An exhibit exploring the history of clubs and organizations in the Mid-Willamette Valley

January 24 – June 15, 2020

From fraternal organizations, to service groups to kid’s associations — clubs help shape our identity, widen our network and form community. They can provide a place of belonging and shared interests. They can also divide and exclude.

In this the 10th Annual Heritage Invitational Exhibit, we are partnering with 10 heritage and service organizations from around the Mid-Willamette Valley to showcase the deep history and great variety of clubs and organizations in our region.

Participants in this year’s exhibit include:

Bush House Museum, Daughters of Union Veterans of the Civil War, 1861-1865 Oregon Department, Evergreen Aviation & Space Museum, GeerCrest Farm and Historical Society, Hoover-Minthorn House, Keizer Heritage Museum, Oregon State Hospital Museum of Mental Health, Rotary Club of Salem, Silverton Country Historical Society and the Western Steam Fiends Association.
