Preservation Month
ANNUAL PRESERVATION AWARDS
In recognition of the shared local commitment to preserve Madison's historic resources, the Historic Preservation Commission presents annual awards at the Ice Cream Social.
Preservation Partner Awards are all about action, perhaps the "Do as I Do" awards. Awards are distributed to recognize individuals, families, and/or organizations which exemplify the ideals of stewardship, leadership, and initiative. Past recipients.
Preservation Excellence Awards are about recognition for a project well done. Awards are distributed to businesses, property owners, contractors, and/or organizations for projects which are not just passing grades but true grade "A"s.
