SUMMARY:Pioneer Valley History Network - HistoryFest Pioneer Valley
DESCRIPTION:HistoryFest Pioneer Valley – Our Homespun History Conference\nSaturday\, April 12\, 2025 at \nWestfield State University \nJoin us for a gathering of local history enthusiasts\, high school age and up\, including local historians\, public history professionals\, genealogists\, preservationists\, academics\, and others\, in one place for one day of sharing. \nThis is a grassroots\, democratic way to gather and share ideas and information. Anyone can present. The topics that are presented are the ones the presenters are passionate about. The sessions that are well-attended are the ones that are of interest to the attendees. \nThere is no specific theme\, but presentations should be in some way related to the history of the Pioneer Valley or Massachusetts. Please\, no political diatribes or sales pitches for commercial products or services. Other than that\, the sky is the limit. \nThe cost is low — the goal is to break even. We want your participation. There will be plenty of opportunity for networking and an exhibit area for selling books and other history-related products. \nIf you would like to Present a Session\, contact us\, now\, at: pioneervalleyhistory@gmail.com \nRegistration to attend the event will begin on January 19th. \nPioneer Valley History Network \nHistory and Philosophy Department \n
