ABOUT PAST IS PROLOGUEHistoric Preservation is not about freezing historic sites and our built heritage in time, but working with residents and stakeholders to sensitively manage the change necessary to ensure our communities flourish. This year, Architecture Sarasota is celebrating National Historic Preservation Month by offering a range of activities under the theme of "Past is Prologue," emphasizing the role of preservation in safeguarding historic places while addressing current and future needs. Throughout May 2025, the organization is hosting lectures, open studios of local firms, excursions, and a Historic Preservation 101 course led by President Marty Hylton. The month concludes with an on-line auction, celebration, and an update on the organization's various initiatives including the Restoring a Sense of Place Disaster Recovery and Preserving the Manufactured Housing Communities of Sarasota County, among others.
