Meetings

At our August meeting, Dr. Michelle M. Martin will present a program entitled All the Sorrows of the World: Hannah Worcester Hicks & the Civil War in the Cherokee Nation.

Hannah’s diary provides insight into the chaos of the Civil War in the Ozarks, the important connections between the Cherokee Nation’s citizens and communities like Van Buren and Fort Smith, and the intense division at work in the Cherokee Nation at a critical time for the nation’s survival. The Hicks’ tragic story illustrates the human cost of war in Indigenous nations and western Ozark communities.

The monthly General Meetings will be a “Hybrid” meeting. We will have an in-person meeting in Conference Room C (main floor) at the Bartlesville Public Library. We will also provide Zoom access to the meeting.

The meeting will begin at 7:00 pm.
