Drawing History

Teresa Boegler ’16 and Sara Sanders ’13  received honorable mentions for the 2015 Leicester B. Holland Prize from the National Park Service’s Heritage Documentation Program. Boegler was honored for her drawing of the St. James House, a Washington Heritage Museums site in Fredericksburg and one of the city’s few remaining 18th-century frame houses.

Sanders, a recent graduate of the joint historic preservation master’s degree program at Clemson University and the College of Charleston, based her submission on the 18th-century Pon Pon Chapel in the Jacksonboro, South Carolina, area.

The Holland Prize recognizes the best single-sheet measured drawing of a historic site, structure, or landscape prepared to specific industry standards. The annual national competition is open to students and professionals. Boegler’s and Sanders’ works will be published in Preservation Architect, the online newsletter of the Historic Resources Committee of the American Institute of Architects. Each received a $500 prize.
