The Trenton Historical Society is currently accepting applications for its sixth annual Restore Trenton! Historic Property Rehabilitation Grant Program grant round.

Applications will be accepted through May 16 and grants will be awarded in June. Grants range from $500 to $3,000.

THS has established the David Collier Grant Fund to promote the preservation and restoration of eligible historic properties within the city of Trenton. Funding is limited to exterior projects including rehabilitation, restoration and major repairs (but not ongoing maintenance) of architectural details and features. Recipients are subject to compliance with certain preservation and rehabilitation standards, and projects are subject to approval and inspection by THS.

Eligible properties must be 50 years of age or older and in residential use. Preference is given to properties owned by Trenton residents and those within designated historic districts.

More information is online at trentonhistory.org.
