A few weeks ago I ventured down the Ohio River Greenway from the Falls of the Ohio River Interpretive Center in search

of the George Rogers Clark Home Site for the first time.

It took a bit longer than I had anticipated, but upon seeing the reimagined log cabin that was Clark’s retirement home sparked my curiosity: What did the shoreline look like in the early 1800s? What did Clark see when he stood on his porch and gazed out at the Ohio River?

This weekend history comes alive with George Rogers Clark Days, which you can read about in today’s center-piece.

Re-enactors will offer a glimpse into pioneer life by portraying members of the Clark family and 18th- and 19th-century militiamen, surveyors and frontiersmen.

Also, you can try your hand at atlatl throwing (Ameri-can Indian spear throwing), as well as soaking up tons of

cultural activities.Fun for the whole family.Speaking of good-natured entertainment,

Charlestown will host Founder’s Day events this weekend at the downtown square. The event recognizes Charles Beggs, a surveyor who helped designate three acres of land that became the municipality in 1808. The event offers live music, including a performance by the Louisville Crash-ers on Saturday, arts and craft vendors and plenty of fair-style food, Gary Popp writes in today’s

cover story.History is a living, breathing thing. That’s nowhere

more evident than in Southern Indiana.

NEW ALBANY — Anyone is welcome to participate in creating a temporary, site-specific artwork with Neil Goss, whose talk is titled “Live and Dye Naturally,” on the grounds of the Carnegie Center on June 30. No prior experience with making art is necessary. Participants will have the opportunity to create a medicinal to-tem and energy-filtering spider webs, forms the artist enjoys working with, according to a Carnegie news release. Participants will also have the chance to try backstrap weaving, and discuss natural dyeing, herbal medicine, and environmental art.

Goss (neilgoss.com ) is an artist based in Lawrence, Kansas, who has a deep respect for the Earth. For the past five years, he has worked with natural processes to create compelling site-specific artworks across the country. He has focused his life on researching and practic-ing sustainable arts processes such as natural dyeing, backstrap weav-ing, and utilizing hand dug clay to create sustainable and biodegradable

works of art. Goss is a practicing and professional artist and teaches pottery and natural dyeing at the Lawrence Arts Center.

This summer, Goss is embarking on an ambitious across-the-country pub-lic art making tour he is calling “East to West: Medicinal Art Tour.”

CHARLESTOWN — Charlestown’s nearly month-long Founder’s Day celebration will be in full swing this weekend.

The event recognizes Charles Beggs, a surveyor who helped designate three acres of land that became the municipality in 1808.

Founder’s Day is focused more on fun than history, however, as the “Star and Stripes” theme will offer days of live music, including a performance by the Louisville Crashers on Saturday, arts and craft vendors and plenty of fair-style food.

This month marks the 15th consecutive year com-munity members and city officials have organized Founder’s Day.

Activities began June 6 and will continue through Saturday night with a firework display at 10 p.m. at the city square.

The celebration is hosted by the Charlestown Beau-tification Committee and city officials. Committee chairperson and city Clerk Treasurer Donna Coomer said it takes nearly a full year to plan the Founder’s Day activities.

“We all work together to make this happen, a lot of hours and a lot of long evenings and meetings,” Coomer said of the nearly 100 Beautification Commit-tee members’ efforts. “So many of the members have so much passion for Charlestown.”

She said the committee is dedicated to other proj-ects throughout the year to enhance the aesthetics and community fellowship in the city.

“I think the people in Charlestown really enjoy all of the different events,” Coomer said, adding that Founder’s Day often serves as a reunion for former and current city residents. “A lot of people come home who don’t live here anymore to see people they haven’t seen in a long time. It has been just a great thing for the community.”

Coomer estimated that each year nearly 10,000 people will visit the Charlestown city square to enjoy Founder’s Day activities.

New programs were added this year to the festivi-ties, including a basketball free throw competition, a homemade cake and pie contest and a kiddie tractor pull.

Founder’s day schedule:All events, except for the parade, are in the Charlestown city square.
