After the disbanding of the organization Gorge Grown, there was a question if the 11th season of the Sense of Place lecture series would take place. But the Mt. Adams Institute took over the responsibility for the series and Sarah Fox from the Institute says they have gotten very positive feedback from the community. The series will go virtual this season and that could actually open up some guests and subjects that before couldn’t come to Hood River for the series. They will also archive all shows, so those who can’t catch them “live” can go online anytime and see them. Funding is another question they are dealing with. Fox said the programs may be free, with donations accepted. At this time, they are taking Requests for Proposals from possible lecturers. The deadline is August 7th.
