What is Bmore Historic?<\/span><\/h3>\n

Bmore Historic is a participant-led unconference on public history, historic preservation and community development in the Baltimore region and across the state of Maryland. Organized in partnership between Baltimore Heritage, the Greater Baltimore History Alliance, the Maryland Association of History Museums, Maryland Historical Society, the Maryland Historical Trust, Preservation Maryland, and the UMBC Orser Center, Bmore Historic is an opportunity to connect with local historians, humanities scholars, preservation advocates, museum professionals, archivists, and anyone interested in exploring the vital intersections between people, places and the past in Baltimore and Maryland. We\u2019re bringing people together and you set the agenda.<\/p>\n

What is an \u201cunconference\u201d?<\/span><\/h3>\n

Unlike most traditional academic or professional meetings, an unconference is a created and managed by the participants, with the content of the conference determined day-by-day during the course of the event, rather than in advance by the organizers. Unconferences are not a spectator sport. Leave your PowerPoint at home, we\u2019re not looking for presentations, just people who are ready share their knowledge and discuss their work.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
