<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">The power of heritage has never before been made so clear as it has in recent times. In 2020 we had planned to inspire heritage organizations at the conference, to help you realize
and enact your organization's power within your communities. Instead, you blew us away the past two years with your proactive actions, your steadfastness, and most of all, your resilience. From proactive collecting for historic events, providing information
about similar historic events, responding to civil unrest, saving historic sites from fires, to just surviving financial uncertainty. You harnessed the power, now let's embrace it and multiply it. Join us April 27-29 as we explore ways in which heritage preservation
empowers communities, uncovers untold stories, preserves history in the making, creatively engages audiences, and proves its value.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

archaeology, historic cemeteries, and more. Whether you want to strengthen your organization, identify tools and resources for your efforts, engage with the community, advocate for support, or create new appreciation for Oregon heritage in its many forms,
you will want to attend.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
