Details
When our conference committee discussed a potential conference theme, it was a quick conversation. The Richmond Region has grown gradually over the past two decades, but this past year was challenging for Virginia’s capital. In 2020, the city underwent an explosion of physical as well as metaphorical change. From density growth to societal upheaval, removal of historic monuments, to protests for equality televised around the world, #RVA has experienced it all.
Museums, art and cultural organizations, and historic sites and their staffs have been greatly impacted by 2020, whether by the pandemic, current events, or community demands. The opportunities for discussion and debate at the 2022 conference are beyond measure.
