Heritage at Risk

Heritage Preservation is committed to saving our nation’s heritage for future generations. We need your help!

YOU can help us increase public awareness of the need to preserve our nation’s cultural heritage by submitting examples of objects and collections in need of conservation or preservation treatment or care.
Click here for examples of items in need.

We are compiling a comprehensive list of all types of objects and collections, including important documents, archives, photographs, works of art, sculpture, historic artifacts, natural science specimens, and historic structures that have local, regional, or national significance. This information will be useful to us in demonstrating the collective need to corporate executives, government officials, foundation officers, and other decision-makers.

Please help us by sending information on your examples today! Please include:

  • Object or collection name or type
  • Approximate date of work
  • Artist (if relevant)
  • Institution, street address, city, state
  • Brief description of work
  • Brief description of conservation needs
  • Contact name, address, phone
