Please register for the lecture. Lee Silliman will also be available to talk to guests and explain more about his exhibit Viewed from Afar: European Prints of the American Frontier West\, 1759-1908 at the Park City Museum Tozer Gallery located at 528 Main Street from 2-4 p.m. on June 30th. \nThis presentation will focus upon the British\, French\, and German perceptions of the Trans-Mississippi West of the nineteenth century. The people of these three nations were eager to learn more about this strange landscape and indigenous people who inhabited it. Silliman’s talk will first discuss the art depicting the West that was created by American and European artists who actually visited the region. From these artworks\, derivative imagery—some accurate\, some fanciful—flooded the continent’s illustrated newspapers and books. Literature\, both European’s travel accounts and western fiction\, also played a role in the creation of the western mystique. As communication technology improved by the late nineteenth century\, Europeans were becoming acutely aware of events transpiring in the American West soon after they occurred. Buffalo Bill’s Wild West Show—with “real” cowboys and Indians–toured many European cities over the years and thereby fostered truth and myth about the American West. A bibliography of recommended reading will be available for distribution at the conclusion of the presentation. \nLee Silliman is a retired educator and former part-time museum employee living in Missoula\, Montana. Since early childhood he has nurtured a strong interest in the art and history of the frontier American West. His interests have spawned many articles and the editing of five books. He has presented conference lectures\, taught workshops\, and led four educational group tours. Since 1988 Silliman has assembled and circulated numerous fine art exhibits which have been displayed in more than one hundred venues throughout Montana and ten other states. \nRegister for this lecture\n\n\n \n \n \n \n Name*\n \n \n \n First\n \n \n \n \n Last\n \n \n Email*\n \n Phone\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Δ URL:https://parkcityhistory.org/event/through-european-eyes-imagining-the-american-frontier-west-in-person-lecture-given-by-curator-lee-silliman/ CATEGORIES:Lectures ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://parkcityhistory.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/DSC_0015-scaled.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20220630T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20220630T160000 DTSTAMP:20260403T151933 CREATED:20220127T190429Z LAST-MODIFIED:20220607T225139Z UID:10000356-1656597600-1656604800@parkcityhistory.org SUMMARY:Meet Curator Lee Silliman DESCRIPTION:Lee Silliman will also be available to talk to guests and explain more about his exhibit Viewed from Afar: European Prints of the American Frontier West\, 1759-1908 at the Park City Museum Tozer Gallery located at 528 Main Street from 2-4 p.m. on June 30th.

Please register for the lecture at www.parkcityhistory.org/events. \nSettled after the Civil War\, and incorporated in 1884\, Park City grew into one of the world’s most prestigious mining camps. Known primarily for its richness in silver\, Park City miners also extracted\, lead\, zinc\, gold\, and copper from the surrounding hills. As the mines grew\, so too did the town\, attracting businesspeople\, grocers\, doctors\, lawyers\, teachers\, and more to the area\, in addition to miners and prospectors seeking to strike it rich. From mines large (like the Silver King and the Ontario) to small (like the Nelson Queen)\, Park City’s early history is that of the triumphs and tragedies of mining\, the ebbs and flows of the community\, and the metals that made it all happen.

Americans supported it with patriotic fervor as part of the war effort\, not considering the consequences or how difficult it would be to enforce. An idealistic public soon turned cynical as bootleggers emerged to supply the brisk demand for booze\, while organized crime dramatically undermined the noble experiment. \nProhibition lasted less than 14 years before the 21st Amendment repealed it in 1933—marking the end of what literary critique H. L. Mencken called the “Thirteen Awful Years.” \nGarrett Peck is an author\, historian and tour guide living in Santa Fe who specializes in Prohibition history. His eighth and latest book is A Decade of Disruption: America in the New Millennium. Garrett is currently working on a book about how novelist Willa Cather composed Death Comes for the Archbishop.

Mae Phelps\, like Dora Topham\, championed health care for her ladies and worked with civic leaders. Mae also organized a Madams’ Association. \nMichael Rutter is a recipient of the Ben Franklin Book Award for Excellence and the Rocky Mountain Book Publishers’ Award. An “addicted” fly fisherman\, his outdoor essays have been published from Yale University to Outdoor Life.

A link will be sent to you a few days before the lecture. \nHistorically\, the hardworking American political poster has been hiding in plain sight\, attempting to catch our eye and capture our vote through the use of visual language. In a survey that spans the life of these ubiquitous messengers\, Sign of the Times: The Great American Political Poster 1844–2012 explores a variety of styles\, design trends\, and printing technology that will delight your eye\, engage your imagination\, and lead you to ruminate over past political commitments. Sign of the Times features the most exciting and rarely seen posters created in the last 170 years and opens February 14th and runs through April 30th at the Park City Museum. \nThrough time\, the American political poster has been sorely neglected as an art form and has played a minor cultural role despite its effectiveness in conveying a political message to millions of voters often through the skillful use of visual communication. Sign of the Times has made every effort to bring eye-popping political graphics to the forefront and show the great American political poster as art. \nSign of the Times was curated by Hal Wert\, Ph.D.\, collector and professor of history at Kansas City Art Institute\, and organized by Exhibits USA which is a national division of Mid-America Arts Alliance\, and The National Endowment for the Arts. \nRegister for this lecture\n\n \n \n \n \n Name*\n \n \n \n First\n \n \n \n \n Last\n \n \n Email*\n \n Phone\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Δ URL:https://parkcityhistory.org/event/the-sign-of-the-times-the-great-american-political-poster-1844-2012-exhibit-zoom-lecture-given-by-curator-hal-wert/ CATEGORIES:Lectures ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://parkcityhistory.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/Hal-Wert_015-scaled.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20211209T170000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20211209T180000 DTSTAMP:20260403T151933 CREATED:20211105T211155Z LAST-MODIFIED:20211105T211324Z UID:10000700-1639069200-1639072800@parkcityhistory.org SUMMARY:Black and White in Black and White: Images of Dignity\, Hope\, and Diversity in America Zoom Lecture given by Curator Douglas Keister DESCRIPTION:Park City Museum will host a Zoom lecture called Black and White in Black and White given by curator Douglas Keister on December 9th from 5-6 p.m. \nBlack and White in Black and White: Images of Dignity\, Hope\, and Diversity in America is curated by Douglas Keister\, traveled by Exhibit Envoy\, and presented with support from California State University\, Chico. The exhibit will be on display at the Park City Museum from November 21\, 2021 through January 7\, 2022. \nDouglas Keister has been on an Antiques Roadshow-like adventure for over a half century. \nIn 1965\, while in high school in Lincoln\, Nebraska\, budding photographer Doug Keister stumbled on a few boxes containing 280 5×7 glass negatives. Little did he know that those images were taken by a then unknown Black photographer who was depicting a largely uncelebrated era of American and African American history. \nKeister’s 50 years of research has revealed that the photographer\, John Johnson\, was documenting (among other things) the New Negro Movement in the early 20th century. The New Negro Movement sought to portray African Americans with dignity\, elegance and\, ultimately hope for a better future. Sixty of the photographs are now in the Smithsonian’s collection. \nKeister’s lecture will trace sleuthing out the provenance of the images\, explaining the New Negro Movement and telling stories about individual images. Dozens of John Johnson’s stunning images will be featured throughout his lecture. \nAuthor/writer/photographer Douglas Keister has carved out a career traveling the world researching and documenting history and historic architecture. In the late 1980s and early 90s he was the photographer for the popular “Painted Ladies” books on effervescently painted Victorian houses. In 1995\, he began photographing the iconic series of books on bungalows: The Bungalow\, Inside the Bungalow and Outside the Bungalow. \nAlong the way he has authored and co-authored 45 books including books on Spanish Architecture\, Courtyards\, Storybook homes\, four books on vintage trailers\, six books on cemeteries and two children’s books. Drawing from his personal life and his books\, he has written five novels\, a memoir and a book on his John Johnson collection. \nHis most recent book\, People\, Places & Pieces of Paradise (September 2019)\, documents history of a different sort. The book documents the Camp Fire and its aftermath which wiped out the town of Paradise\, California just 10 miles from where he lives in Chico\, California. \nHe often gives lectures and contributes stories and photographs based on his books. \nRegister for this lecture\n\n \n \n \n \n Name*\n \n \n \n First\n \n \n \n \n Last\n \n \n Email*\n \n Phone\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Δ URL:https://parkcityhistory.org/event/black-and-white-in-black-and-white-images-of-dignity-hope-and-diversity-in-america-zoom-lecture-given-by-curator-douglas-keister/ CATEGORIES:Lectures ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://parkcityhistory.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Backyard-Picnic-lb019md2.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20211117T170000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20211117T180000 DTSTAMP:20260403T151933 CREATED:20211105T202251Z LAST-MODIFIED:20211105T215933Z UID:10000416-1637168400-1637172000@parkcityhistory.org SUMMARY:Horses\, Mining\, and Park City In-person Lecture given by Mike Nelson and Amy Richins DESCRIPTION:Park City Museum and Friends of Ski Mountain Mining History will a host an IN-PERSON lecture on Wednesday\, November 17th from 5-6 p.m. called Horses\, Mining\, and Park City given by Mike Nelson and Amy Richins. The lecture will be given at the Park City Museum Education and Collections Center Building located at 2079 Sidewinder Drive. \nBefore steam\, compressed air\, and electricity\, humans had only four sources of power—themselves (or their slaves)\, animals\, wind\, and water.

It’s not surprising that James Watt chose to market his modified steam engine in terms of its equivalent “horsepower.” \nThis presentation will look at a few historic examples of horses in mining and then discuss the use of horses in Park City and its mines. Much of the presentation is based on family and personal knowledge: Mike’s uncle\, James N. Berry\, is the son of Lol Berry\, who was the ostler at the Ontario mine from 1903 to 1949. Amy’s family members were among the first homesteaders in Henefer\, and have operated a cattle ranch there for almost 150 years. \nAmy J. Richins received B.S. and M.S. degrees in mining engineering at the University of Utah. In 2019 she received the Robert S. Shoemaker Ph.D. Fellowship Grant\, from the Society for Mining\, Metallurgy\, and Exploration\, and she is now completing a Ph.D. at the University of Utah. Amy’s family members are long-time residents of Summit County. They operate Circle R Livestock LLC\, a producer of grass-fed beef cattle in Henefer. Amy was with FLSmidth Minerals for seven years in various roles\, including project manager and flotation engineer\, and is presently Property Manager for Circle R.

Please register for the lecture at www.parkcityhistory.org. \nIn a live Veterans Day lecture\, David Nicholas and Steve Leatham pay tribute to all those who have so nobly served our country. Nicholas and Leatham will look back 80 years to the events leading up to Pearl Harbor. The two will trace Park City’s unique connection to the “day that will live in infamy.” From the development of the B-18 “peace time” bomber to the sinking of the USS Arizona on December 7\, 1941\, the local historians will tell the story of a courageous group of airmen and a navy coxswain whose lives came together on that ill-fated day. \nThat Sunday morning began calmly enough at the U. S. Army’s Opana radar station located on the north shore of Hawaii’s Oahu Island. Unexpectedly at 7:02 a.m. the radar scope picked up an enormous flight of incoming aircraft. The system could not tell an inbound target’s altitude\, size or number\, nor could it differentiate friend from foe. This information was forwarded to the officer on duty at the Fort Shafter Information Center east of Pearl Harbor. The officer felt sure that Opana had picked up a flight of twelve B-17 Flying Fortresses coming from the mainland to Hawaii and at 7:20 a.m. told the radar operators not to “worry about it.” Three of the B-17E’s had ties to Park City. \nSeven of the U.S. Pacific Fleet’s battleships lay in port at Pearl Harbor along “Battleship Row.” Most of Arizona’s 21 member band were on deck preparing to play music for the daily flag raising ceremony when the ship’s air raid alarm went off at 7:55 a.m. At 8:06 a.m. a bomb hit the black powder magazine near the forward section of the ship. A cataclysmic explosion shattered the battleship instantly killing a young man from Park City and 1\,176 of his USS Arizona shipmates. \nIn the latest in a series of talks emanating from the crash of an Air Corps bomber on Iron Mountain in November of 1941\, David and Steve reveal new information discovered in their ongoing research of that incident in relationship to December 7\, 1941.
