Reconstructing the Preservation Movement

The world has changed greatly since the American preservation movement formally began with Ann Pamela Cunningham saving George Washington’s Mt.Vernon in 1853. As preservationists we are taught to learn from the past, but in our effort to preserve it have we forgotten to also look forward? Reflecting on how the preservation movement began Sarah Marsom will showcase examples of where it is going and help us conceptualize how preservation can be reconstructed to become a movement of, by, and for all. Let’s expand our toolkit, our understanding of who is a preservationist, and empower each other for the future of our communities!
