2020 JWHA 48th Annual Conference

The 2020 JWHA conference will be held September 17-20 in St. George, Utah, located in the beautiful southwest corner of Utah where desert rock meets alpine mountains.  Zion National Park just minutes east features picturesque and inspiring adventures. Learn more about this year’s conference.

50th Anniversary Theme Contest

In 2022 JWHA will celebrate 50 years of excellent restoration history scholarship.  To kick off the celebration, we are asking our members to submit 50th anniversary theme ideas for consideration.  Take a trip down memory lane, compile those memories and submit a theme you believe captures our first 50 years.  A prize will be awarded for the winning submission.  Submit your suggestions to jwha@jwha.info by December 31, 2019.
