The National Trust for Historic Preservation and HGTV will host the annual Restore America Gala.
Preservationists, Members of Congress and the Administration, as well as corporate and philanthropic leaders will gather for an elegant evening to salute the National Trust for Historic Preservation and HGTV and to honor companies, individuals and public officials who revitalize communities and help save America's diverse historic places.
The highlight of each year's event is the presentation of six Restore America Hero awards, which are conferred upon public officials, private citizens, and corporations whose energy, vision, and leadership have made significant contributions to the preservation of our historic and cultural legacy – the buildings, collections, documents, and works of art that tell America's story.

Mr. Richard Driehaus - Chicago, IL
