Have you ever wondered who built your home, who lived there before you, or whether it could qualify for historic designation?

Join two historians from the La Mesa History Center for an engaging presentation on the realities, myths and benefits of historic preservation. You'll leave with practical tips, local resources, and a new appreciation for the story your home may have to tell.

Whether you're simply curious or ready to begin researching, this is a great place to start.

Admission is free.
