About Alliance of National Heritage Areas Spring Meeting 2022

From Monday, April 18 through Friday, April 22, the Mississippi Delta National Heritage Area (MS Delta NHA) hosted the Alliance of National Heritage Areas (ANHA) Spring 2022 Meeting. Membership meetings for 2020 and 2021 were postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Nearly 100 MS Delta NHA hosts and attendees from NHAs, the National Park Service (NPS), and other national partners gathered to discuss the power of storytelling, education, community engagement, and equitable economic development.

Afterwards Sara Capen (ANHA Chair and Executive Director of Niagara Falls NHA) shared this heartfelt reflection: “We experienced a resiliency of human spirit in the face of unimaginable cruelty that was unwavering and expressed in a commitment to storytelling, authentic history, music, cuisine and connection.”
