The Cultural Resources Essentials series occurs every two years. Workshops take place each spring and fall.  Beginning with The Basics, and then followed with Applications (being offered on November 13 and 14, 2008). The series will continue with Best Practices (spring 2009), and Forum (fall 2009). Completion of the Cultural Resources Essentials series will earn each participant a certificate from the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission (PHMC) and an acknowledgment of completion on the PHMC’s online consultant lists.

Applications will explain how the Bureau for Historic Preservation’s programs can be applied to community planning efforts and projects. We are pleased to announce that the workshop will have special guests with expertise in preservation planning at the local level participating on both days.  To register, please click on the URL.
