The Sierra Club was founded to preserve and protect our natural spaces, but preserving cultural resources is also an integral part of Sierra Club’s mission. Join us on Tuesday, July 23rd at 6:30PM to learn about the on-going work of the California Cultural Resources Preservation Alliance (CCRPA) to protect and preserve cultural resources such as sacred sites, archaeological sites, historic sites, traditional resource gathering areas, cultural landscapes, burial sites, and indigenous people’s traditional places in southern California with a focus on Orange and Los Angeles counties. Patricia Martz, Ph.D., founding member and president of the CCRPA will talk about efforts to help protect the traditional home of the Acjachemen in San Juan Capistrano resulting in the dedication of Putuidem Village in the northwest open space preserve. Tomato Springs in Irvine is another area rich in cultural significance in Orange County where the CCRPA has had some success.
