Free Info Session for Preservation Grants: Tarrytown

February 24, 2016

ALBANY, NY (02/04/2016)(readMedia)-- Not-for-profit groups and municipalities are invited to attend a free information session on Preserve New York and Technical Assistance Grants (TAG), the signature grant programs of the Preservation League of New York State and the New York State Council on the Arts (NYSCA).

The meeting will be held on Wednesday, February 24 from 10 a.m. to 12 noon at the Carriage Barn at Lyndhurst, 635 S. Broadway, Tarrytown. Driving directions are available on the registration page.

This information session is hosted by Lyndhurst and the Greater Hudson Heritage Network, and presented by the Preservation League of NYS. There is no cost for the session, but reservations are required and may be made online at tinyurl.com/jr5yn64. If you have questions or would like additional information, contact Kerry Sclafani at Greater Hudson Heritage Network at info@greaterhudson.org or (914) 592-6726.

A total of $265,128 available in 2016. This includes $255,128 in funding from NYSCA and $10,000 from the Erie Canalway National Heritage Corridor for the TAG program. The League will disburse this amount over two grant rounds, Preserve New York and TAG in the spring, and an additional TAG funding round in the fall.

"Through its grant programs, the League has strategically invested in the rehabilitation of historic places, leveraged significant additional cash and in-kind resources, and protected properties at the local, state and national level through landmark designations," said Jay DiLorenzo, President of the Preservation League. "These grants help the League's growing constituency conserve, protect and use their cultural resources, and are an important catalyst in realizing community
preservation goals."

The application deadline for Spring TAG and 2016 Preserve New York is Monday, April 11. Guidelines for grants are posted on the League's website at www.preservenys.org. Prospective applicants must discuss proposed projects with Preservation League staff before receiving an application. If you are unable to attend the meeting, you may contact Erin Tobin at 518-462-5658 x 12 for more information or to request an application.

Since 1993, Preserve New York has provided support for historic structure reports, cultural landscape reports and cultural resource surveys. In 2016, the program will also offer grants for building condition reports. The Preservation League especially encourages projects that advance the preservation of neighborhoods and downtowns
that qualify for the New York State Rehabilitation Tax Credit programs; continue the use of historic buildings such as museums, opera houses, theaters, and libraries for cultural, interpretive, and artistic purposes; and identify and preserve architecture and landscapes designed after World War II. Preserve New York grants are likely to range between $3,000 and $15,000.

The League launched the Technical Assistance Grant (TAG) program in 2012 to support projects that preserve New York State's cultural and historic resources. Not-for-profit arts/cultural groups and municipalities managing arts/cultural facilities are encouraged to apply. The applicant group may apply for short-term, standalone projects that advance the preservation of historic sites, museums, opera houses
and theaters, arts facilities and other culturally important institutions that are located in historic buildings and structures that are open to the public. These professional studies include: building conditions surveys, engineering/structural analyses, feasibility/reuse studies and specialized building conservation studies. Preparation of
architectural plans and specifications are not eligible. TAG funding will not exceed $3,000 and the total cost of the applicant's project may not exceed $3,500. Each applicant must provide $500 toward the total project cost.

The Preservation League invests in people and projects that champion the essential role of preservation in community revitalization, sustainable economic growth, and the protection of our historic buildings and landscapes. It leads advocacy, economic development and education programs across New York State.

The Preserve New York Grant and Technical Assistance Grant programs are made possible through funding from the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Governor Andrew Cuomo and the New York State Legislature.
