About Us

Preservation Mirage began as an informal group of midcentury homeowners that met to exchange ideas and information about owning and preserving midcentury architecture in Rancho Mirage, California. As the number of participants increased, so did the group's goals. In late 2017, a board of directors was elected, and the preservation group became a registered nonprofit.

Preservation Mirage celebrates the architectural history of Rancho Mirage by promoting its protection and appreciation. We do this by:

- Advocating for the protection of significant architecture while providing a path for those seeking historic designations.
- Raising awareness of the city's historic architecture by offering educational opportunities that enhance its appreciation.
