Director’s Report
April is bursting with Museum activities, and we invite you to join in them.
Tuesday, April 6 naturalist Walt Anderson will give his second program at the Museum.
The program starts at 7 p.m., and Walt will read from his new book on the Sutter
Buttes. It is planned, as closely as things may be planned in the publishing world, that
the new book will be here in time for his programs. Walt’s first book on the Buttes, 7he
Sutter Buttes, A Naturalist’s View, has been the classic in the field for almost 30 years.
The long-awaited revision has turned out to be nearly a new book, while still
incorporating information from the original. Jn/and Island, the Sutter Buttes will be
available in the Museum Store and on the website of the Middle Mountain Foundation,
which underwrote the publishing expense.
Also on April 6, we'll have a special children’s program. Joy Kirchubel, otherwise
known as “Art by Joy,” will lead the children in creating a picture of a beautiful Ukranian
Easter egg. The free program begins at 10:30 a.m., with all supplies provided.
The first week in April also brings a new traveling exhibit. 7he Whole Worlds
Watching is a photo documentary that tells the story of the peace and social justice
movements of the ‘60s and ‘70s in the Bay Area. This is the first time a comprehensive
exhibit has been created to describe the events of those turbulent years. As the exhibit
helps us to understand that period in our history, it helps us to better understand our
world of the present. There is an excellent catalog that accompanies the exhibit and
will be available in the Museum Store. Watch for information about a program with the
exhibit in May. This exciting show will remain through May 30.
Save Saturday and Sunday, April 17" and 18", for the popular Museum
fundraiser, the Wear & Remembrance Vintage Apparel Fair. It operates in a manner
similar to an antique show. Over two dozen dealers from California, Nevada, and
Oregon show and sell their wares, which consist of vintage clothing from the last 125
years, all the way from Victorian to Mod. They also feature accessories, jewelry, shoes,
hats, and a wide variety of textiles. Some visitors like to dress up in their own
collections of period clothing, and they add to the fun of the show. Great food is
available from Kaffe T’ Latta, and there are great desserts, too, in Bettina’s Bakery
booth. The Museum staffs a booth full of books on vintage fashion and conservation
supplies to properly store those treasures of yesteryear. There are fashions for both
men and women, so everyone is welcome to peruse the world of fashions past in
Franklin Hall on the Yuba-Sutter Fairgrounds. Hours are 10-5:00 on Saturday and 11-4
on Sunday. Admission is just $5 or $4 with the bright pink coupons available at the
Museum. Help support the Museum and have a marvelous time doing it.
