  Regrants and Partnerships

This category is exempt from the Council's three-request limit.

The Council may contract with nonprofit organizations to administer targeted funding programs and technical assistance services in areas not directly funded by the Council. These activities are carried out with funds granted through the Regrants category. Funding in the Regrants category is available only at the invitation of the Council.

Administrative costs for delivery of services can vary depending on the nature, depth and scope of the work, but rarely exceed 15% of project costs.

Information on the two regrant partnerships for the Museum field are available through the organizations administering them.

Grants for Museum Advancement: Get Ready, Get Set, Go! These grants provide support for organizations to strengthen and develop their institutions, work in their communities and offer staff professional development opportunities. www.museumwise.org

Conservation Treatment Grant Program. These grants support procedures to stabilize and preserve objects in collections of New York State cultural organizations. www.greaterhudson.org
