    For more information, see http://www.thehistorylist.com/events/national-alhfam-annual-meeting-conference-akron-ohio -- and http://www.alhfam.org/?cat_id=350#661 From the introduction to the conference booklet, which is also online on Scribd: "The theme of this year’s conference, Bringing It All to the Table: Feed Your Mind, Feed Your Body, looks at the increasing need for museums and historic sites to develop strategic partnerships with other museums, universities, corporations, and our communities to remain relevant and vital. The theme speaks directly to the opportunity for places like Hale Farm & Village to respond to a growing public desire for fresh, locally grown foods, as well as food of a different sort – knowledge. Museum professionals must be entrepreneurial about the business of history to succeed - to take risks, and be open to strategic partnerships that will allow us to achieve common goals. Taken literally, the conference features a multitude of sessions that explore the foodways of the last three centuries in America. The need for all of us to remain fresh, current, and relevant may appear to be at odds in some ways with our core missions to preserve and interpret the past. This conference respects the past and the knowledge of living history experts with presentations that encourage us to maintain integrity in our programs and remain true to our missions as we move forward. By Bringing It All to the Table, the conference we present offers ALHFAMers a smorgasbord of choices and opportunities to discover the region, acquire practical skills and knowledge, and become acquainted with like-minded colleagues. On behalf of the 2013 ALHFAM Conference Committee, the staff of Hale Farm & Village, and the Western Reserve Historical Society, we invite you to gather around our table for a conference that we believe will be a feast for the mind, body and spirit."
