The Fruita Historic Preservation Board will host a Fruita History Fair on the second floor of the Fruita Civic Center, 325 East Aspen Avenue, Fruita, from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., on Saturday, May 21. There is no charge. There will be displays of historic artifacts and photographs, covering the importance of agriculture, ranching, business, families, schools, houses, the railroad, water, and Colorado National Monument to Fruita and the Grand Valley. There will also be tours of the historic Civic Center building and the Lower Valley Heritage Room, a continuous digital slide show, free Fruita History Coloring & Activity Books for children, period music played on an Edison cylinder phonograph, and more. Board members will identify and scan or photograph historic artifacts, photographs, and postcards brought in by the public. Attendees are encouraged to bring in such artifacts and photographs and to ask questions. We may not know all of the answers, but we will do our best to find them!
