There is no grant round for October 2010.  The next grant deadline is April 1, 2011

The State Historical Fund was created by the 1990 constitutional amendment allowing limited gaming in the towns of Cripple Creek, Central City, and Black Hawk.  The amendment directs that a portion of the gaming tax revenues be used for historic preservation throughout the state.  Funds are distributed through a competitive process and all projects must demonstrate strong public benefit and community support.  Grants vary in size, from a few hundred dollars to amounts in excess of $200,000.  The Fund assists in a wide variety of preservation projects including restoration and rehabilitation of historic buildings, architectural assessments, archaeological excavations, designation and interpretation of historic places, preservation planning studies, and education and training programs.
