On Thursday, October 19, 2017, Preservation Maryland hosted its annual Six-to-Fix Benefit to support the award winning program. Now in its third year, the program has amassed a collection of over 18 distinct and unique projects – each with their own set of challenges and opportunities.
Since the program’s launch in 2015, Preservation Maryland has leveraged an unparalleled $5 of support for these threatened sites for every $1 the organization has spent on the program. That 5:1 ratio is one of the reasons the effort is extremely popular with Preservation Maryland donors who also helped to fill the newly transformed historic Parker Metal Building into the place to be for the Benefit.
Before the big announcement, Preservation Maryland elected five new board members and watched the premiere of a short video documentary showcasing the impact of the first two year’s of the Six-to-Fix program.
NEW MAJOR PROJECTS
The new class of Six-to-Fix projects represent the next step for the program and are one of the broadest, most diverse and inclusive collection of projects we have ever tackled. From documenting Maryland’s sites associated with Women’s Suffrage to taking a stand for our state parks’ cultural resources we are accepting big, bold and complex challenges.
