The National Preservation Awards are presented annually at the PastForward conference. According to the National Trust for Historic Preservation, the awards are bestowed upon “distinguished individuals, nonprofit organizations, public agencies, and corporations whose skill and determination have given new meaning to their communities through preservation of our architectural and cultural heritage.” Efforts include citizen attempts to “save and maintain important landmarks, companies and craftsmen whose work restores the richness of the past; the vision of public officials who support preservation projects and legislation in their communities; and educators and journalists who help Americans understand the value of preservation.”
The nomination deadline is February 24, 2023. Nominators, award recipients will be notified in July 2023, and the award ceremony will take place at PastForward 2023 in Washington, D.C., from November 8 – 20, 2023.
