[MassHistPres] Call for Sessions & Presenters: 2021 MHPC

[Erin Kelly]

Preservation Massachusetts is seeking submissions for sessions and
presenters for the virtual Massachusetts Historic Preservation
Conference, September
23-24, 2021. This biennial statewide conference is an opportunity to gather
all involved with preservation, community, and advocacy to learn, share,
mentor, and network.



A virtual conference allows us to reach all communities across the
Commonwealth. From urban to rural, coastal to inland, our various regions
represent diverse approaches to the preservation of our historic buildings,
landscapes, histories, sites and resources. The conference will highlight
not only preservation successes, but also challenges and lessons learned.

Call for Live Sessions

Proposals should address a trend, issue, challenge, or opportunity through
a model project or discussion. Possibilities include but are not limited to:

●  best practices and case studies;

●  educational sessions for important programs and/or emerging technologies;

●  “how-to” of technical preservation; and

●  preservation practices.



Call for Virtual Tours

We also encourage proposals for pre-recorded virtual tours, which will be
available on-demand during the conference. These sessions should present
original content. Presentation formats could include:

   -

   Narrated Powerpoint presentations
   -

   Pre-recorded video tours using a variety of technologies (e.g.
   Matterport 3D virtual tours)


DEADLINE: Thursday, July 1, 2021

Submit proposals to Julie Roper, Conference Planner:
jroper at preservationmass.org by Thursday, July 1. Submissions must include:

●  proposed title/theme of session or tour;

●  suggested speaker(s) or tour leader(s);

●  description of session, identifying the intended audience;

●  session goals and how it relates to the statewide scope of the
conference; and

●  contact name, phone number, and email address.
