Wednesday, September 18 9:00 am –10:00 am REGISTRATION Location: Rome Area History Museum, 305 Broad Street, Rome, GA 30161 10:00 am – 11:30 am Track A: Partnering for Preservation: Saving Zuber Cemetery Beverly Boone Meek and Ellen Watters Sullivan The Partnering for Preservation: Saving Zuber Cemetery workshop will highlight ways in which cemeteries can partner to help build the case for preserving these historical heritage sites that are normally not considered as viable connections. In this workshop, we will share information about traditional successful partnerships, i.e., preservation societies, historical commissions, churches, local governmental agencies; however, we will emphasize the unusual partnerships Zuber has delved into to support its preservation efforts. This includes a slavery past that has connected slave and slave-owner families; a local college and its student volunteers, history department and botanical research; a visual artist and professor who plans to create bronze grave markers using ancient African lost wax casting. In breakout sessions, participants will revisit partnerships specific for their communities and rethink how they might garner unexpected support for their preservation efforts and walk away with an outline of a “five-point plan” to implement. Location: Rome Area History Museum Room A Track B: At the Table or On the Menu: Revitalization & African American Places Mable Thomas, Ed Grant, Jr., and Malik R. Watkins The current hypothesis that an unintended consequence of successful revitalization of business corridors and residential communities is a homogenization of those elements that makes these places significant and attractive to visitors and residents alike can be tested in cities across Georgia.
