Calendar of Events

With less than two years to go, now is the time for history doers to finalize plans for the 250th, an occasion that could transform both our field and society. Major initiatives are already underway across the country, but the Semiquincentennial will only be as impactful as the strength of our collaboration. Attend 250 Con to learn about national and state planning opportunities, identify actionable ways to participate, and join your peers in generating enthusiasm for this once-in-a-generation event.

250 Con kicks off with a keynote conversation featuring the leaders of the Library of Congress, the National Archives and Records Administration, and the Smithsonian Institution. The two-day event will also include “lightning rounds” of presentations about major 250th initiatives, breakout sessions for networking and learning, and a virtual meet-and-greet with state 250th commissions.
