The New York State Council on the Arts (NYSCA) and the Preservation League are pleased to offer Technical Assistance Grants, with additional support from the Maurice D. Hinchey Hudson River Valley National Heritage Area / Hudson River Valley Greenway and the Robert David Lion Gardiner Foundation.
Technical Assistance Grants are available to eligible NYS nonprofits and municipalities. The TAG Program provides support for planning studies or analyses of New York State’s historic resources that serve an arts and/or cultural function. TAG funds consulting reports only, completed by architects, engineers and/or other design and preservation professionals. These grants do not fund capital construction costs, architectural plans and specifications, schematic designs, or construction documents.
