Preservation Month Poster 2008

May is Historic Preservation Month

Over the past several decades, Winston-Salem/Forsyth County has emerged as a national leader in preservation efforts, guiding the way to making historic preservation an integral part of our society. Preservation is a dynamic tool that helps maintain an area's vitality while fostering community pride and creating a sense of place.

May has been designated as Historic Preservation month, both here and at the national level. During this month, we have the opportunity to acknowledge and commemorate the efforts of countless individuals and organizations that have helped preserve the resources that make our cities, towns, and countrysides so special. This is a time for everyone to celebrate Forsyth County's rich and diverse heritage, while recognizing our collection of irreplaceable resources both in the built and natural environments.

Although Historic Preservation month is in May, please remember that you don't have to wait until May to get involved. There are eleven other months during the year that Historic Preservation needs all of our attention.

Below are the Preservation Month Posters from 2005-2007.
