In 2003, I was honored to win the Mid Career Fellowship from the James Marston Fitch Charitable Foundation, and it has had a profound impact on my career, allowing me the time to conduct the research which led to the publication of my book New Solutions for House Museums last year. The Trustees of the Foundation have asked the Fellows to assist them in publicizing the Fellowship and I wanted to bring it to your attention. Information about how to apply is below.
Mid-Career Grant Program 2008
The James Marston Fitch Charitable Foundation will award a research grant up to $25,000 to midcareer professionals who have an advanced or professional degree and at least 10 years experience in historic preservation or related fields, including architecture, landscape architecture, architectural conservation, urban design, environmental planning, archaeology, architectural history, and the decorative arts. Additional smaller grants, up to $10,000, are made at the discretion of the Trustees.
The grants are intended to support projects of innovative original research or creative design that advance the practice of historic preservation in the U.S. These grants may be partially supported through the generosity of the Kress Foundation.
Please see our web site at www.fitchfoundation.org for details or contact Erin Tobin, Executive Director, at info@fitchfoundation.org.
The application deadline is Friday, September 19, 2008 (postmarked).
