A Road Scholar program by Rebecca Hunter

What IS historic preservation? Why is it important to save old buildings? How can we identify buildings which should be preserved? In this slide presentation, Rebecca Hunter will examine the history of the preservation movement and suggest avenues on how one can become involved in local, state-, or nationwide preservation efforts. Learn why architectural salvage is a critical component of restoration and heritage.
