OHA’s Our Glorious Workplaces event showcases and honors how organizations create and deliver their products or services while emphasizing their historic impact upon the larger community. We collaborate with a new company each year and a celebration is held right at their place of business. Proceeds from the cocktail reception and elegant dinner support all of OHA’s endeavors and ensures its ability to continue to play a role in creating pride in our community.
This year, join the Onondaga Historical Association on Thursday, October 22, 2026, for Our Glorious Workplaces: Upstate Medical Arena at The Oncenter War Memorial. This special event commemorates the 75th anniversary of the War Memorial, reflecting on the important role the War Memorial has played in our region – from honoring local veterans to hosting generations of sporting events and world-class entertainment.
