CCHM opens new exhibit April 17

La Center Historical

Museum to host ‘Spin-In’

Love Street Playhouse opens sixth season with thriller Secrets will be revealed, a tragic death, blame, fear and fraud will rivet audiences at the Love Street Playhouse as they open their sixth season with J.B. Priestley’s An Inspector Calls. The play centers around an inspector unraveling the secrets of a powerful British family in the spring of 1912. The Birling family celebrates the engage-ment of their daughter to a promising young businessman. They make a toast to the future and individual prosperity, only to have an unexpected caller quickly turn merriment to be-wilderment with the news of a young woman’s tragic death. The inspector’s enquiry - who is responsible? As the evening unfolds, it becomes increasingly apparent that the innocence of everyone in the room is in question. Under the direction of Gregory E. Zschomler, the cast includes veteran actors from the Woodland, Longview, SW Washington scene. Paul Segren of Longview plays the role of Inspector Goole, leading a cast of favorites. Don Smith in the role of the pompous Arthur Birling, as well as JoAnn Mc-Clanahan of Woodland, playing his wife Sybil Birling. David Roberts of Battle Ground plays Gerald Croft and Jennica Krohn makes her stage debut as the flighty Sheila Birling. Nicholas DiBartolomeo, also of Wood-land, plays her brother Eric Birling and Rebekah Krohn plays Edna. One of London’s most popu-lar plays, An Inspector Calls was first produced in 1946. The British film version was released in 1954. In 1992, the Royal Na-tional Theatre’s revival broke records with 19 awards, more than any other play in history, receiving Tony awards for Best Play Revival, Best Director, and Laurence Olivier awards for Best Revival, Best Director and Best Designer. Tickets range from $11-15 and are available by going to Love Street Playhouse’s web-site, www.lovestreetplayhouse.com. Love Street Playhouse is located at 126 Love Street in Woodland.

The La Center Historical Museum will host a “Spin-In” on Sat., April 21 from noon-4 p.m. A Great Walking Wheel, built in the 1880’s by Civil War Veteran and Clark Coun-ty Pioneer Ira Eddy Spencer, will be among the spinning wheels featured. Barbara Sizemore and other members of a North Clark County spin-ners and textile experts group will demonstrate spinning techniques, carding and spin-dling.

Museum admission is free, donations are accepted. Chil-dren are welcome and should be accompanied by an adult. The Museum is located at 410 West 5th Street, La Center. Contact Dr. Barbara Barnhart at (360) 263-3308 for addi-tional information. To learn more about the Museum, visit the Museum’s web site www.thelacentermu-seum.org and view the Great Spinning Wheel and other cur-rent exhibits on Face Book: La Center Historical Museum.

The Clark County Historical Museum will open their new-est exhibit, Above & Below the Fold: News Fit to Print, Tues. April 17 at 5 p.m. sharp with a traditional ribbon cutting by Ir-win Landerholm. Drawn from abstracts sum-marizing Clark County news-paper articles from 1850-1958 and compiled by Landerholm’s father, Carl, this exhibit is an overview of what Landerholm focused on in his comprehen-sive publication, the Vancouver Area Chronology. Carl Landerholm (1885-1961), had a 40-year career in Clark County’s public schools, serving as a popular teacher, principal, and superintendent before retiring in 1947. He as-sembled the Vancouver Area Chronology between 1956 and 1959, working steadily for 5-8 hours each day, poring over lit-erally millions of words in area

newspapers and documents. The Chronology is available in hard copy in the Museum’s Research Library and electroni-cally at their website, www.cch-museum.org. The exhibit will also feature additions of Clark County’s local newspapers, in-cluding The Reflector, which will be available in the “living room,” where viewers can also watch a televised demonstra-tion of how the Museum’s 1873 Washington hand press oper-ates. The event is free and open to the public and light refresh-ments will be served. The ex-hibit is sponsored in part by Landerholm Law Offices and Dovey and Irwin Landerholm. For more information, contact the museum, (360) 993-5679. The Clark County Historical Museum is located at 1511 Main St. in Vancouver.

The Vancouver Community Band and Clark College’s Con-tinuing Education program are looking for a few good trom-bonists, sax players, drum-mers, percussionists, and other former musicians interested in being a part of their Beginning Community Band course. Jim Rourk, the Band’s di-rector since 1992, will lead the course, which begins April 17, 6-7 p.m., and runs until May 22. “We’re looking for anyone who’s looking to be involved in a traditional marching band for the first time or musicians with prior experience and are look-ing to shake off some of the rust,” Rourk said. Rourk said all entrants in

the course would be part of the band, which operates in a traditional marching format, so electric guitars, synths and keytar players need not apply. “Since it’s the first quarter which we’re offering it, we’re hoping to get the word out and have a good turnout,” said JoAnn Ames, Program Man-ager of the Continuing Educa-tion Department. “But since it’s a non-credit course, having no stress, no tests, and no grades should make it a lot of fun.” The registration fee for the band is $29 and students will need to bring their own instru-ments. For more information, contact JoAnn Ames, (360) 992-2742, or go to Clark Col-lege’s website, www.clark.edu.

THE LA CENTER HISTORICAL MUSEUM will host a “Spin-In” on Sat., April 21 from noon-4 p.m. Barbara Sizemore and other members of the North Clark Coun-ty spinners and textile experts group will demonstrate spinning techniques, carding and spindling.
