Mark your calendar for the fifth annual Preservation in a Changing Climate conference, hosted by Salem’s Preservation in a Changing Climate Partners. This day of thought-provoking talks aims to advance mitigation and adaptation strategies that address impacts of climate change on historic buildings, landscapes and neighborhoods.
Join us for case studies, conversations and panel presentations, beginning with a keynote from Christina Rae Butler, Provost and Professor of Historic Preservation and Architectural History at the American College of the Building Arts and author of Lowcountry at High Tide: A History of Flooding, Drainage, and Reclamation in Charleston, South Carolina. We will close with remarks by National Park Service Superintendent Jennifer Hardin at the National Park Service Armory Visitor Center.
