Virtual Q&A Sessions
MHT is also hosting two Q&A sessions in February for prospective applicants of the Historic Preservation Capital Grant Program. Before joining a Q&A Session it is recommended to have participated in a General Overview webinar or an in-person workshop. Previously recorded webinars relevant to the Historic Preservation Capital Grant Program are available on the MHT YouTube Channel. The prior webinars include information about easements, match requirements, specifics for religious sites, and recommendations on how to best answer application questions. Come to a Q&A Session ready to talk about your specific project and be prepared to ask detailed questions about your project, general questions about the program, or just listen in.
Webinar and workshop attendance is free, but registration is required. For information about the grant program, a full list of dates, and details on how to register visit the Historic Preservation Capital Grant Program webpage.
