NYS Historic Markers FAQ

If my application is not approved due to insufficient documentation, may we resubmit our application during a future grant round if our documentation is complete? 

Yes. However, we often grant 30-day extensions to applicants in order to allow time to gather any additional primary sources we may request in support of your application.

Does the Foundation limit the number of markers it funds each grant round?

Our historic marker grants are non-competitive, which means we do not limit the total number of marker grants awarded during each grant round. Applicants cannot apply for more than five (5) markers per grant round. If you have an idea for a project involving more than five markers, please contact us to discuss further.
