Join us January 23 for the next session of Time & Place, Preservation Houston’s midday talk series exploring how preservation and history shape the places we share.
Every building has a story, and there are many tools available to help you discover yours. In this session, Preservation Services Director Emily Ardoin will introduce a selection of mostly free, online tools for researching the history of a home or other building in Houston. She’ll also share practical search tips and guidance on how to interpret what you find. Whether you’re curious about your own property, researching a neighborhood, or simply interested in local history, you’ll leave with a solid starting point for uncovering the stories built into Houston’s historic places.
The talk will begin at noon Friday, January 23, at PH Studio in the Preservation Houston office, 3907 Main Street. Registration is $10 for PH members and $15 for non-members; add $15 for a Picnic boxed lunch or bring your own. Water and iced tea will be provided.
This project has been funded in part by a grant from the National Trust Preservation Fund of the National Trust for Historic Preservation.
