The Docomomo US National Symposium is the primary event in the United States for those interested in the preservation of modern architecture. The National Symposium seeks to gather, discuss, share and explore this heritage, while considering its legacy and importance today. Held annually, this multi-day conference seeks to engage local participation in cities across the United States, offering participants the ability to interact with and explore a wide variety of significant modern architecture and sites.

From June 21–25, experience New Haven, CT, one of the country’s most densely woven collections of midcentury art, design, and architecture. As we take in this cultural epicenter, we will consider the triumphs and complexities surrounding the design and construction of the Modern city, as well as the impact it has had on our collective communities.

This year's symposium includes 15 different sessions and over 40 speakers, plus bus and walking tours in New Haven and nearby. The closing plenary will be lead by Sara Bronin, Chair of the U.S. Advisory Council on Historic Preservation.
