Blair Kamin, architecture critic for the Chicago Tribune, gave the keynote address at the Opening Plenary of the Second Annual Utah Preservation Conference on April 17, at the Auditorium of Utah Museum of Fine Arts on the campus of the University of Utah.

Friday, April 18 started at 7:45 AM, at our Breakfast to Sustain You, held in the Officer’s Club on Historic Fort Douglas. If you have not heard it already, the breakfast emphasized the saying that the "greenest building is the one that’s already built." We learned how historic preservation and new green building practices are breaking ground across Utah and setting national trends and why preservationists should be leading this cause.

Our Education Sessions covered a variety of topics from preservation experts in our community. Sessions are accredited by the American Institute of Architects. Below is a list of sessions, times, and presenters.  All sessions, except as noted, will take place at the University Guest House.
