A public workshop regarding the strategic plan update for the Oil Region National Heritage Area will be held from 9 a.m. to noon on Tuesday, Oct. 27, at the Free Methodist Church of Oil City Fellowship Hall, 206 Wilson Ave.
“The purpose of the workshop is to review the results of the public survey and to work in breakout groups to further discuss the organization and management of the Oil Region National Heritage Area, interpretation and preservation within the region, and tourism development,” said Jennifer Burden, Heritage program manager.
The Oil Region National Heritage Area is composed of all of Venango County, and Titusville, Hydetown and Oil Creek Township in Crawford County.
A concept plan synthesizing the public input and findings of the consultants producing the strategic plan will be presented during a virtual public meeting via Zoom at 5 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 29.
Results of the workshop will be incorporated into the final strategic plan report, which will be used to guide the projects and programming for the next several years.
To register for the workshop or for more information, call (814) 677-3152 or send an email to jburden@oilregion.org.
