Our Heart Belongs to History
There is no question that preservationists put their heart into their work and communities. Inspired by the preservation movement, we encourage you to make an origami heart with our special edition phoenix origami paper.
Happy VALENTINE’S DAY
Here we offer a simple at-home project to create an origami heart just in time for Valentine’s Day—or any day. We want to see how you use your heartbombs this year! Be sure to tag or mention Preservation Maryland on social media @preservationMD on Facebook, @PreservationMaryland on Instagram , and @PreservationMD on Twitter.
