Windows in Time: Memorable 4th of July Celebrations in Jackson County, 18+ YRS Online

July 4th has been an important community holiday in Jackson County since the late 1800s. Join Peter Finkle on a journey through time in the form of July 4th photos and stories. Learn what has stayed the same in our celebrations for more than 100 years — and what has changed.

Peter Finkle is the founder of WalkAshland.com, the premiere website about life in Ashland, Oregon. It is filled with photo essays about Ashland history, art, neighborhoods, gardens, holidays, Trees of the Year and more. Peter leads Ashland History and Art walking tours, as well as speaking to local community groups. He also writes for Ashland.news, Ashland Living magazine and other publications.

The 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.
