This fund provides grants on an annual basis to organizations looking to preserve museum/archival collections and historic buildings. Your project would qualify because the construction would be used to house a historic artifact.

<p><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">I thought I'd ask the collective brain if anyone is familiar with grants for building projects. The potential idea is to construct a building / add on to our building to house the A.D. Baker
Steam #1 Steam Engine. A.D. Baker invented a type of steam engine, his home is across the street from us, and we have a very active local railroad club. The hope is to also move the old Brailey Depot back to our block and the village would partner in that
capacity. The machine is currently housed at a local museum.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">Any thoughts? Has anyone had a similar project experience that they wouldn't mind sharing about?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">Best wishes,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
