2024 APT-DVC Symposium/TTRAG Open Conference
Bridging Generations: Tradition and Progress in Preservation
Lancaster, Pennsylvania, May 17-19
The Association for Preservation Technology’s Delaware Valley Chapter (APT-DVC) and the Timber Framers Guild’s Traditional Timber Frame Research & Advisory Group (TTRAG) come together to present Bridging Generations: Tradition and Progress in Preservation.
Event Description:
This event combines TTRAG’s first open, in-person conference since 2018 with APT-DVC’s biennial symposium. As both organizations approach their 40-year anniversaries, we recognize that we are at a point where leadership is being transferred to a new generation of preservationists.
Our common mission is to preserve the skills and structures that were passed down from previous generations. This event will explore how best to engage and train the next generation of preservation professionals and tradespeople to make the best use of the embodied knowledge and skill sets of those that came before us, while incorporating new technologies and strategies that become available.
Presentations and discussions will fall under the following topics:
❖ Education and Training in Preservation
❖ Project Team & Interdisciplinary Relations
❖ Traditional Materials and Associated Trades
