Save Our Signs: Celebrate All-American History

What we are looking for:

• Photos of interpretive signs, exhibits, or text from areas administered by the National Park Service.

  • • For example, this includes: National Parks, National Historic Sites, National Monuments, National Memorials, National Battlefields, National Trails, National Lakeshores, and other public lands.

• Please make sure that your photo clearly shows the text and that the text is readable.

• Please do not upload photos with people in them. These photos will become part of a public photo collection, so we want to protect everyone’s privacy.  If you accidentally submit a photo with people in it, we will likely exclude it from the public photo collection.

• The Save Our Signs project reserves the right to exclude any submitted images in the public photo collection that may violate privacy or otherwise be out of scope or inappropriate for this project.

Anyone can submit a photo of a sign or placard with the submission form. This is a community project with user-submitted information. We cannot guarantee that entries are accurate or complete, but we will do our best to edit entries for clarity.  

We will make the photos collected by September 17 publicly available by October 13, 2025.  We will continue to accept submissions after September 17. Check out our Project Updates page for more info.
