May is National Preservation Month, and Coronado is joining communities nationwide in celebrating our unique heritage! We're fortunate to have so many meaningful historic places, and we'll be highlighting them throughout the month. Our celebrations include a City Council Proclamation, the presentation of plaques to recently designated historic homes, and the beloved Historic Home Tour on Mother's Day, May 11.
The celebrations will culminate in the annual Preservation Symposium on Thursday, May 15 from 5:30 p.m. - 7:30 p.m. The program will include a reception starting at 5:30 p.m. followed by the presentations from 6 - 7:30 p.m.
Join Coronado MainStreet, the Historical Association, and the City of Coronado for the Preservation Symposium sponsored by the Coronado Community Foundation as we champion preservation in our community.
