Historical Records Grant Forms

The updated grant forms are now available.

The program has a simple application form with frequent deadlines for grants of up to $1000, with an annual deadline of October 1 for grant amounts between $1000 and $2500. Note that these grants are not for artifacts. Historical Records are unique original records, usually unpublished, including manuscripts, photographs, architectural records, video recordings, sound recordings, and film.

Contact Janet Roberts (287-5791; janet.roberts@maine.gov) for more information.
