Inclusive as they may be, established preservation organizations may not offer workshops and events that interest young preservationists – or – organizations may face funding or personnel limitations that do not allow them to be as active as they would like to be. Forward thinking organizations in many cities have started to support local preservation activism by hosting Young Preservationists groups. Other groups have started organically from existing grassroots networks and a definitive need for preservation action.
While HISTPRES may be the online community for Young Preservationists, what are your local groups that host and support preservation in your communities?
Here are some that we know about:
Young Preservationists Association of Pittsburgh
Buffalo’s Young Preservationists
Cincinnati Young Preservationists
Young Preservationists Group @ Historic Seattle
HeritageYP @ San Francisco Architectural History
Young Preservation Professionals of Charleston
Perry’s Young Professionals + Preservationists, NY
