As we move ever close to the commemoration of the founding of the United States and New York’s role in the American Revolution and the continuing struggle to achieve the ideals of liberty and equality set out in the Declaration of Independence, much work is being done at the state and local levels.
We heard about some of this work at NYSTIA’s Virtual 250th Summit held on January 30th (recording and slide decks are linked below). I would like to thank everyone who presented at that summit as well as everyone who attended. The response has been gratifying. Many of you have reached out to follow up and suggest future programming.
Save the Dates:
- As announced during the January 30th program, we are planning a second annual in-person 250th Commemoration Summit on the morning of Friday, September 12th, 2025, at the Fort William Henry Hotel and Conference Center.
- Join us for a panel discussion on Tourism and History: Perfect Together at the New York State History Conference to be held June 5-6, 2025, at the Cultural Education Center in Albany. Stay tuned for more information on that as the program is set. Read more...
