Celebrating 37 years of preservation advocacy in Maine!
Our core belief: Maine's traditional buildings and landscapes provide tangible links to our past. They must remain as strong and contributing elements of our cultural legacy - now and for the future.
Our mission is to promote the preservation, protection and vitality of Maine's historic places and encourage quality design that contributes to the livability of our communities. You are the key to preserving Maine's heritage. Together, we make a positive and important difference in protecting our cultural legacy.
Thank you for your generous contribution Need preservation advice on your historic building? Check out our Resources and Links page for preservation topics, organizational contacts and professionals in various preservation trades. Visit the National Trust for Historic Preservation's new weatherization website for older and historic buildings. Visit www.HistoricHomeWorks.com, hosted by Maine preservation expert John Leeke, including technical advice and running forums on best practices for renovation and repair. Contact one of Maine Preservation's two Field Service Representatives, who offer free, grant-funded consulting with initial planning advice on preservation projects in Maine. The Field Reps can also allocate $500 seed grants to help a project get started with a professional assessment or to offset the cost of a critical restoration application. Ask a Field Rep to apply. For Western and Southern Maine, contact Christopher Closs at (207) 809-9103 or chris@mainepreservation.org. Chris is shared with Greater Portland Landmarks. For Eastern and Northern Maine, contact Rochelle Bohm at (207) 809-9102 or rochelle@mainepreservation.org.
