The Minnesota Historical Society is pleased to announce the Heritage Partnership Program to build the capacity of eligible applicants to preserve and enhance access to Minnesota’s history and cultural resources by supporting the creation and development of sustainable, history-based partnerships throughout the state.
This is a competitive grant program that funds capacity building and program development of history-based partnerships throughout the state.
Funding Information

- Heritage Partnerships Program grants must be completed within 12 months from the date of the award. Extensions for this grant program are not allowed due to state funding expiration dates.
