Saving Americana

Saving Americana

Is history worth saving?  The answer from every sector of America is a resounding “YES!” The remnants of the past hold incredible value for us in the present. But resurrecting faded legacies takes dedication, time, and effort.

Across our great country ordinary people are going to extraordinary lengths to save our history. We are joining this silent army over the miles with our cameras; meeting and talking to volunteers, professionals, craftsmen, engineers, artists, musicians and thousands of others who share our love of America.

This is your invitation to join us on our trek to find people “Saving Americana.”

Big Stories Of Americana Is The Full-Length Treatment Of Programs We’ve Spent Years Developing On Many Topics.

“History Heroes” are profiles of people young and old we meet along the way sharing their love of the past.

Everywhere we go there is the “Music of Americana”. A soundtrack of local music and song superseding the stories and pictures.

In “Small Town Americana”, we visit off-the-interstate places that seem unchanged.
