Award-Winning Projects!!

Two PHMC projects were among the 59 recipients of Leadership in History Awards from the American Association for State and Local History (AASLH), recently announced by the organization.




“Soldiers to Governors: Pennsylvania’s Civil War Veterans Who Became State Leaders,” a publication written, designed, and published by PHMC staff, and “William Penn: Seed of a Nation,” the visitor orientation exhibit at Pennsbury Manor that was based on years of research by staff and consulting scholars, were recognized for achievement in the preservation and interpretation of state and local history.




Congratulations to all the folks involved with these projects on this national recognition.

Four other Leadership in History award recipients are from Pennsylvania: Jefferson County History Center, Brookville; Wharton Esherick Museum, Paoli; Fairmount Park Art Association, Philadelphia; and the City of Philadelphia Department of Records.
