Applications Available For Historic Grants In Mercer County

Application forms and guidelines for Mercer County’s History Regrant program for 2018 are now available, county officials announced this week. Proposed projects to be funded through this round of grants must take place between Jan. 1 and Dec. 31, 2018. Deadline for submission is July 14, 2017.

These Regrants are available through a partnership between the New Jersey Historical Commission (NJHC) and Mercer County's Cultural and Heritage Commission, supported by the NJHC’s County History Partnership Program.

Eligible Mercer County-based nonprofit historic societies, history organizations, local government entities, schools, libraries and other Mercer County non-profits offering local historic programming and events are invited to apply for support.

Both General Operating (GOS) and Special Project (SP) applications from eligible not-for-profit organizations and historical sites will be considered.

Grant guidelines and application forms can be found on the Mercer County Cultural and Heritage Commission’s History page portion of the county website, under the “More Information” sidebar (lower right hand side of the page).
