Great Lakes Region 4 Interpretive Project Grant
Members and their organizations can apply for Interpretive Project Grants in the amount up to $1000.00 for an interpretive project idea. Since 1997, over $29,000 has been awarded for the completion of interpretive projects within Region 4. Projects have ranged from interpretive signage for Millcreek Metroparks (OH) to traveling interpretive trunks for Indiana Dunes Lakeshore (IN).
We want to make your interpretive dream project a reality! The NAI Region 4 Interpretive Project Grants Program funds innovative small projects within the region. If you’ve got a great idea but are a little short on cash to make it a success, please apply!
Applications due annually on August 1 and are awarded to successful applicants by December of the application year. Please see application for full list of eligibility, reporting, and application requirements.
2022 IPG Proposal Forms coming soon!
