History Happy Hour: Beyond the White House: Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, New York Preservationist

Most Americans know of Jacqueline Kennedy’s preservation work in Washington, D.C., but less well-known is her contribution to preservation in New York City. Focusing on her role in such key preservation dramas as the saving of Grand Central Terminal, the preservation of St. Bartholomew’s Church, and the defense of New York’s landmarks law, the conversation will highlight the important role she played and her lasting preservation legacy in New York. It will also shed light on her strategic ability to increase public awareness around historic preservation efforts in New York City. Come join us on August 1 for this special episode, filmed live at Diageo Headquarters in New York City! The speaker will feature Anthony C. Wood, Founder and Chair Emeritus of New York Preservation Archive Project!

As of February 1st, we are partnering with Diageo North America, who will bring new and innovative cocktails to life during our mixology sessions.
