​​ As suburban sprawl and development make more and more places look the same, it becomes even more important for communities like Kanab to keep our identity intact by protecting our historic resources.
Kanab’s historic buildings and sites tell the story of Kanab, both of what it is and how it came to be.
The Kanab City Heritage and Historic Preservation Board is dedicated to making sure that history is preserved for future generations.

Mace Glazier - Board Chairperson

Joyce Bush’s great grandfathers on her father’s side came to Kanab between 1873 and 1875. Her mother’s grandfather came to Kanab in 1880. Growing up here, she has lots of good memories about many of the families who lived in the homes listed on the Kanab Historic Properties listing. She is grateful for the opportunity she has to serve on the Kanab City Heritage and Historic Preservation Board.

​
Members of the Board advise city officials on matters regarding City history and historic preservation. They will also advise owners of historic properties on ways they can preserve/restore their historic structures and by nominating them to the National Registry of Historic Places and the Kanab Registry of historic sites.
The Board also organizes fun activities like walking tours and heritage programs that promote local history. Please check our calendar for a list of upcoming events or meeting adjustments.
The Board meets at the Kanab City Office (26 N 100 E, Kanab, UT) at 5:30PM on the first Monday (excluding holidays) of every month.
