From Repairing Your Historic Windows

So you have a historic building – town hall, church, school, home – and you want to preserve it. Where do you begin? How do you make sure your project is successful over the long haul? Need alternative use ideas or funding? We have developed these resource guides to help you through the process! 

Basic preservation education is a core part of our organization's mission, and it is needed on a constant basis. We hope that providing these resources, articles, links, and videos, will help to grow an understanding and appreciation for historic preservation and its benefits, uses, and roles within our communities. We will add more information as trends and issues emerge in the field. We welcome your feedback on what educational resources or topics are needed most.
