SUMMARY:How Whiskey Won Washington
DESCRIPTION:Tri-Cities Community Lecture Series Presents: \nHow Whiskey Won Washington \nWashington has a mixed history with liquor. Efforts to ban or restrict it date back to 1854\, before the region even attained statehood\, and “blue laws” remained on the books well into the twentieth century. Yet a modern craft distilling boom is happening in the Evergreen State\, and our distillers have emerged as forerunners in the burgeoning American Single Malt revolution. \nHow did whiskey inspire both trouble and innovation? How did its import by settlers affect Indigenous communities and other groups? And how did whiskey play a role in the very creation of our state? Join author and journalist Becky Garrison as she distills the history of the barrel and the bottle in our state. Meet Jimmie Durkin\, an enterprising saloon owner\, and Roy Olmstead\, a former Seattle cop turned gentleman bootlegger\, and other fascinating figures who turned to the business of liquor. \nA graduate of Yale Divinity School and Columbia University School of Social Work\, Becky Garrison has been covering this region’s food\, beer\, and liquor culture for over a decade. Garrison’s nine books include Distilled in Washington: A History\, the first book that documents the history of distilling in our state. The book was selected as a Top Ten Spirited Awards 2025 Nominee by the Tales of the Cocktail Foundation. In her work\, Garrison seeks to explore the intersections of craft culture\, sustainability\, spirituality\, and community building. \nFree to the public. No advance registration required. \nHosted by: Franklin County Historical Society & Museum
