Ogden School City District is restoring and adding needed new space at historic Ogden High School in what will ultimately be a $70 million investment.  As is appropriate, the district will support upgrades that specifically impact the school's functionality.  However, part of the historic preservation piece is left to be raised by private funds, another $9 - $11 million.  OHS alumni and historic preservationists across the country are joining together to raise funds to specifically preserve the glorious auditorium and the magnificent exterior windows.

Last week, UHF staff took a behind-the-scenes tour of incredible rehab in progress.  Here are the photos for you to see the work up close.

We invite you to explore their website to learn more about our efforts to preserve one of the nation's most impressive art deco structures and how you can help.
