The 2017 annual meeting of the Association for Living History, Farm and Agricultural Museums (ALHFAM) will take place June 9-13, 2017, hosted by Genesee Country Village & Museum in Mumford, NY. The meeting will be headquartered at the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) Inn and Conference Center in Henrietta, NY.

The call for papers and information about the meeting is now available on the ALHFAM website: http://alhfam.org/2017-Annual-Conference.

This year there is no form to fill out for a session/workshop/paper proposal: the call for papers includes the information potential presenters need to submit along with their proposals. Questions specifically related to the content of the sessions themselves should be addressed to Brian Nagel, director of interpretation at Genesee Country Village and Museum, or Lynne Belluscio, director, LeRoy Historical Society.

For information about the conference, including lodging, professional workshops and field trips, should be addressed to Melanie Diaz, director of special events at Genesee Country Village & Museum.

Proposals are due on December 2, 2016.

Hope to see you at Genesee Country Village and Museum next June!
