<br /> <br />On Wednesday, Nov. 12, at 6 p.m., at the Downtown Library, the focus will be “Life after War: Photographs and Oral <br />Histories of Coming Home.” Award-winning photographer Jim Lommasson has collected oral histories from returning <br />soldiers and documented their struggles at home. This gathering will address questions starting with “When does a war <br />end? Does it ever?” As Lomasson says, “Many returning soldiers bring wars back with them, and these wars can reach <br />beyond the battlefield or firefight, infiltrating the very thing that defines comfort and safety: home.” <br /> <br />For more information, contact the Eugene Public Library at www.eugene-or.gov/library or 541-682-5450. <br /> <br />Campbell Center Holds 14 Annual Bazaar <br />th <br />There’s no better way to get in the holiday spirit than by attending Campbell Community Center’s annual Holiday Bazaar, <br />where one can find gifts everyone will love.
