✨ What a day! Walked with the community from the Visitor Center to Fort Vancouver and joined the bicentennial ceremony marking 200 years since its founding.

Standing on the same ground where cultures, stories, and histories converged was humbling.

Clark County Historical Museum braces for cuts as DOGE eyes cultural institutions  Cultural institutions like the Clark County Historical Museum rely on programming and grants from Humanities Washington, which is in turn funded by the National Endowment for the Humanities.  

Museums and libraries, including the Cowlitz County Historical Museum and Vancouver’s Historic Trust, are among the latest group of nonprofits feeling the squeeze of federal funding cuts under the Trump administration.

Opinion | Why DOGE Slashed the National Endowment for the Humanities Eliminating federal funding for the humanities saves next to no money, but it will cost the American people something precious.

This will hurt so many people across our nation.
