Preservation Maryland

As a part of our ongoing work in LGBTQ history, Preservation Maryland is excited to announce a week of five upcoming listening sessions across the state to help inform a forthcoming context study on LGBTQ history across the state.

As part of statewide project and organizational focus, Preservation Maryland is pleased to offer a quick research reference guide for conducting LGBTQ history at colleges, universities, and other small archives.

Late in December 2018, Preservation Maryland was awarded a substantial research grant from the Maryland Historical Trust in the Department of Planning to begin a first-of-its-kind in Maryland project to research historic places across the state important to LGBTQ history.

This fall, Preservation Maryland announced LGBTQ history and heritage as a new initiative of our proactive Six-to-Fix program and kicked-off the statewide project with a lecture on November 29, 2018 by LGBTQ history and preservation expert Dr. Susan Ferentinos.
