Preservation in Pop Culture w/ NY Preservation League

LINK TO REGISTER

We often hear the refrain that “preservation has an image problem.” But what does historic preservation look like in the popular imagination? In this Roundtable, we’ll talk about some recent pop culture moments when preservation took center stage (from Lizzo playing James Madison’s crystal flute to murderous palazzo owners on The White Lotus). How can preservationists be part of the conversation when the general public takes notice? And how can we shift the conversation to make the field at large more widely understood and more welcoming?

Featured Speakers:

Our series of Preservation Roundtables is designed to provide a more interactive experience for anyone looking to find inspiration from people who have tackled similar preservation projects. Each roundtable will feature several speakers who will share their stories and expertise as part of a larger conversation with all participants. Part technical assistance and real-world case studies, part support group. Come with your questions and leave with new connections!

Thank you to our program sponsor, the Peggy N. & Roger G. Gerry Charitable Trust.
