2008-2009 ACT Heritage Grants Program
The ACT Heritage Grants Program is an annual funding program administered by the ACT Government to assist the community in working to conserve and promote the heritage of the ACT.
In 2007–2008 the program funded numerous fantastic projects from all sectors of the community. Many are now producing a variety of materials including reports, books, events, conservation of sites, research into heritage listing and much more. Below are lists of successful projects from the last four rounds of the ACT Heritage Grants Program.

Applications are now open for the 2008-2009 ACT Heritage Grants Program. Priorities for this funding round include:
- Projects that prepare to celebrate Canberra’s centenary in 2013 or other centenary events.
- Community projects that promote heritage through education (of all ages), tourism, interpretation of heritage sites and events.
- Aboriginal heritage projects initiated by or involving the local Aboriginal community.
- Conservation Management Plans e.g. studies of particular places (including Aboriginal places) entered in the ACT Heritage Register.
- Conservation works on places or objects entered in the ACT Heritage Register.
- Projects that fill a thematic gap in the ACT Heritage Register e.g. 20th century heritage, rural and contact history, natural heritage and multicultural heritage.
Generally, funded projects are under $10,000 and have some financial or in-kind support from applicants as a demonstration of their commitment to the project. Where a gain may be made from a project, the applicant should provide matching funding.
The Minister for Heritage makes the final decision on the grants funded, based on advice from the ACT Heritage Council.
