Historic Wilmington Foundation Preservation Awards Ceremony

Who are the people behind the scaffolding and the freshly painted facades? Each year, the Historic Wilmington Foundation honors the visionaries enacting our mission through exemplary efforts in adaptive reuse, rehabilitation, and restoration. Join us at the Historic Courthouse Building for the 2026 Preservation Awards Ceremony. This free event is open to the public and serves as a tribute to those who ensure our city's living past remains a meaningful and vibrant part of our future. If you are passionate about local history and the soul of our community, we invite you to help us celebrate our 2026 winners!
