Maritime heritage grants closing soon

Applications are still open for this year’s Maritime Museums of Australia Project Support Scheme. This program offers funding to maritime museums and heritage organisations to preserve and display significant objects and collections. It also provides funding for staff and volunteers to attend a week-long museological training course at the Australian National Maritime Museum.

Do you have a project in mind, or are you looking for a professional development opportunity in maritime heritage? Visit the ANMM’s website to find out more, or email the MMAPSS Coordinator: mmapss@sea.museum.

Applications close Tuesday 25th March, 3:00pm (AEDT).

The Maritime Museums of Australia Project Support Scheme is funded by the Australian Government through the Australian National Maritime Museum and the Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, Communications and the Arts.
