  • Preservation Oklahoma NEWS
    Preservation Oklahoma January 2017 NEWS Volume XXIII, Issue 2 The joint publication of the State Historic Preservation Office and Preservation Oklahoma, Inc. PRESERVATION50 EXHIBIT AVAILABLE FOR DISPLAY On October 15, 1966, President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the National Historic Preservation Act (the Act) into law. It and its amendments established the structure and mechanisms for treatment of the Nation’s archeological and historic properties, including creation of the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), authorization of the Historic Preservation Fund (HPF), and provision for State Historic Preservation Offices (SHPO). The Oklahoma Historical Society, through its SHPO and partner agencies and organizations, is participating in Preservation50, the national celebration of the Act’s 50th anniversary this year. Part of this celebration includes a traveling exhibit that highlights the Act’s impact on Oklahoma. Preservation Oklahoma is pleased to announce that this exhibit is now available to local communities! It features photos of buildings and structures listed on the NRHP and provides information on why the Act is important to preserving Oklahoma’s historic resources. The exhibit consists of five retractable banners that can be easily assembled and displayed. The exhibit is free of charge thanks to a generous grant from the State Historic Preservation Office. The exhibit will be delivered, set up, and picked up—all you have to provide is the space! A presentation on the Act is also available and can be scheduled to coincide with the opening of the exhibit. We suggest the exhibit be scheduled for a two- week presentation. For more information, please contact David Pettyjohn at 405.525.5325 or e-mail david@ preservationok.org.
