The National Trust for Historic Preservation is launching Partnership-in-Scholarship Grants to support collaborative projects between African American Historic Places and college/university scholars. This year, four grants of $15,000 each (no match required) will be awarded in fall 2009 to projects that help sustain current or attract new audiences at historic sites or enhance the interpretation of challenging topics at historic sites. The deadline for applications is September 30, 2009. See this blog post for a longer overview and a PDF that includes all the details.
