Historic Monuments in Washington State: Follow-Up Conversation

The Clark County Historical Museum is proud to once again partner with the Washington State Historical Society to host “Historic Monuments in Washington State: Community Conversation.” This follow-up event at 6 p.m. Sept. 24 at the museum builds on last year’s dialogue about the “Firsts” monument on Officers Row. Attendees will discuss the monument’s role in representing our community’s history and consider how monuments like this can help us learn about the past. The insights gathered during these community conversations will guide future actions regarding the “Firsts” monument and others across Washington State. Options under consideration include removal, redesign or the addition of new interpretive signage. Attendance is free but register at cityofvancouver.us/events/community-conversation-firsts-monument/.
