2015 Arizona Historic Preservation Conference
May 13-15, 2015 |
The Arizona State Historic Preservation Office, the Arizona Preservation Foundation, and the City of Flagstaff invite you to join them at the 13th Annual Arizona Historic Preservation Conference. This year’s conference, “Paths to Preservation” is being held in Flagstaff on May 13th-14th, 2015. The goal of the Conference is to bring together preservationists from around the state to exchange ideas and success stories, to share perspectives and solutions to preservation issues, and to foster cooperation between the diverse Arizona preservation communities.
At this year’s conference we will analyze the different paths to preservation. Although these paths are not always defined, they still convey a direction or process to follow. Whether a literal path, such as a historic highway, roadway or trail, or a procedural path, such as rehabilitation, adaptive re-use or the process of listing a site or property on the National Register, these paths are there to guide us to our desired location or result. Through examples from businesses, communities, and even government agencies, we will share the pathways that guide preservationists in their efforts to save our historic and cultural heritage.
The Preservation Awards will be the focal event of the Conference. The 33rd Annual Governor’s Heritage Preservation Honor Awards, presented by the State Historic Preservation Office and the Arizona Preservation Foundation, recognize people, organizations, and projects that represent outstanding achievements in preserving Arizona’s prehistoric and historic resources. The 29th Annual Governor’s Awards in Public Archaeology are also presented at the event.
These awards, selected by the Governor’s Archaeology Advisory Commission,
recognize excellence in archaeological awareness, conservation and education.
The awards make the conference more than a venue to learn, debate and network, but also a celebration of outstanding historic preservation efforts and achievements.
As we move forward, it is imperative that we work together to build a path for the future of our valuable historic resources.
