Celebration of Preservation 2020
Please join New Haven Preservation Trust for our online Celebration of Preservation 2020, an opportunity to lift up how people and places connect in our City.
Be inspired by the Awards Winners of 2020. Hear how individuals have committed time, energy, resources, and creativity to ensure the past remains relevant. See how historic buildings have been restored and adapted so that they can contribute again to today’s community.
Be challenged by a talk by Elizabeth Holt, Director of Preservation Services at the Trust, as she calls on us to recognize that preservation is not set in stone — it must answer the needs and concerns of each generation in turn.
Be generous in participating in the Trust’s renowned Silent Auction, online this year for the first time. With its focus on our City, the auction is an enjoyable way for you to help the Trust while also getting something in return!
Be engaged by attending the Trust’s Annual Meeting — hear about recent activities, from matching grants for small restoration projects to talks accompanied by beer and pizza; learn about our financial viability; and join us in thanking past board members and electing new members.
We look forward to welcoming you to an invigorating gathering to mark how Preservation can happen in New Haven.
