<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">The Oregon Heritage Summit, April 26-27, is coming together to be a great event! We hope you will join us in Newberg, at the Chehalem Cultural Center, to explore funding
for heritage work in Oregon. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">The first day will be a look at the big picture of funding for heritage. The goals of the day are to strengthen the network of people and organizations doing heritage work,
consider broad solutions for funding, and provide input on tools the Oregon Heritage Commission can develop to help increase funding for heritage.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">Donna Harris of Heritage Consulting, Inc will kick off the morning with a presentation of her national research on ways heritage projects are funded. Then we will hear from
granting organizations about how heritage projects fit within their programs. You’ll get a chance to talk with some of them. Next, we will dive deeper in to some models in case studies from around the state. We will wrap up the work part of the day with a
discussion of possible solutions for Oregon, facilitated by Gwen Carr of Oregon Black Pioneers.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">Learn about three exceptional, student-led research projects funded through the Oregon Heritage Fellowship Program. Our emerging scholars will be presenting on Northern Paiute
resistance to imprisonment at the Yakima Reservation, historic preservation of Oregon’s statewide fish hatcheries, and archaeological digs at the Newell Creek and Buffalo Lake Sites in Silvies Valley. This groundbreaking session will be moderated by Eliza
E. Canty-Jones, editor of the <i>Oregon Historical Quarterly</i>. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">That’s not all. The morning of day two will be filled with workshops getting back to the basics of fundraising. We will address board development for fundraising, membership,
annual appeal, crowdsourced funding, story-telling and more. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
