Preservation Creates Community in Louisville

June 23, 2025

On May 22, 2025, the National Trust joined with friends and partners for a celebration of preservation and the National Trust’s 75th anniversary in Louisville, Kentucky. The day included visits to Louisville’s Fifth Street Baptist Church, followed by a Leadership in Preservation panel discussion and fireside chat with National Trust President and CEO, Carol Quillen, at the Cathedral of the Assumption. The day was capped with a Community Showcase at Polar Terrace, courtesy of National Trust board member, Christy Brown.

This May, celebrate the historic sites, neighborhoods, and landmarks that tell the full American story—places that remind us of how far we've come and how far we still have to go.

Celebrate!
