2017Preservation Annual Report A critical component of our vision to increase stewardship of historic places in Utah is growing appreciation for great architecture, local economy, and part- nership. Nothing is easy about this extraordinary time, and this is the time that Preservation Utah is needed.

Milestones are in the past and we are forging a new future as Preservation Utah, with new programs and leadership. Despite the constant attacks on preservation policies, incentives, and directly on historic sites, your support, passion, and energy have backed this movement to strengthen.

Through support from you – our members and donors – we know preserva- tion better than anyone and are working through complex issues, with difficult Our Mission property owners, and layers of bureaucracy to find creative solutions that save historic places. Unlike any other organization, we open access to see historic Kirk Huffaker, Executive Director Keep the past alive, places through our tours and special events. Preservation Utah tells the stories not only for preservation, of the people behind the places and projects. but to inspire and provoke As I often state, the Preservation Utah ‘museum’ is all around us, every day. We don’t own the museum a more creative present or its objects, but we bring important interpretation and understanding to these museum ‘exhibits.’ For and sustainable future. a successful museum without walls, stewardship is a shared responsibility. So we are here to support those leaders in Utah community who take on this great responsibility with programs, advocacy, technical assistance, and financial resources.

All of this takes passion, dedication, and endless energy and you bring those to us. Thank you.
