Please join us at our Cold Spring Harbor Gallery for our 2026 Historic Preservation Workshop. This year’s program explores how historic homes on Long Island can be successfully marketed, sold, and thoughtfully renovated and stewarded.
We are delighted to welcome a panel of experts in historic preservation, real estate, and interior design. Together, they will discuss how sensitive design and renovation can make older homes comfortable and functional for modern life—while preserving the character that makes them unique.

Date and Time: Tuesday, May 12, 2026, 10:00 AM–2:00 PM Location: Preservation Long Island Exhibition Gallery, 161 Main Street, Cold Spring Harbor Free parking is available in the municipal lot on the opposite side of Main Street. General Admission: $20 suggested donation Optional Box Lunch: $12
The conversation will also explore the realities of selling and renovating older homes—from traditional architectural styles to mid-century and modern properties, which have posed particular challenges in the regional real estate market. Panelists will also discuss local residential historic districts and offer guidance on understanding tax credits and other incentives available to owners of historic properties.
Whether you are a real estate professional, decorator, homeowner, prospective buyer, member of a local historical society, or resident of a historic district, we hope you will join us.
