PACA brings together conservation and preservation professionals in the greater Philadelphia area. We offer programs that feature local institutions’ preservation initiatives, support networking, facilitate professional development, and promote knowledge of conservation in the community at large. Our members receive free admission to events and join a supportive, dynamic group of knowledgeable fellow professionals. Join today and begin exploring the benefits of membership!

Thank-You to Our New Board Members!
In May, PACA members elected two new officers to the PACA board: Co-Chair Anisha Gupta and Treasurer Tessa Gadomski. Please join the rest of the board in thanking them for their service!

Next year we will be electing a co-chair, a membership and communications chair, a program chair, and a social media chair. Each of these roles is a two-year obligation, except for the social media chair, which will be for a one-year term this go-round. The PACA Board meets once a month, usually by phone. If you would like more information, or would like to nominate someone (including yourself) for one of the upcoming open positions, please contact the nominating committee! Board members must be PACA members in good standing.
