Preservation New Jersey (PNJ) is pleased to announce the launch of its new Heritage Tourism Workshop Series, a comprehensive seven-part educational program designed to help historic sites, nonprofit organizations, museums, local governments, and preservation advocates prepare for the unprecedented opportunities presented by the nation’s Semiquincentennial and New Jersey’s continuing commemorations through 2033.
As communities across New Jersey commemorate the 250th anniversary of the American Revolution and related historic milestones over the next several years, the workshop series will provide participants with practical strategies to enhance visitor experiences, strengthen interpretation, expand audiences, and position historic resources as sustainable heritage tourism destinations.
The program is intended for historic site managers, museum professionals, nonprofit organizations, municipal officials, Historic Preservation Commissions, tourism professionals, volunteers, and community leaders working to celebrate New Jersey’s history while building long-term organizational capacity.
