Janeen Trevillyan, Director of the Sedona Heritage Museum will present “History of Sedona — 0 to 20,000 in 135 years”, brief history of the greater Sedona area from the day Jim Thompson dropped over the side of the Mogollon Rim and found an abandoned Apache garden in Oak Creek Canyon. Illustrated with historic photos, this presentation tells the Oak Creek Canyon — Sedona story through major historic themes: homesteaders, cowboys, movie-making, government, and art, among others.
