Associate Henry Opotowsky has joined the board of the Preservation Resource Center (PRC). The PRC is dedicated to the preservation of New Orleans’ unique and diverse neighborhoods. They offer an array of programs, classes, tours and workshops focused on preserving, renovating, maintaining and celebrating the city’s historic architecture.
PRC’s Board of Directors is a richly diverse group that draws from the banking, education, philanthropic, business, legal, civic, architectural, and real estate development sectors of the New Orleans community. Board members serve for three-year terms after being selected by the Nominating Committee and then elected by the membership. The Board considers the recommendations of its many committees at meetings held the third Wednesday of each month.
