The Do’s and Don’ts of Old House Windows
Window size and configuration has evolved over centuries and tell a lot about the age and history of a house. Windows are character defining features for historic houses. But when windows age, homeowners are often faced with a decision of whether to repair or replace. This lecture explores what you should know about repairing windows and what to consider in seeking replacements.
Lecturers:
Dorothy P Guzzo, formerly the Executive Director of the NJ Historic Trust and currently serving as the Vice President of Saving Historic Moorestown
Susan Reel Panish, is an Architect living in Moorestown, whose career has included extensive experience in the window replacement industry.

Origins of the Historic Preservation Movement
May is National Historic Preservation month. In recognition, come learn how we as a nation and as a state began to recognize, preserve, and appreciate our irreplaceable historic landmarks. Some think the 1966 passage of the National Historic Preservation Act is the beginning, but preserving historic places actually started in the 19th century. Dorothy Guzzo, lifelong preservationist, and Vice President of Saving Historic Moorestown will share the evolution of the historic preservation movement and highlight some of New Jersey’s more interesting achievements.

“From the singular mind of Shaina Taub, this epic new musical boldly explores the victories and failures of a struggle for equality that’s far from over. It’s 1913 and the women’s movement is heating up in America, anchored by the suffragists — “Suffs,” as they call themselves — and their relentless pursuit of the right to vote. Reaching across and against generational, racial, and class divides, these brilliant, flawed women entertain and inspire us with the story of their hard-won victory in an ongoing fight. So much has changed since the passing of the Nineteenth Amendment over a century ago, and yet we’re reminded sometimes we need to look back, in order to march fearlessly into the future.” [Playbill.com]
