Q: What is the Pullman National Monument?

Q: What is the Pullman National Monument Preservation Society?

The mission of the PNMPS is to encourage preservation and authentic restoration of the historic designed landscape of the model Town of Pullman (1880-1907) through legal advocacy and public outreach so that the legislated purposes of the Pullman National Monument are fulfilled for the benefit of present and future generations.

Our organization has been active since October 2015, and was formally organized in June 2016. We held our first public event at the 43rd Annual Pullman House Tour on October 8-9, 2016.

The Pullman National Monument Preservation Society of Pullman, Inc. was incorporated as an Illinois Not For Profit Corporation on November 16, 2016 and received its 501(c)(3) approval from the Internal Revenue Service on January 20, 2017. Our registration under both the Charitable Trust and the Solicitation for Charity Acts was approved by the Office of the Illinois Attorney General on April 14, 2017 (CO# 01072335).
