NYSCA/GHHN Grants

The 2025 Guidelines for the Conservation Treatment Grant will be updated soon - however, they will not change significantly from the 2024 Guidelines. For your planning purposes, please refer to the 2024 Guidelines.

​The 2025 Guidelines for the Preservation Supplies and Site Assessment Grants are now available.

The NYSCA/GHHN Conservation Grant Program is made possible with funds from the New York State Council on the Arts, with the support of The Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature. Additional funding from the Robert David Lion Gardiner Foundation supports projects from Long Island and New York City. This statewide program now offers three opportunities for collecting institutions in New York State.
