  Throughout history, cultural crossroads have served as pivotal gathering places—where ideas are exchanged, traditions evolve, and communities are transformed. This year’s regional conference theme, Crossroads of Culture, reflects on the historical intersections that have shaped our identities, institutions, and landscapes. Set in Eugene, Oregon—a place with deep Indigenous roots and a legacy of migration, innovation, and activism—we will examine how the past informs the present, and how our understanding of cultural convergence can guide us toward a more inclusive and thoughtful future.

  The deadline to register is September 13th, 5pm PST.

  Early registration ends on September 5th. After that date, fees will increase to $150 for members and $190 for non-members of ALHFAM.

  MOMCC Fall Conference

  November 6-8, 2025
  Preserving History Through Living History

  Hosted by: The Illinois Amish Heritage Center, Lincoln Log Cabin State Historic Site, & the Five Mile House Foundation

  in Arthur, Lerna, & Charleston, Illinois

  Living History, beginning in the latter part of the 20th century, radically changed how history is taught, from traditional museum settings to experiential, hands-on learning, that opened new vistas in Museum education. In addition to living history museums, cultures such as the Amish have also preserved many of the ways and traditions of the 19th and early 20th century. Both living history museums and the Amish have adapted to changing times but are still preserving technologies and traditions.

  ALHFAM/MOMCC Member Early Registration: $130
