SUMMARY:Windows in Time — The Mayor’s Gift: The Enduring Legacy of Clarence Meeker
DESCRIPTION:Clarence Meeker was a Medford product through and through. \nComing to Southern Oregon in the 1890s at the age of 12\, he graduated from the city’s first high school and became a prominent downtown merchant. A natural leader and civic booster\, he also served two terms as a city councilman\, and as Medford’s wartime mayor. Like many of his contemporaries\, Meeker was fascinated by stories of the early settlers\, and in his efforts to preserve Jacksonville’s historic county courthouse\, laid the groundwork that enabled the Southern Oregon Historical Society to gather and preserve one of the largest regional history collections in the country. His life and work form\, detailed in the December Windows in Time Presentation\, “The Mayor’s Gift: The Enduring Legacy of Clarence Meeker\,” is a fascinating but little-known chapter of Rogue Valley history. \nLarry Mullaly is a retired educator and community college administrator with a love for sharing history. He serves on the coordinating committee of the Window’s In Time program\, is a frequent contributor to the Southern Oregon Historical Society Quarterly\, and long-time host of the Windows In Time monthly lectures. \nThe monthly Windows in Time lunchtime lectures feature well-known writers and historians and bring alive the people\, values\, and events that shaped our southern Oregon heritage. Lectures are jointly sponsored by the Southern Oregon Historical Society (SOHS) and Jackson County Library Services. Programs are presented in Medford (first Wednesdays\, in-person and online) and again in Ashland (second Wednesdays\, in-person). Recordings of Medford presentations are available on the JCLS Beyond YouTube channel.

SUMMARY:Susanne Homes - Art Opening 2nd Floor
DESCRIPTION:The Sculpture/4D Collective is an ever rotating group of artists focused around the Southern Oregon University Sculpture Program in the DeBoer Sculpture Building. We are interested in making experimental artworks that take up physical and/or time-based space. \nOverall\, these student artists have been encouraged to joyfully hone technical and aesthetic skills to communicate big ideas about what is important to them and the questions that they have. In this show\, we have sculptures from a variety of students at a variety of different artmaking levels: art majors and non-art majors\, introductory\, intermediate\, and graduating senior thesis work. \nThis year we began a long term collaboration with SOU’s Honors College\, where we have turned the top two stories of the Susanne Homes dorm building from unused space due to major plumbing issues into a most amazing classroom. \nThe classroom affectionately dubbed “Suzy Two” has transformed the space for creativity and a chance to make an innovative art installation. Thirty-one SOU students have created “They just can’t make holes in the floor.” These installations were part of the 2023 “Art Beyond\,” an initiative curated by the Schneider Museum of Art\, and we are delighted to open it to the public. \nCome see us on Dec. 13 for a look at this creative art\, in an unconventional space at Susanne Homes. Free and open to the public. \n(This event has been rescheduled from Dec. 6\, and the spelling of the building name has been corrected.)
