In just a few short years, the country will be commemorating the semiquincentennial of the American Revolution. New York State played a central role in the war and should use this anniversary to highlight its history and grow its economy through heritage tourism. Panelists will discuss this unique opportunity for municipal historians, historic sites, and regional groups to engage the public in programming, lectures, publications, and celebrations that bring our history to the mainstage. Panelists include Devin Lander, Johanna Porr Yaun, and John Scherer.
