County Kildare Federation of Local History Groups has been notified that Kildare PPN in association with Kildare County Council will hold two Grant Scheme Information evenings in February 2019.
Grants are available from a number of state bodies, as well as the local authority, for the benefit of the community and the promotion of the arts and heritage. Local history, heritage, and archaeological projects have the potential to qualify under the terms of many schemes and could be availed of by local heritage and history groups.
Groups are also encouraged to think creatively and look at the possibility of drawing down arts grants by combining heritage with the arts.
Below are a number of useful links followed by the details of the grant scheme information evenings in February.
