Well renowned Athens area artist Kevin Morgan has been commissioned by Ohio’s Hill Country Heritage Area board to create a series of collectible images that tell the story of the region. The first of the series has been released and features an “Early People on the Land” theme. The image is currently available on comfortable extra heavy cotton t-shirts that are light gold printed with navy blue ink. The t-shirts are available in long or short sleeves and in small, medium, large, x-large. Short sleeve shirts are $15, long sleeve shirts are $20. They can be ordered by sending a check or money order to Ohio’s Hill Country Heritage Area for the amount of the t-shirt(s) plus $3 for shipping and handling per total order. Please include a note indicating the number of t-shirts, short or long sleeve preference(s), and t-shirt size(s) requested. Shipping and handling charge can be avoided by arranging a pick up from a board member by e-mailing us at admin@ohiohillcountry.org. Learning Cornerby Deanna & Ivan Tribe We all struggle with interpreting our heritage. Is it the "real McCoy" or is it fake? How do you authenticate your claims to important heritage stories and sites? Past President Deanna Tribe and her husband Ivan, professor of History at the University of Rio Grande provide an excellent deliberation on the topic of authenticity.
