Ever wonder where to begin when starting a home reno project?  VHF offers Old School Workshops   to help you learn how to repair and restore older buildings. Heritage projects, from modest renos to large Heritage Revitalization Agreements require you to talk to City Hall. Since this can seem a daunting process, why not learn what you need to know before you approach the City's Planning Department? Our two experienced presenters, who will guide you through the process of zoning, permits and more, are Senior Heritage Planner, Marco D'Agostini, City of Vancouver and award-winning heritage architect, James Burton, Birmingham & Wood. You'll get tips and advice on how to get your project through city hall, and plenty of time for Q&A.

Wednesday, March 6th, 2013 from 6-9pm. $60 + tax. Vancouver City Hall, East Wing, Strathcona Room. A light dinner will be provided. This course is worth 4 core AIBC credits, and 2 credits toward VHF's  Old School Heritage Conservation certificate.
