Now in its 10th year, the DeMuro Awards promote historic preservation and reuse in Oregon by spotlighting and celebrating outstanding rehabilitation projects, and sharing the lessons learned from those case studies.  The DeMuro Award honors the legacy of our friend and Board member, Art DeMuro, whose career embodied vision, persistence, creativity, excellence, and sound economics.

The purpose of the DeMuro award is to:

  • Inspire more historic preservation in Oregon
  • Recognize significant leaders in the field
  • Promote excellence in the practice of historic preservation
  • Build partnerships between Oregon's preservation professional and advocacy communities
