Partners in Preservation Committee

What are the Partners in Preservation Awards?

Each year, the Oakland Heritage Alliance (OHA) honors individuals, organizations, projects, and programs whose work demonstrates a commitment to excellence in historic preservation. In doing so, we hope to inspire others to take action to preserve, protect, and promote Oakland’s historic, natural, and cultural resources.

All winners are honored during an annual Awards Ceremony and Reception. The date, time, and location of the event will be announced at a later time.
