publication in the Oregon Historical Quarterly. Fellows'
research papers will also be posted on the Oregon Heritage website at <a href="http://www.oregonheritage.org">
www.oregonheritage.org</a>. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The Oregon Heritage Fellowship is provided to encourage thoughtful inquiry of Oregon's heritage by emerging scholars. Many new topics remain to be studied, and fresh perspectives on current topics are needed to keep the exploration of Oregon's
history fresh and relevant. The fellowship offers a financial incentive for these research efforts and an opportunity to publicly share what is learned with the heritage community. The hope is that these efforts will stimulate further inquiry and discussion,
and even lead to broader distribution through publications and other media.<o:p></o:p></p>
