Twenty-five years ago, the first "Gathering of the Trades" demonstrated that sharing, learning, and talking with tools in hand filled a void in the mainstream preservation movement some doubted even existed. Our mission is to empower the traditional building trades through network, good works, community, fellowship and education. Trades education has always been anc continues to be our central focus and the driving force behind the International Preservation Trades Workshop. This year IPTW returns to where it all began -- the National Park Service's Historic Preservation Training Center in Frederick, Maryland. Read more about the first IPTW held here in 1997.
Pre-conference workshops, sessions, and registration details will be updated regularly on this page. Check back to see them as they post, and we'll see you in Maryland!
