Celebrate Arizona’s 100th Birthday with OTM!
WHS and OTM present Second Saturdays in Winslow, a year-long series of programs that explores Winslow’s diverse history, in honor of Arizona’s State Centennial on February 14, 2012.
Programs will be held at various locations, and will explore Winslow’s pre-history and historic trails; railroad, ranching, logging, and trading posts industries; local architecture, education, communications, and medical services; military history; and culture and ethnicity. Go to OTM News for information about upcoming programs.
Also in celebration of Arizona’s Centennial, OTM and the Winslow Arts Trust unveiled a new photography exhibit, Territorial Town: Winslow, Arizona, from 1880 to Statehood, on Saturday, September 10, at La Posada Hotel. Both the exhibit and the museum’s 2012 historical calendar of the same name explore Winslow’s Territorial history, giving a visual sense of what it was like for the city’s earliest residents prior to Statehood. The exhibit is open to the public from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily, and will be on display through early 2012.
OTM’s exhibit Women of Winslow, previously at La Posada, re-opened the same Saturday at the Winslow Visitors Center/Hubbell Trading Post, where it will be on view through early 2012. Both exhibit openings were part of Second Saturdays in Winslow.
