    logo_sedonamuseum2Sedona AZ (March 13, 2019) – The Sedona Heritage Museum will host a wine and cheese reception for anyone interested in knowing more about local history and the museum on Thursday March 28 from 3:00 – 5:00 p.m.

    The event will start with wine, nibbles and sweet treats. After a special docent-led tour of the museum and facilities, docent Clancy Sage will give a presentation about the life of John James (J.J.) Thompson, Oak Creek Canyon’s first permanent Anglo settler and his family. “J.J. was a very interesting man with an industrious life and more than a little penchant for wanderlust.” says Clancy. “He and his descendants were responsible for helping build our first roads, operated more than one post office and J.J. joined the posse that caught up with Sedona’s first counterfeiters!”

    20190313_AnnPearsongreetsvisitorsMuseum Volunteer Coordinator, Julie Holst will discuss the varied museum volunteer opportunities that are ideal for anyone looking to expand their social footprint in the community. If you are unable to attend on the 28th, please contact Julie at 282-7038 for a one-on-one meeting.

    The Museum has openings for new volunteers in many roles, including Museum docent, exhibits and education, tour committee, special event committees, archives and collections, digitization projects, other special projects, and the gift shop, to name just a few.

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
