Preservation Virginia is pleased to announce that it will partner once again with Virginia’s Department of Historic Resources (DHR) to host the 26th Annual Virginia Preservation Conference, Historic Preservation and Community Engagement: Saving Places That Matter, September 25-27, 2011 in Winchester. The conference will be held at the George Washington Hotel: 103 East Piccadilly Street.

Session topics will include a Social Media Panel: The Basics and How to Employ Resources, Best Practices; Advanced Preservation Law; The Huntsberry Farm at Third Winchester, An Adventure in Archaeology & History; Emerging Concepts in Cultural Landscape Conservation, and Building Strong Relationships with Local Communities.
