Small Project Grants (NICAS) is sponsored by NICAS (Netherlands Institute for Conservation, Art and Science). This funding scheme supports small projects in which museums and other heritage collections in the Netherlands collaborate with academic partners to conduct research. The goal is to gain a better understanding of heritage objects and use that knowledge to enrich their stories and safeguard their future.
While primarily research-focused, projects that aim to tell new stories about cultural heritage could align.
