The Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission (PHMC) encourages non-profit organizations and local governments to apply for historic preservation project grants before the January 31 deadline.
Historic Preservation Grants are available to support projects in the categories of Community Preservation and Archaeology. Community Preservation activities include cultural resource surveys, national register and historic district nominations, municipal planning and development assistance. Archaeology projects include the development of regional site sensitivity models, preparation of regional and/or temporal syntheses, research and artifact analysis, problem-oriented excavation projects. The grants are administered on a competitive basis, and the awards are made annually based on a peer review process.
Two levels of funding are available. Grant awards below $10,000 do not require matching local funds. If state funding is between $10,001 and $25,000, an equal local match is required. Grants are awarded through a competitive selection process and are contingent on availability of funds.
Grant applicants are required to use the web-based electronic application process, eGrant. For guidelines and instructions, visit www.phmc.state.pa.us and select "Grants and Funding" on the top navigation bar. Additional information is available by contacting Karen Arnold at the Bureau for Historic Preservation by e-mail at kaarnold@state.pa.us or by calling 717-783-9927.
A nonprofit 501(c)3 organization, the RCWE’s mission is to connect people with jobs through collaborative workforce development efforts and strong partnerships with economic development, business, education, and government sectors in the Northwest Pennsylvania region.
