An open call for proposals to host our next annual conference
-
Have you ever wanted to gather a large group of living history colleagues at your site?
-
Does your site want a chance to highlight its buildings, collections, and programs to others in the field?
-
Would you like to have all of your living history friends visit your own facility to share information and for fellowship and fun?
Consider submitting a proposal to host the next Texas Living History Association Conference and Annual meeting!
The TLHA Board has created a Conference Host Proposal Packet to solicit bids to host the next conference. The document outlines all of the things you would need to know to put a conference host proposal together. It outlines the responsibilities of the host site, what logistics and assistance TLHA provide.
