The New York Statewide Preservation Conference is the only event of its kind in the state – a multi-day gathering for anyone involved in preservation and community revitalization. This year, the Conference is presented in partnership by the Landmark Society of Western NY, GHHN, the Preservation League of New York State, NYS Office of Parks, Recreation, and Historic Preservation, and the City of Poughkeepsie and will include conservation and museum topics for the first time! GHHN is excited to partner in this Conference for the first time and this will act as our Annual Conference for 2025. This is a unique opportunity to learn and network with professionals from across the state, and we can’t wait to see you there.
Your Conference registration includes: an intensive, pre-Conference training session, tours, and Meet & Greet on Tuesday; a full day of breakout sessions, lunch, and Keynote on Wednesday; and your choice of field sessions on Thursday. In addition, the New York State Historic Preservation Awards and Reception, hosted by the State Office of Parks, Recreation, and Historic Preservation, will take place on Wednesday evening during the Conference. The Awards recognize individuals, organizations, agencies, and communities for recent projects demonstrating outstanding achievements in historic preservation efforts in New York State. The GHHN Awards for Excellence will be presented on Wednesday morning.
Our “home base” for this year’s Conference will be the Poughkeepsie DoubleTree Inn, formerly known as the Poughkeepsie Grand Hotel, located just blocks from the Union Street and Academy Street Historic Districts. We will be in close proximity to stunning views of the river valley at the Walkway Over the Hudson, as well as near the Culinary Institute of America and the historic FDR Home and Museum.
