The Nevada Preservation Foundation is a private nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving and revitalizing historic buildings, communities, and places in Las Vegas and throughout Nevada. They work with various stakeholders, including property owners, residents, developers, and cultural heritage organizations, to retain and restore the built environment, fostering a sense of place and building an engaged community. Through educational events, programs, and volunteer opportunities, they aim to increase understanding and appreciation of Nevada's cultural legacy and the importance of preservation. Their advocacy efforts involve responding to threats, assisting with historic designation, and supporting stronger preservation policies and incentives.
In addition to their preservation services, the Nevada Preservation Foundation also offers heritage tourism events, such as Home History Las Vegas, partnering with other organizations to bring awareness to the significance of heritage tourism. Their Neighborhood Stabilization division works with communities, municipalities, and the private sector to develop urban planning and preservation initiatives, using preservation as a tool for revitalization across the state. As the only private nonprofit membership organization of its kind in Nevada, the Nevada Preservation Foundation is committed to being a comprehensive statewide preservation organization.
