📣 Please join us for 🎙 Preservation in Action: Journalism and the Wilbur J. Cohen Federal Building
🗓 Tuesday, March 24
⏰ 5:00 PM PST / 8:00 PM EST
This free webinar explores the tensions between historic preservation advocacy and journalism—two very different kinds of work that, under our national historic preservation laws, are essential for saving historic places.
Journalists have different goals and responsibilities than advocates, yet their reporting plays a vital role in historic preservation by informing the public about emerging threats, identifying decision-makers, documenting efforts to prevent harm, and highlighting critical deadlines for action.
Hear from leading voices in the press who have been covering the Wilbur J. Cohen Federal Building story!
Timothy Noah (The New Republic)
Daniel Jonas Roche (The Architect’s Newspaper)
Kelsey Ables (The Washington Post)
Ben Peters (Washington Business Journal)
Together, they’ll discuss how investigative reporting, architectural and art criticism, and local journalism have shaped national coverage of the Cohen Building and all the complex issues it raises.
