Join us in a significant celebration of heritage and community achievement! In partnership with Preservation Idaho, the Boise City Department of Arts & History, and the dedication of our steering committee and volunteers, we're excited to invite you to the ribbon-cutting ceremony of the River Street Neighborhood Grant Project.

This event marks a pivotal moment, as we reflect on the completed initiatives and look forward to the collective hopes for the future in the historic River Street Neighborhood. During the ceremony, representatives from Preservation Idaho and its partnering organizations will discuss the impact of these projects and share their visions for the area's future.

Project Highlights:

• Preservation Idaho secured a $25,000 grant from the National Trust for Historic Preservation, supported by the National Endowment for the Humanities.

• Creation of a free, self-guided walking tour highlighting the storied past of the River Street Historic Neighborhood.

• Installation of informative signage around the neighborhood, enhancing visitor experience and resident engagement.

The success of this project has also been recognized in an article published by Preservation Magazine. To read more about the project's impact, visit: Preservation Magazine Article.
