National Rosenwald Schools Conference
June 14-16, 2012 |
A century after Booker T. Washington met Julius Rosenwald and began a partnership for education that changed the nation, we will meet at the campus where it all began - Tuskegee University. The National Trust for Historic Preservation presents 100 Years of Pride, Progress and Preservation featuring education sessions, documentary films and poster presentations, along with hands-on workshops and tours to help novices and seasoned preservationists alike get organized, tackle, and finish their Rosenwald School projects. Plenary sessions, receptions, the conference bookstore, and book signings will provide attendees with plenty of networking opportunities, inspiring messages, and exciting entertainment. The line-up of national speakers include Nikki Giovanni, Dr. Mary Hoffschwelle, Dr. Peter Ascoli, and Robin Washington Banks—more will be announced soon.
Learn, network, commemorate, and celebrate at the first National Rosenwald Schools conference!
