Preservation Month in Utah |
Preservation Month in Utah |
There’s no denying the vital role preservation plays in protecting Utah’s historic spaces while meeting the needs of our communities today and for generations to come. This May, for Preservation Month, we’re celebrating the power of place—and the countless ways, big and small, that preservation makes a difference across our state. From the heart of Salt Lake City to the rural landscapes all over Utah, preservation strengthens our communities, breathes new life into historic neighborhoods, and ensures that the stories of our past continue to shape our future. This work supports a more sustainable planet, fosters deeper connections, and builds a more just and vibrant society. Preservation Month is your chance to highlight why this work matters. It’s an opportunity to share the impact we’re making together—how the places we protect spark joy, inspire wonder, and connect us all through Utah's deep and diverse history. |

As the first statewide historic preservation organization in the western United States, we keep the past alive, not only for preservation, but to inspire and provoke a more creative present and sustainable future. Our efforts are made possible by the kind contributions of individual donors, sponsors, and foundations. Visit us online or at Memorial House, Memory Grove Park, in Salt Lake City. |
