COME OUT: For the 38th year in a row, We invite all our members to find out what we've been doing and what we’re planning to preserve and promote the best of Newark past. Take part in two hours of lively discussion in a restored mansion near Lincoln Park.
Our hoard of trustees will conduct a brief actual meeting, chaired by President Liz Del Tufo. Trustees will review current projects, including nomination of a half«dozen public schools for the National Register. We’ll also begin plans for our annual awards this May, when we’ll honor groups and individuals for efforts in the cause of preservation.
SEE AND HEAR! Our honored guest, Dr. Clement Alexander Price, one of New Jersey’s foremost historians, will talk about his work as vice chair of the National Advisory Council on Historic Preservation. He was appointed to the panel by President Obama last August. At Rutgers, he is distinguished professor of history and director of the Institute on Ethnicity, Culture, and the Modern Experience. In 2008 he received NPLC's Charles Cummings Award.
VOTE AND SPEAK! All members who are paid through 2011 can elect 8 of the 18 trustees for NPLC’s governing board. And everyone at the meeting can voice their comments and questions about our activities, including efforts to save the threatened 1720 Plume House and the 1837 Essex County jail. Light refreshments will be available for a $5 donation to Integrity, our host. Paid parking available on nearby streets and lots. Explore the two houses rebuilt into Williams Academy by Integrity.
