Join the VMHC for the third annual Conrad M. Hall Symposium for Virginia History, an event where historians, practitioners, and members of the public will gather to explore our shared past.
Beginning the day will be a special keynote panel featuring leading scholars of the American Revolution, Drs. Alan Taylor, Karin Wulf, and Sarah McCartney, in a conversation about the meaning of the United States 250th and the participants’ contributions to the VMHC’s exhibition Give Me Liberty: Virginia & The Forging of a Nation.
Guests will then have the opportunity to hear from 16 panels comprising more than 50 experts representing more than 20 colleges, universities, and public history institutions from across the Commonwealth and nation during a full day of engaging presentations that highlight groundbreaking research into Virginia history around the theme of "Revolution." See the Program Agenda below for the full list of panel topics.
In addition to compelling panel discussions, guests will have access to tailored museum experiences that highlight revolutions in Virginia and an exhibitor hall featuring historical organizations from across the state. Ending the day will be a reception for guests and speakers to mingle and reflect on the day’s learning.
Tickets to the event include museum admission, the keynote lecture, all panel discussions, and an evening reception.
