Need to make time to work on an America 250 program grant? We’ve got you covered. First, join TLGV for Walktober #108, America 250 Part I, for a special talk at the Prudence Crandall Museum with Museum Curator Joanie DiMartino at 4 pm. Then, for Part II, we’ll gather at 5:30 pm at the Finnish American Heritage Society Museum for a special hands-on grant-writing workshop to help YOUR organization prepare for America250 commemorations in 2026! Participants will be able to brainstorm and begin drafting individual proposals with museum experts that meet the goals of TLGV’s America 250 Framework and grant offerings, plus CT Humanities grant programs. Participants will be treated to a tour of the newly-renovated and updated Finnish American Heritage Society’s Museum and Archives, followed by a light dinner (soup and sandwiches) before getting to work on grant proposals for YOUR organization. Additional updates and funding opportunities from nonprofits, state and federal agencies will also be shared. Space is limited to 30 participants and RSVP is required by emailing Lois@tlgv.org.
