The City of Kingston Heritage Fund (CKHF) provides support for museums, heritage projects, cultural groups and historical societies to improve how Kingston’s stories are told locally and to the world.
The CKHF was first launched in 2013, as recommended within the Kingston Cultural Plan (2010), with an initial allocation of $100 000 to support project grants only. In 2014, Kingston City Council approved an expanded Heritage Fund program that included both operating and project grants.
Operating grants are annual grants to support operations for non-profit, cultural heritage organizations. There are two options: Small (max $5,000) and Large (max $75,000).
