Echoes of Belonging: Public Art Dedication

Echoes of Belonging: Public Art Dedication Saturday, September 19, 1:00 – 3:00 pm Gather at Lake Oswego Public Library for the Echoes of Belonging Public Art Dedication, a community event centered on reflection, dialogue, and belonging. Echoes of Belonging will become part of the City’s permanent collection, with Lake Oswego Public Library selected as the site for the completed work. Created by artist Sahara Aylanna Defrees, and developed through a collaborative partnership between the City of Lake Oswego, Respond to Racism, and the Arts Council of Lake Oswego, the installation seeks to acknowledge and educate about the history of exclusion and racism in Lake Oswego and the region while inspiring a more inclusive future. Through interpretive panels, interactive elements, and community engagement opportunities, the project invites reflection and dialogue, fostering greater understanding and connection.

Lake Oswego Public Library is located at 706 Fourth Street, Lake Oswego.
