Synopsis

For collections, the program supports museums, libraries, archives, and all other collecting institutions in addressing conservation needs of nationally significant collections including physical conservation, curation, care, and collections management.

The grant program is administered by the National Park Service (NPS) in partnership with the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA), the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), and the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS).There are separate opportunities for preservation and collections projects. The collections opportunity can be found under opportunity number P25AS00508. The preservation opportunity can be found under opportunity Number P25AS00469.
