Preservation Month 2016
May is Preservation Month, and this year we're celebrating with three words that say it all: This. Place. Matters.
Everyone has places that are important to them. Places they care about. Places that matter. This Place Matters is a national campaign initiated by the National Trust that encourages people to celebrate the places that are meaningful to them and to their communities.
This campaign isn't just about photography. It's about telling the stories of the places we can't live without. Through This Place Matters, we hope to encourage and inspire an ongoing dialogue about the importance of place and preservation in all of our lives.
