***Please disregard this reminder if you have already submitted an

The deadline for the *Reopening Fund for Heritage Organizations *under the

This funding will help heritage organizations that have felt the impact of
the COVID-19 pandemic as they reopen and safely welcome back visitors.
Not-for-profit organizations with a heritage collection, such as museums,
archives, galleries and historic sites, may be eligible to receive funding.
Indigenous organizations with a heritage collection are also encouraged to
apply. Organizations can receive between $1,000 and $100,000 in reopening
support.
