    Sedona Heritage MuseumSedona AZ (January 24, 2021) – The Sedona Heritage Museum recently debuted a display in the Youth Library at the Sedona Public Library, with the purpose of engaging children in Sedona history.

    The new display challenges local kids to learn local history from the old photos and captions on a display board, then to write their own history. Children who write their story and share a copy with the Museum and Library will receive a small gift at the Museum.

    Additionally, the display directs children and parents to some Arizona-based children’s books, a video of a Museum volunteer reading “The Three Sedonas”, and finally information on how to make cornhusk dolls. Free handouts allow children to take home activity books and ‘how-to’ flyers.

    Museum volunteers, Michael and Roseanne Haboush, created the educational display and handouts.

    The Museum’s Education Committee is responsible for the project. “With fewer opportunities to engage our local children at the Museum or in the schools, we wanted to provide something that was educational and history-based.” said committee member Roseanne Haboush. “We approached the Youth Librarian, Vivian Kraus, and were thrilled when she was so receptive to providing space for our display.”

    The display is at the Sedona Public Library now. The Library offers Arizona Culture Passes for adult admissions and the Sedona Heritage Museum provides free admission to children 12 years old and under. The Museum is at 735 Jordan Rd. in Uptown, and is open 11:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m. For information, call 928-282-7038.

    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.
