Remembering is an act of resistance. Join us for two weeks of memory activism to remember, repair, reclaim, and reimagine our collective story.
STORY HARVEST
Did you or a family member live in Vanport?
Your memories matter. We invite you to contribute to the Vanport Mosaic Living Archive. For over a decade, we’ve been collaborating with the Vanport former residents and descendants to preserve and amplify this essential chapter of Oregon’s history. Together, we’ve built the largest existing archive of Vanport oral histories, with over 100 stories already recorded.
Throughout the Festival the Vanport Mosaic team will digitize your scrapbooks, photos, and artifacts about Vanport, and conduct interviews.
