The Sangre de Cristo National Heritage Area (SdCNHA) is pleased to announce our 2022 grant application cycle is now open.

Grants awarded from SdCNHA are intended to encourage local cultural and historic heritage preservation activities, educational programs and support Heritage Tourism within the heritage area. Our past grantees have used grant funds to restore historic buildings; provide historical and cultural interpretation; restore or promote scenic, artistic and recreational resources; and to document culturally significant components of the way of life in the heritage area. Sangre de Cristo National Heritage Area is administered by a non-profit board of volunteers who represent Alamosa, Conejos and Costilla Counties. Heritage area grants are available to local schools, municipalities, and non-profits annually. Please visit our website for more information about our mission, vision, and a list of past grants we’ve awarded.
