Hotel Information
UPDATE: The block of conference-rate rooms at the Hilton Portland is sold out for Wednesday, March 10. There are some rooms available on March 11 , 12, & 13, but they are going quickly. BUT it is worth checking again later, as more space might become available. As of 2/17, there were no student-rate rooms available. The Hilton is our main conference hotel.
An additional block of rooms has been reserved at the Paramount Hotel, directly across the street from the Hilton, for a special rate of $134. Call (503) 223-9900 by Feb. 16 Feb. 24 to reserve a room. Ask for the National Council on Public History rate.
A new block of student-rate rooms is reserved at Hotel Fifty. Use this link, Hotel Fifty – student block, to reserve a room (before Feb. 28). Hotel Fifty is on the waterfront, seven blocks from the Hilton. (Note: Portland city blocks are only 200 ft., less than half the size of blocks in most other cities.)

Call for Dine Around Topics and Facilitators
We’re looking for several volunteers to suggest a topic for “dine arounds” on Thursday, March 11 (7:00 -9:00 pm). Volunteer facilitators pick a focus for the dinner conversation, select a nearby restaurant (a breeze in cosmopolitan Portland!) and make dinner reservations, and agree to lead their group to dinner. Participants simply stop by the conference registration desk to sign up on the dine around list of their choice. (Space is limited, but it’s free; participants cover the cost of their own dinner.) Email us your ideas.
