Don’t wait for the bulldozer to come to your neighborhood! Come to the Los Angeles Conservancy’s public workshop, LandmarkTHIS!, on April 8 to learn how to protect important historic and architecturally significant sites in your community by designating them as City landmarks.

You will be provided with the information you need to help preserve important buildings by nominating them for designation as city Historic-Cultural Monuments. We can’t wait until the wrecking crew is at the front door before trying to stop a demolition – we need to be proactive by recognizing and designating sites that are important to our communities.

LandmarkTHIS! participants will learn how to:

  • Identify potential historic resources
  • Conduct historical research
  • Write effective nominations
  • Take a nomination through the political process
  • You can become part of a new wave of civic activists helping protect the buildings and sites that shape our lives and tell the city’s story. Please join the Los Angeles Conservancy for LandmarkTHIS!

    COST: $10 - general public; $5 - LA Conservancy members
    Includes workshop materials and light refreshments
