The Preservation Awards, hosted annually by Santa Monica Conservancy, is a large gathering of community members, working professionals, public officials, and historians, recognizing exceptional efforts in local heritage conservation, celebrating the arts, history, and culture that define Santa Monica.

We anticipate an attendance of 150-200+, including residents and industry professionals in the following sectors: design, architecture, hospitality, history/academia, preservation, construction, engineering, government, and nonprofit.

Thus, placing a commercial ad or public tribute in the 2025 Preservation Awards program puts your organization, service, or business in direct exposure with an intentional community that values sustainability, storytelling, and craftsmanship.

Please note that the deadline to add a print ad/tribute has passed. All ads/tributes submitted after Nov. 1 will be included in the digital program, but not the print program.

Potential Impressions:

• 150-200+ Attendees at Preservation Awards
• 200-300+ Community Members at Public Preservation Awards Reception/Taste of Santa Monica
• 4100+ Community Members in Santa Monica Conservancy Newsletter

Why place an ad?

Being around like-minded people may lead to more organic connections and generate both short-term and long-term client relationships.
