2014 ANNUAL MEETING:

March 19 – 22, 2014Hyatt Regency SavannahSavannah, Georgia

Certain things about Savannah never change — it remainsone of America’s loveliest cities, organized around a grid of21 squares, where children play, couples wed and, in theevenings, lone saxophonists deliver a jazz soundtrack. Butthat doesn’t mean Savannah has nothing new to offer.Perhaps most notable is a budding art scene that includesthe high — a major expansion of the Telfair Museum — andthe low — a scene energized by students and instructors atthe booming Savannah College of Art and Design. Civicboosters are even trying to reposition the region as the“Creative Coast.” And then there is change of another kind:restoration. Before iron-clad protection of the historic districtwas established, Savannah lost 3 of its 24 squares todevelopers. Now one of the oldest, Ellis Square, longdominated by a parking lot, is being restored to itsantebellum glory.
