Breaking Through Barriers: Living History in Modern Times

The 2017 ALHFAM Annual Meeting will be hosted by Genesee Country Village & Museum and take place June 11-13, 2017, with two days of professional workshops and field trips on June 9 and 10.

The theme of the meeting is "Breaking Through Barriers: Living History in Modern Times," encouraging attendees to "consider how their own museum, business or program has, or will, evolve to remove barriers that may inhibit growth, creativity, access to collections and information, communication, or even survival."

The Early Bird price for full conference registration is $400 for ALHFAM members and $430 for non-members. Price includes all sessions, meals, and site visits from June 11-13, and the "Salted, Smoked, and Pickled" Reception on June 10. The nonmember rate also includes a year-long membership to ALHFAM. Workshops and field trips on June 9-10 have additional fees. The Early Bird rate is available until April 30. After that date, the prices will be $475 for members, and $505 for non-members.

One-day registrations are also available and include all sessions, meals, and site visits on that day only. The price is $150 - there is no early-bird discount on one-day registrations.
