ANNOUNCEMENT:  We are sad to report, due to unforeseen financial costs we have made the hard decision to cancel the Fall 2023 Conference at Tiller's International.

Instead, we will hold a virtual Town Hall Gathering to get much needed input from all MOMCC members; and the Annual Business meeting to announce elected officers, by-laws updates, and the Candice Metallic award.  Also, Resource Groups will meet for lively discussion on your favorite topics.  This will happen on Fri. and Sat. Nov. 10 & 11.  Watch for the official schedule and registration.

    It never hurts to revisit fundamentals, especially as we refresh for a new season and prepare for the upcoming America250 initiative. Mahaffie Stagecoach Stop & Farm and Shawnee Town 1929 welcome museum professionals, volunteers, historians, and enthusiasts to the Kansas City metro in March of 2025 for the Midwest Open-Air Museums Coordinating Council's spring conference.

    With two dozen possible sessions, one dozen workshops, and some incredible field trip opportunities, you'll have the chance to explore everything from 19th-century textiles to 1920s automobiles, from Freeman Tilden's "Principles of Interpretation" to reworking school programs for COVID kids.

    Taking Living History Over the Top
    SEALHFAM Regional Conference

    March 14 - 16, 2025

    Pall Mall, Tennessee



    Conference Call For Proposals

    We are constantly creating interpretive programs, but what takes those programs to the next level? How do we create programs that leave lasting impressions on our visitors? We need to use interpretive methods that allow our visitors to immerse their senses and emotions throughout our programs and events. Grab your gear and climb out of the trenches with us as we “Take Living History Over the Top” at Sgt. Alvin C. York State Historic Park.

    As we climb out of the trenches, we want to focus on those developments made on the farm, in rural areas, and in agriculture around the turn of the 20th century, as well as the improvements that emerged from the Great War.

    Have a topic or program in mind? We invite you to submit your presentation proposal to Cassie.Kazmark@tn.gov before January 20th for the SEALHFAM Regional conference in Pall Mall, Tennessee, March 14-16, 2025. We welcome volunteers, directors, and all interpreters and hope you will join us and be able to “Take Living History Over the Top” at your own institutions!
