Submitting an Idea
Simply fill out the form below. You may submit as many ideas as you would like. Simply refresh this page to submit another idea.
We are accepting ideas no later than Thursday, August 31st, 2023. Conference organizers are particularly interested in ideas that push the field of historic preservation in new directions, especially in terms of its engagement with diverse communities (in terms of race, class, gender, age, etc); strategies for grassroots advocacy; place-based interpretation; and means of addressing environmental sustainability and climate resiliency. We encourage submissions that consider preservation broadly to include public history, digital humanities, materials-based conservation methods, and various tools for documentation, planning, and preservation.
