Congreso 2022
April 28-30, 2022 |
As the only conference of its kind, Congreso offers three days of content focused specifically on the topic of Latinx heritage conservation. Congreso provides a national forum to amplify regional efforts, successes as well as challenges, with the goal of building a culturally and geographically diverse movement for all American Latinxs.
In partnership with Historic Denver Inc, LHC will host Congreso 2022 in Denver, Colorado, April 28-30, 2022. Guided by the belief that historic preservation should be accessible, more inclusive, and reflective of her people, Congreso 2022 will center the Intermountain Region, explore multiple perspectives, and ignite the next wave of Latinx heritage practitioners.
The conference will also affirm LHC's national vision which is focused on inclusion and historic preservation equity. 2020 marked the tenth anniversary since the Department of the Interior launched the American Latino Heritage Initiative, making this an ideal time to reflect on and celebrate Latinx preservation while highlighting Latinx historical presence, 20th century urban history, contributions to American democracy, Sacred Indigenous sites, and cultural landscapes.
