The Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission is now accepting applications for two types of historic preservation grants: 

• Construction Grants support projects at historic, publicly accessible buildings, including preservation, restoration, or rehabilitation construction activities. Buildings must be listed in or eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places. 

• Planning Grants support planning and pre-development projects at historic resources that are listed in or eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places. Eligible projects include cultural resource surveys, National Register nominations, planning and project development assistance, and archaeological investigations. 

Townships that own or support a publicly accessible historic property are eligible to apply for both grant types through March 3, 2025, and a 50% match is required. For more information on these opportunities, visit pa.gov and search “historic preservation.” Questions can be directed to phmckeystonegrants@pa.gov.
