OHC Annual Meeting and Community Awards
Gather with friends and meet new ones at the Heritage Center's annual dinner and program. The highlight of the evening will be a visit from historical figure Edmonia Lewis. Lewis was of mixed African and Native American heritage and came to Oberlin as a college student in 1859. Her time at Oberlin was marked by discord that pulled away the veil of Oberlin's vaunted racial harmony. Prevented from graduating, she left to build a career in art through commissioned work and among the studios of Europe, becoming a prominent neoclassical sculptor. Lewis will be portrayed by actress Sherrie Tolliver of the Cleveland-area nonprofit Women in History. The evening also includes a brief business meeting and the presentation of the 17th Annual Community Awards.
Invitations with further details will be mailed to OHC members in mid-February. All are welcome. Add your name to the mailing list by sending an email to members@oberlinheritage.org.
