Title A name given to the resource 2024 Awardees Description An account of the resource The Greater Hudson Heritage Network (GHHN) and the New York State Council on the Arts (NYSCA) are awarding $178,873 in conservation treatment grants to 30 organizations in 23 New York counties. Conservation Treatment Grants fund professional conservation to stabilize and preserve historical objects and works of art in New York museums, history centers, and cultural organizations. The Robert David Lion Gardiner Foundation generously provided 50% of the funding for conservation treatment projects in Nassau & Suffolk counties and New York City. Over the past year, the NYSCA/GHHN Conservation Treatment Grants guidelines were revised to make funding more accessible for projects that reflect the spectrum of communities and cultures across New York State. Supported conservation projects include "Memory Object" (1973), a large, abstract sculpture by LGBTQIA gay rights activist and New York artist Stuart Edelson (1944–1995); a Cayuga County Political Equality Club banner (C.1915); a 16th-century Spanish black silk velvet dalmatic (an ecclesiastical vestment); and a large bronze “Laughing Buddha” sculpture, carved wooden pedestal, and cushion. A full list of recipients can be found below. “The field of conservation is continually changing,” noted Greater Hudson Heritage Network Executive Director Priscilla Brendler. “It requires practitioners who have demonstrated high levels of proficiency and advanced knowledge, adherence to the ethics and standards of the American Institute of Conservation (AIC), and are recognized for their expertise in the museum field. We are pleased these awards will involve 13 individual conservators and 6 conservation labs - all members of the AIC.” NYSCA Executive Director Erika Mallin said, "“Through each of these compelling objects, New Yorkers can learn more about our rich creative heritage. NYSCA is proud to support these important conservation projects and congratulates all the grantees for this vital work. Your commitment to art and culture will continue to serve and enrich New York State for generations to come." This year, 41 grant applications were received at GHHN from institutions in 28 counties in New York State, requesting an aggregate of $247,048 in grant support. In all, requests were made for the treatment of 54 objects, of which 30 organizational awards totaling $178,873 were recommended by a peer panel of conservators, curators, and museum professionals. Of the 30 organizations that received funding, all received full funding, a first for this program. Nine institutions applied to this program for the first time this year, and five of those organizations received funding. 2024 Conservation Treatment Grant awards range from $1,840 to the maximum amount of $7,500.

Title A name given to the resource 2024 Awardees Description An account of the resource The Greater Hudson Heritage Network (GHHN) and the New York State Council on the Arts (NYSCA) are awarding $178,873 in conservation treatment grants to 30 organizations in 23 New York counties. Conservation Treatment Grants fund professional conservation to stabilize and preserve historical objects and works of art in New York museums, history centers, and cultural organizations. The Robert David Lion Gardiner Foundation generously provided 50% of the funding for conservation treatment projects in Nassau & Suffolk counties and New York City. Over the past year, the NYSCA/GHHN Conservation Treatment Grants guidelines were revised to make funding more accessible for projects that reflect the spectrum of communities and cultures across New York State. Supported conservation projects include "Memory Object" (1973), a large, abstract sculpture by LGBTQIA gay rights activist and New York artist Stuart Edelson (1944–1995); a Cayuga County Political Equality Club banner (C.1915); a 16th-century Spanish black silk velvet dalmatic (an ecclesiastical vestment); and a large bronze “Laughing Buddha” sculpture, carved wooden pedestal, and cushion. A full list of recipients can be found below. “The field of conservation is continually changing,” noted Greater Hudson Heritage Network Executive Director Priscilla Brendler. “It requires practitioners who have demonstrated high levels of proficiency and advanced knowledge, adherence to the ethics and standards of the American Institute of Conservation (AIC), and are recognized for their expertise in the museum field. We are pleased these awards will involve 13 individual conservators and 6 conservation labs - all members of the AIC.” NYSCA Executive Director Erika Mallin said, "“Through each of these compelling objects, New Yorkers can learn more about our rich creative heritage. NYSCA is proud to support these important conservation projects and congratulates all the grantees for this vital work. Your commitment to art and culture will continue to serve and enrich New York State for generations to come." This year, 41 grant applications were received at GHHN from institutions in 28 counties in New York State, requesting an aggregate of $247,048 in grant support. In all, requests were made for the treatment of 54 objects, of which 30 organizational awards totaling $178,873 were recommended by a peer panel of conservators, curators, and museum professionals. Of the 30 organizations that received funding, all received full funding, a first for this program. Nine institutions applied to this program for the first time this year, and five of those organizations received funding. 2024 Conservation Treatment Grant awards range from $1,840 to the maximum amount of $7,500.
