A big thank you to the clergy, lay leaders, and historians who helped host our Virtual Sacred Sites Open House Tour. Thanks also to the 300 of you who registered. Many of you have shared your appreciation for this unique opportunity to learn about multiple houses of worship from throughout the city and state.

We sponsor Sacred Sites Open House so more people will understand why our Sacred Sites grants are a signature program of the Landmarks Conservancy. We are proud to be the only statewide program of its kind offering financial and technical help to historic religious institutions. This work is now more important than ever as we help New York get back on her feet, so we appreciate your interest and support.
With best wishes,
Peg Breen
