Encuentro: A National Conference on Latino Heritage and Historic Preservation
April 26, 2018
$30
Latinos in Heritage Conservation, Rhode Island Latino Arts, and the Rhode Island Historical Preservation & Heritage Commission are proud to present Encuentro 2018. Spanning three days of programs in Providence and the Blackstone Valley, this groundbreaking event brings together the 3rd National Convening of Latinos in Heritage Conservation and the 33rd Annual Statewide Rhode Island Historic Preservation Conference.
For the first time, Latinos in Heritage Conservation is bringing a national conversation about Latino historic preservation to New England. Featuring guest speakers from across the country and opportunities to meet and exchange ideas with fellow practitioners and advocates for Latino historic preservation, this is a not to be missed opportunity.
If you enjoy tours by local preservation leaders, Saturday’s program is for you. After we convene for a keynote address, visit Latino neighborhoods, historic places associated with underrepresented communities (Providence’s Chinatown, LGBTQ history, African Americans of College Hill, Pond Street), urban renewal, public art, and more. Rhode Island Latino Arts, RIHPHC, and local partners have planned several special events to round out the schedule. (Note: Many tours align with Rhode Tours so this is a great way to explore the heritage of Providence!)
We hope that you will join us for this landmark gathering that will bring together preservationists, scholars, students, design professionals, and community advocates for an unprecedented discussion of the value and future of heritage conservation in Latino communities, Rhode Island, and beyond.
Registration fees:
$30 Thursday – Friday | $50 Saturday ($80 for Thursday – Saturday)
$15 Thursday – Friday | $25 Saturday for students with i.d. ($40 for Thursday – Saturday)
Registration deadline is April 17th! www.regonline.com/builder/site/?eventid=2169026
