The MPD describes the settlement and residential development of Redmond from 1900 to 1970, and defines the types of associated residential properties such as single-family residences and their associated outbuildings, multi-family residences and their associated outbuildings and residential historic districts. The document then provides guidance on determining the eligibility of such properties for listing in the National Register.
Norman and Frances Swanson House, Redmond, Oregon, is the first residential property successfully listed in the National Register through the Historic Residential Resources of Redmond Oregon MPD. Built in 1966, the Swanson House is one of only a few Contemporary-style, single-family residences and associated outbuildings in Redmond.

Oregon Chinese Diaspora Project wins national Leadership in History Award
The American Association for State and Local History (AASLH) proudly announces the winners of the 77th annual Leadership in History Awards, the most prestigious recognition for achievement in the preservation and interpretation of state and local history.
This year, AASLH confers 53 national awards representing 31 states and Canada honoring people, projects, exhibits, and programs.
"It is always inspiring to see the amazing work of individuals and organizations across the nation through the Leadership in History Awards program," said Christy Crisp, National Awards Chair, "but the challenges we have all faced over the past two years make the incredible work displayed through this year's award-winning projects all the more extraordinary. From quickly restructuring planned exhibits to serve online learners, to developing unprecedented collecting collaborations, to creating platforms for discussion and interaction in communities struggling for connection, the projects represented in this year's Leadership in History Awards truly illustrate the creative, dedicated, and tenacious spirit of the many organizations-large and small-that make the Awards program so exciting."

Reframing Fundraising
Wednesday, June 29 at 3 p.m. Eastern
With Bryce Gorman, Grant Services Manager, Office of Indiana Lieutenant Governor Suzanne Crouch and Lynne Toye, Executive Director, New Jersey Arts & Culture Renewal Fund
How should history organizations position their fundraising efforts in 2022? How can history organizations better communicate their value to donors, sponsors, and grant makers? How can you better articulate why your work is important? This webinar will assist professionals and volunteers at history organizations of all types and sizes to craft more compelling and more effective fundraising messaging. This webinar will provide history practitioners with practical takeaways about how to craft fundraising messages that will resonate with their intended audiences. Register here<https://learn.aaslh.org/products/live-webinar-reframing-fundraising>.
Reframing Advocacy
Wednesday, July 14 at 3 p.m. Eastern
With Ember Farber, Director of Advocacy, American Alliance of Museums and Alan Spears, Senior Director for Cultural Resources, Government Affairs, National Parks Conservation Association
History is essential for developing critical thinking skills and making progress toward a more just society. Yet in today's highly charged, polarized environment, that message can easily get lost. Whether at the local, state, or federal level, professionals and volunteers at history organizations regularly communicate with elected officials, policy makers, and others as part of our efforts to advance the work of our organizations. But how do we know our message is hitting the right notes? How can we be more effective communicators? This webinar will assist professionals and volunteers at history organizations of all types and sizes to strengthen the impact of their advocacy efforts and more effectively explain the purpose and value of history. Register here<https://learn.aaslh.org/products/live-webinar-reframing-advocacy>.
Reframing Marketing / Audience Outreach
Date and time TBD
This webinar, which will take place in August, will draw from the Reframing History initiative to provide history professionals and volunteers with recommendations to create marketing and audience outreach that communicate the value of history and their organizations to the public. More information to come.
Oregon Heritage Note: We have added the Reframing History project to the "additional resources" section of the Sharing the Value of Heritage Toolkit<https://www.oregon.gov/oprd/OH/pages/tools.aspx> on our website. There you will find additional tools with Oregon specific data and messaging to help individuals and organizations communicate the value of heritage. (Spoiler Alert! Coming soon to that toolkit are the results of a Heritage Activities Economic Impact Study commissioned by the Oregon Heritage Commission.)

This year, the Roadshow is virtual, but typically hosts in-person events in Portland, Bend, and in Hines, OR throughout the month of June. Organizers are working to develop partnerships with additional organizations and agencies to host future outreach events in the southern Willamette Valley. Organization could join them in the future as an exhibitor, a volunteer, or a sponsor. It's a great way to connect with the public, and also with each other as professionals in the heritage/cultural resource management community.
Please be in touch (ashelby at pdx.edu<mailto:ashelby at pdx.edu>) if future collaboration is of interest to you and/or your organization.
