Dear Bag&Baggage friends and family,
I have news to share that carries both pride and a touch of bittersweet sadness.
This June, our Producing Artistic Director Nik Whitcomb will leave Bag&Baggage to begin a graduate degree in Urban Planning and to take on Community Engagement work with Tri-met, weaving his passion for connection into a broader commitment to community service.
Every history teacher I’ve ever had told me that we must look to the past to build a better future. This season at Bag&Baggage, we take that adage to heart with four incredible stories that explore our own history as an organization, confront the darker chapters of our nation’s past, and challenge us to consider who has the right to tell whose story—and in what ways.
