Important Minnesota stories will be preserved and shared thanks to a new round of Minnesota Historical and Cultural Heritage Grants awarded by the Minnesota Historical Society with funds from the Legacy Amendment’s Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund. Fifty-nine new grants have been awarded in 29 counties across the state (see list below).
Demand remains high for MHCH grants as the second and final year of this biennium begins. Over the past year, the Society received 481 applications requesting approximately $10.5 million and awarded 253 for approximately $5 million.
“We’ve reached 71 of 87 counties at the halfway point of this biennium compared to 56 of 87 in the last biennium,” said David Grabitske, manager of Outreach Services for the Minnesota Historical Society. “A truly diverse number of eligible applicants have demonstrated compelling reasons to preserve the state’s history, one of our most valuable non-renewable resources.”
The remaining Minnesota Historical and Cultural Heritage Grants deadlines for fiscal year 2013, which began July 1, 2012, are:
DEADLINES FOR SMALL GRANTS, WHICH ARE UP TO $7,000:
August 17, 2012

DEADLINES FOR MID AND LARGE SIZE GRANTS, WHICH ARE $7,001 AND HIGHER:

The Grants Manual is available at legacy.mnhs.org/grants
Applications are accepted only through the Society’s grants portal at grants.mnhs.org
Minnesota Historical and Cultural Heritage Grants are made possible by the Clean Water, Land and Legacy Amendment’s Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund by the vote of Minnesotans on Nov. 4, 2008. The amendment supports efforts to preserve Minnesota’s land, water and legacy, including state history and cultural heritage.
