Clarkdale Historical Society and Museum (CHSM) has been awarded an $8,000.00 grant from Arizona Humanities.

Working under a tight deadline and unable to meet face-to face, the CHSM Board of Directors applied for the grant to offset the cancellation of fundraising activities.

The money awarded will be used for materials, on-line outreach activities and building utilities expenses. The grant is funded by the Congressional CARES Act Emergency Relief Fund through the National Endowment for the Humanities.

Arizona Humanities is a statewide 501(c)3 nonprofit organization and the Arizona affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities. Since 1973, Arizona Humanities has supported public programs that promote the understanding of the human experience with cultural, educational, and nonprofit organizations across Arizona. 

Lights, Camera, Action!

A very exiting project that can be funded by the CARES Grant is the production of videos. 

Though it is hoped that the first videos will be available soon, new ventures are often tricky, so don’t wait!  Visit the website today and explore the many resources available to you right now.  https://clarkdalemuseum.org

CHSM will begin producing short videos to include Museum tours, artifact exploration, and historic building tours, which will be posted to the website soon.
