John & Maureen Galvin/Historic Madison Inc. Scholarship

Historic Madison, Inc., founded in 1960, is one of Indiana’s oldest and most prestigious historic preservation organizations. John Galvin served as president from 1981 to 2010. Under his leadership, Historic Madison, Inc. through its many programs, supported the preservation and improvement of Madison’s historic district so that it attained status as a National Historic Landmark District, the highest designation a historic district can receive. Galvin also led a successful endowment campaign, oversaw the award-winning preservation of the Schroeder Saddletree Factory, preserved one of America’s earliest remaining African Methodist Episcopal church buildings, and added additional properties to the HMI portfolio of historic structures, including the home of Madison’s famous architect, Francis Costigan. The scholarship award honors Galvin’s community and preservation-related successes while recognizing Maureen Galvin’s support for and encouragement of these worthy accomplishments in the hopes of inspiring future generations of preservationists, architects, and historians to do likewise.
