    logo_sedonamuseumSedona AZ (January 16, 2013) – The Sedona Heritage Museum will host an opening reception for their newest changing exhibit “One Family’s Closet: 1912-1962”, on Saturday January 26 at 10 a.m.

    The exhibit features nine focus areas representing Jordan family clothing, including items that belonged to various members of one Arizona pioneer family: Annie Bristow Jordan, Ruth Woolf Jordan, Anne Jordan Jackson, Helen Jordan, and other family members.

Today, the family would like to share these preserved artifacts, photos and stories. A collaborative effort between Sally Jackson (Anne’s daughter) and the Museum, the exhibit will feature generations of wedding dresses, a 1920 riding outfit worn by Ruth as a rural school teacher, everyday apparel, baby clothes, and undergarments.

    The exhibit is one component of a 4 month project that also includes textile preservation workshops in February and March, interpretative tours of the exhibit during its duration, and special educational elements created for students.

    Most of the items in the exhibit now belong to the Sedona Historical Society, with a few exceptions that are on loan from family members and the Tempe History Museum.

    A Bad Moon Rising

    By Tommy Acosta
    What the hell is going on? Is the fabric of society in the U.S. tearing apart at the seams? Watching those videos of teens gone wild, smashing windows, stealing from shopping centers, laughing while running over bicyclists — an omen of things to come? What can be done? Catch them? Incarcerate them. Put them in jails until they learn enough about crime to come out as skilled criminals? These kids, these young men and women of color, are growing wild in the streets. From fatherless homes, unable to properly read or write, a dismal and destitute future ahead of them. What is going to happen when they reach adulthood? The cops can’t stop them. There are simply too many. They can flash mob a phalanx of cops and just run berserk around them. What are the police to do? Shoot them? Read more→
