The FY24 grant round for the African American Heritage Preservation Program (AAHP) is closed. Awardees will be notified by the end of 2024. The application for the next grant round for FY25 will be available later this month.

The AAHPP provides grants to assist in the preservation of buildings, sites, or communities of historical and cultural importance to the African American experience in Maryland.

The AAHPP is administered as a partnership between the Maryland Historical Trust and the Maryland Commission on African American History and Culture (MCAAHC). The program typically receives an annual appropriation of $5,000,000 for grants per year. Applications for the AAHPP are typically available in early April and due July 1, with decisions made by December every year.
