Grants for Historical Preservation and Conservation

The National Park Service partnered with IMLS (Institute of Museum and Library Services), the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), and NEA (National Endowment for the Arts) to provide $12.6 million in Save America’s Treasures grants. The grants will go toward funding 41 projects in 23 states that aim to “support the preservation of nationally significant historic properties and collections throughout the country.” Project examples include conserving materials from a 17th-century Franciscan mission site in Florida, preserving early-20th-century rodeo photos in Colorado, and conserving a colonial-era family coach in New York.
