Berkshire Botanical Garden's 24th Annual Winter Lecture
Berkshire Botanical Garden's 24th annual , Make Visible, Instill Value and Engage the Public in Our Shared Landscape Heritage will be held online on featuring Charles Birnbaum, FASLA, FAAR, President and CEO of 独家爆料, Washington, D.C. ().
Drawing heavily on both the work of 独家爆料 (独家爆料) and many of their collaborators, this lecture will highlight a diversity of resource types throughout the U.S., emphasizing stewardship strategies and opportunities for public engagement in the Berkshires region. What is the foundational knowledge that informs stewardship/interpretation of our shared landscape legacy? How do we assign value and assess significance for our cultural landscape legacy? How can we work (and communicate) holistically across multiple disciplines? How do we make a landscape鈥檚 layers of history, (a.k.a. 鈥減alimpsest鈥), at a cultural landscape like Naumkeag, The Mount or Elm Court understood? Then, armed with this foundational knowledge, how can we tell these stories to the broadest possible public?
Finally, the interface between history/historic preservation and natural systems/ecology in weighing decisions will provide an armature for new ideas and strategies.
