Our Story

Preservation Maryland is Maryland’s oldest, largest and most effective preservation organization. As a 90+-year-old organization you might think we’ve slowed down a bit – but we’re still full of fight.

We’ve recently tackled some of our largest initiatives yet, leading to expanded funding, programming, staff, and goals. Although the organization’s core mission remains the same as when we started in 1931, our work has adapted, our strategies have diversified, and our approach has modernized. We remain at the forefront of the preservation movement, creatively working to preserve place, affect policy change, and grow the historic preservation workforce so our shared history can be enjoyed for untold generations to come.

This work is implemented by a dedicated staff of employees. Each team member oversees a different and equally compelling aspect of our mission.
