Parks Virtual Informational Online Open House #1: Tue, Sep 22, 2020 1PM-2PM

Get Invloved, Make a Difference
When: Tue, Sep 22, 2020 1PM-2PM |
Join us for a virtual open house, to be held with two separate one-hour Zoom sessions that fit your schedule.
We'll review:
- Community feedback on six park concept plan designs
- Concept plan report outlining potential enhancements for Gresham's six undeveloped parks, which aim to reflect the needs of each neighborhood and the overall Gresham community while also protecting access to nature
A vital part of the City's planning process is hearing from the community, to ensure all voices are heard. Since early 2019, Gresham residents have provided input through online surveys as well as on-site and virtual events. The concepts aim to meet the current and future demands of Gresham's growing population. They also outline financial needs for developing the parks in the future if funding is identified.
A Zoom link to register for this event will be posted soon.
For questions about this event, contact Tina Osterink, Natural Resource Planner at Tina.Osterink@GreshamOregon.gov or 503-618-2392.

Zimmerman House Tours: Vases and Valentines: Sat, Mar 14, 2020 12PM-4PM

Holiday Hearts
When: Sat, Mar 14, 2020 12PM-4PM |
The historic Zimmerman House was built in 1874 and was home to three generations of the Zimmerman family. Their furnishings and personal articles remain in this two-story Victorian home, with nine rooms open to the public.
Our “Vases and Valentines” exhibit is now open. We are pairing the valentines with vases, and these vary from Depression Glass to Carnivale Glass to pottery from Roseville, Hull and van Briggle. This is the first time we’ve pulled the vases in the collection into an exhibit and many of these have rarely been out of storage.
We’ll have the contents of a traveling trunk found in the house, which belonged to Isobel’s uncle, Andrew McCall, on exhibit for just a few more months.
We are open the third Saturday of every month from noon - 4:00 pm. Admission is free, with donations welcome and appreciated.
