Heritage Trust Fund Workshops

The Heritage Trust Fund (HTF) is a program that provides matching funds for the preservation of properties listed on the National Register of Historic Places or the Register of Historic Kansas Places. This is a competitive grant program, in which applicants compete for the funds that are available each year.

Grant application workshops are held each year, generally between May and August. Each workshop includes information on applying for a grant and the administration of a grant should your project be funded.
