<p>The conference is a time for people who share a common passion for Oregon’s heritage and history to come together to share insights, understand connections, develop relationships, learn new ways, reinforce the value of the work and leave energized to keep
moving forward. With all of the demands on people including information overload, home life, work tasks and all the things…the conference will be a place to Make Space. The way to move Oregon heritage work forward is to Make Space: clear the clutter, set priorities,
build relationships, and plan for the time it takes. <a href="https://www.oregon.gov/oprd/OH/Pages/heritageconference.aspx">
