Description
An account of the resource
The Greater Hudson Heritage Network (GHHN) and the New York State Council on the Arts (NYSCA) are awarding $191,886 in conservation treatment grants to 32 organizations, located in 16 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 is generously providing 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 five stoneware vessels made by 19th century African-American potter Thomas Commeraw at the New-York Historical Society; the preservation of a Mohican/Munsee wood-splint basket at the Historic Huguenot Street in New Paltz; and a portrait of Lucille Armstrong by Samuel Countee at the Louis Armstrong Museum. A full list of recipients can be found below.
