The Alaska Association for Historic Preservation has announced the
Ten Most Endangered Historic Properties Grants for 2018. AAHP has compiled this annual list for the last 29 years (since 1991). It is intended to bring public awareness to Alaska’s threatened historic properties. Heightened awareness often leads to increased support for the conservation of endangered historic properties, which are assets important to tourism, economic development, and the cultural heritage of Alaska. The program calls attention to threatened properties that define our great state, the people that live here and the identity that we share. The nominations for this program are submitted by individuals and organizations throughout Alaska. The list is the first step to participate in the AAHP Ten Most Endangered Grant Program, which funds hands-on preservation work on endangered properties and serves as seed money to leverage funding from other sources. Properties listed on the 2019 List will be eligible to apply to AAHP for these matching grants, which are made possible through generous donations to the Grant Program from private individuals and organizations which support these preservation efforts. If you would like additional information on the history of this program and past properties on the list, please contact us at akpreservation@gmail.com. AAHP Ten Most Endangered Historic Properties Matching Grants are made possible by generous donations from individuals and organizations throughout the state. Please consider donating to the AAHP Ten Most Grant Program.
