About

Since 1979, the Arizona Preservation Foundation has partnered with local communities, state agencies, and national organizations to promote and protect Arizona’s irreplaceable historic places. We co-sponsor the annual Preserve AZ Conference and the Governor’s Heritage Preservation Honor Awards to celebrate achievements and inspire action. Through our Historic Preservation Resource Guide, we provide practical information for homeowners, professionals, and advocates alike.

We champion sound public policy at the state and federal levels — advancing initiatives such as the Heritage Fund, Historic Tax Credits, and programs that connect preservation with affordable housing. We work to safeguard endangered historic sites, raise awareness through our website, blog, book club, and webinars, and keep the public informed with timely Preservation Alerts when properties are at risk. Above all, we are committed to being a strong, consistent voice for preserving Arizona’s rich heritage for generations to come.
