APPLICATIONS are open for the State Governments local history grants program which supports community groups to preserve and showcase records.<\/p>\n

The program has been running for 23 years to recognise the importance of remembering the state’s history.<\/p>\n

Projects previously supported include newspaper and photograph digitisation works, memorial websites, anniversary projects, digital histories, oral histories, archiving projects, community signage, exhibitions and walking tours.<\/p>\n

Historical societies, museums, schools and other community groups are encouraged to apply with up to $15,000 available per grant.<\/p>\n

“Community groups across the state work tirelessly to preserve Victoria’s rich and fascinating history \u2013 it’s a pleasure to be able to support their work with these grants,” said Minister for government services, Gabrielle Williams.<\/p>\n

“We encourage all local historians and community groups to go online and apply for a grant \u2013 I can’t wait to see some of the history projects that we’ll be able to support.”<\/p>\n

Last year more than 40 organisations received a grant including Deafblind Victoria which was awarded $13,465 for an interview project, and the Taungurung Land and Waters Council received $13,545 to catalogue Aboriginal heritage artefacts.<\/p>\n

Applications are open until Monday 9 December at prov.vic.gov.au<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
