Presentations
Histórica has provided presentations to many organizations and institutions on a variety of subjects. All presentations are designed to meet the abilities and learning goals of the attendees. Whether you wish to introduce a small group to the basic concepts of historic preservation, promote historic preservation to decision-making bodies, or explain historic preservation processes to a neighborhood association, Histórica can assist with your requirements, provide a synopsis of the content for review prior to the presentation, and issue materials to further aid understanding of the topic.
