SUMMARY:Beekman Bank Museum tours
DESCRIPTION:You are invited to “Step Behind the Counter” of the oldest financial institution in the Pacific Northwest—Jacksonville’s 1863 Beekman Bank Museum—when Historic Jacksonville\, Inc. opens the museum for summer tours. \nEstablished as a “gold dust” office in 1856\, it was the first “bank” north of San Francisco. \nScheduled 2025 “banking hours” are 11am to 3 pm\, Saturdays and Sundays\, from May 24 through August 31. The Beekman Bank Museum is located at 110 W. California Street (the corner of California and North 3rd streets) in Jacksonville. Guests can interact with costumed docents sharing stories of late 19th Century banking practices\, gold shipping\, and handshake deals; step behind the counter and peer in drawers containing old checks\, stage schedules\, and paperwork; and enter the vault that stored millions in gold! \nVisitors can spend as much or as little time as they like—although we suggest they allow at least 30 minutes. Tours are FREE\, but donations are encouraged since all monies go towards the preservation and maintenance of this historic legacy! \nThe original bank was established in 1856 as a “gold dust” office. (If we’re factual\, it was a safe.) Cornelius Beekman had come to Jacksonville in 1854 as an express rider between Yreka and Jacksonville carrying newspaper\, mail\, parcels\, and gold over the Siskiyous. When his employer’s firm failed\, he established Jacksonville’s Beekman’s Express and his gold dust office. In 1863 he became Jacksonville’s Wells Fargo agent and constructed the Beekman Bank. \nDuring Jacksonville’s heyday as the governmental\, commercial\, and social hub of Southern Oregon in the late 1800s\, the Beekman’s Bank saw over $40 million in gold cross its counters—equivalent to over $1 billion today! The current 1863 structure is the only commercial wooden building on California Streeet to survive Jacksonville’s many fires. It has been preserved intact as a museum since Cornelius Beekman\, the wealthiest and most prominent of Jacksonville’s pioneers\, locked the doors in 1915. \nAdditional information is available at 541-245-3650; info@historicjacksonville.org; and www.historicjacksonville.org/behind-the-counter/.

SUMMARY:A Public Art Unveiling honoring Lorraine Hansberry and Black Lives
DESCRIPTION:A landmark cultural moment in Ashland: the unveiling of one of the city’s first Playwright’s Plaques\, honoring legendary playwright Lorraine Hansberry and commemorating Black lives lost to racial injustice — including local youth Aidan Ellison. \nTimed just after Juneteenth\, this public ceremony marks a significant step in Ashland’s effort to uplift voices of social justice and Black artistry through lasting\, visible art. The plaque—featuring original artwork by Micah BlackLight and bronze casting by local artist Jack Langford—will be permanently installed as a touchstone for reflection and dialogue. \nThis is not just another event. It’s a story of community-led action\, collaboration between artists\, students\, and local organizations\, and a rare project funded by the city’s public arts budget. Supporting organizations include Ashland’s Social Equity & Racial Justice Advisory Committee\, Public Arts Advisory Committee\, and Ashland Playwrights Walk\, sponsors — Oregon Shakespeare Festival\, Southern Oregon University\, the Ashland Chamber of Commerce & the City of Ashland.\nWe invite you to attend\, cover\, and share this powerful moment of art\, remembrance\, and community. \nAbout the Playwright’s Plaques: \nThe Playwright’s Plaques are a series of bronze artworks installed throughout Ashland to celebrate the city’s rich theater culture. Initiated by community members and supported by local institutions\, the project aims to honor playwrights and significant cultural figures. Each plaque features a quote from the honoree\, serving as a lasting tribute to their contributions to the arts and society.
