FORKS — The history of logging on the Olympic Peninsula will be presented from 6 to 8 tonight.
Conversations and a free pictorial presentation will be at the Olympic Natural Resources Center, 1455 S. Forks Ave. Doors will open at 5:30 p.m.
Those who attend will be urged to share their reflections.
Refreshments will be served. People are encouraged to bring a favorite desert to a potluck.
The interactive evening will include a viewing of the Northwoods Photographic Project by John Tylczak.
Tylczak’s photographic images from the 1980s feature logging on the West End during a time of great change and transition in the logging profession.
His photos will remain on display at the center through the beginning of the new year.
Tylczak’s photos will be preceded by a slideshow and narrative of historical logging photos by Jack Zaccardo.
Closing remarks on sustainable rural ecosystems will be made by the director of the natural resources center, Bernard Bormann.
The “Evening Talk” series is supported by the Rosmond Forestry Education Fund, an endowment that honors the contributions of Fred Rosmond and his family to forestry, education and the Forks community.
