Oregon’s Early Chinese American History

Chinese immigrants and their descendants have lived in Oregon since before statehood. Yet, despite contributing everything from the building of the Willamette Falls Locks to the cultivation of the Bing cherry, their stories are given scant attention. In this presentation, Dr. Jennifer Fang, Director of Interpretation & Community Engagement at the Pittock Mansion, will delve into the history of Oregon's early Chinese Americans and their often-overlooked contributions.
