The Historical Alexandria Foundation hosted its Spring Garden Party + Annual Meeting on June 11th. This year's event took place at the home of R. Latane Montague on Prince Street. Members and friends gathered to enjoy drinks and midday repast, while catching up with old and new neighbors and friends, and learning about the Foundation’s latest initiatives.

The year’s grant awards from the Historic Alexandria Foundation Preservation Fund were announced with recipients invited to describe their projects for the membership. Oval bronze Plaques are delivered to the owners of historic properties which had been judged to meet criterion of integrity and authenticity of their historic building. Preservation awards for the year were bestowed.
