Kick off Preservation Month with an open house at the historic Story Mansion! Learn about adaptive re-use and how Bozeman’s historic buildings are being given new life.

šŸ”— Find the full list of sites, map, and schedule at: www.betterbozemancoalition.org/events

As part of National Historic Preservation Month, the Bozeman Historic Preservation Advisory Board, Friends of Story Mansion and the Better Bozeman Coalition invite you to experience adaptive re-use in action.

Adaptive re-use is the process of adapting an existing building, sometimes at or close to its end of life, for a new purpose or use. This process can provide environmental, economic, and social benefits for building owners and communities. Come learn more about this process and see some of the amazing examples in Bozeman.

Join us May 2 from 5:30-7:30pm at the Story Mansion or May 3 from 10am-3pm at five Bozeman locations. Visit betterbozemancoalition.org events for more information.
