  Huh?  The CPF conference is in April, nearly 3 months away.  OHP has been announcing it for at least a couple months already. Hope to see you there!

    Please pass the word on about this conference. We hope to see many Cal CLGs there!

    San Francisco, CA, January 28, 2008 -- The California Preservation Foundation, in partnership with Napa County Landmarks, will present its 33rd annual statewide conference in Napa Valley, April 23-26, 2008. The theme for the conference is Balance and Complexity: The Vineyard and Beyond. 

    Balance and Complexity will bring together over 500 state-wide planners, educators, museum directors, Native American groups, architects, engineers, historians, designers, librarians, city and government staff, and the public. This broad attendee base will explore critical statewide historic preservation issues while also looking at historic landscapes within the Napa Valley.

    The four day conference will feature over 35 sessions and workshops to highlight Napa Valley's agricultural, historic and cultural legacy as well as addressing the integration of green sustainability within a historical context. Attendees may choose many different educational seminars, from study tours held at unique architectural wineries, gardens, caves and once renowned resorts to pertinent workshops held in historic venues, or, listen to a variety of panels.

    Plenary session speaker James Conaway is an acclaimed author of ten books including The Far Side of Eden: New Money, Old Land and the Battle for Napa Valley, The Smithsonian: 150 Years of Adventure, Napa: The Story of an American Eden and his latest book, Vanishing America. Mr. Conaway is the editor at large for Preservation magazine as well as writing articles for numerous other magazines. 

    From an examination of local Native American cultures to agricultural transitions and on to Napa's unique architectural evolution, the conference will explore what is historically and culturally unique about Napa Valley. "Napa Valley is an ideal location for this event because of it's diverse cultural influences, it's extraordinary array of landmark structures and the unparalleled natural beauty which provide a backdrop to showcase local issues of statewide importance," Cindy Heitzman, President California Preservation Foundation.
