CHATHAM — The Shaker Museum was awarded a $550,000 grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities to improve its facilities. The Infrastructure and Capacity Building Challenge Grant money will be used for a climate-controlled collections storage facility within the new museum building, which is planned for downtown Chatham. “Shaker Museum is tremendously grateful to the National Endowment for the Humanities for this grant, which will help us as we reanimate the museum and begin this new and exciting chapter,” said Shaker Museum Executive Director Lacy Schutz in a statement. “As stewards of this incredible collection, our first priority must be to preserve and protect this material so we can then in turn share it with generations to come. This grant will help us do just that. We are honored to be included in the NEH’s 2020 grant cycle, which includes so many valuable cultural endeavors across the country.”
