Sharing some more good news this Westside Wednesda Sharing some more good news this Westside Wednesday. We’ve been invited to submit a full application to the National Trust's African American Cultural Heritage Action Fund! ✨🎶 We learned that AP-AMP’s Turf Club project is one of only 55 out of 627 submissions invited! 🤩 We’re proud to have come this far but it is a very competitive process so fingers crossed, please. 🤞🏼 As said by @savingplaces, “a response on this scale speaks to the broad interest in the African American Cultural Heritage Action Fund and to the significant need for investment in preserving African American historic places.” 🎶✨ 📸 credit: @breathlessconni 1. @johnsonvel and friends at Tuesdays at the Turf (July 2021) 2. view into Turf Club from Atkins (July 2021) 3. @johnsonvel and friends / Turf Club mural by Larry Walker in collaboration with @springwoodavenuerising #westsidewednesday #apamp #turfclub #newyearnewturf #springwoodavehistory #blackhistory #asburyparkhistory #historicplaces #springwoodavemusic #savingplaces #asburypark
📣 We are beyond excited to announce that AP-AMP 📣 We are beyond excited to announce that AP-AMP has been awarded a grant from the National Trust for Historic Preservation Telling the Full History Fund! ✨ AP-AMP is one of 80 organizations from across the United States that received grants to interpret and preserve historic places of importance to underrepresented communities. Telling the Full History grants support the core activities of humanities-based organizations as the organizations recover from the pandemic and use historic places as catalysts for a more just and equitable society. Telling the Full History Preservation Fund is a grant program from the National Trust for Historic Preservation and made possible through the @NEHgov American Rescue Plan Humanities Grantmaking for Organizations. Katherine Malone-France, National Trust Chief Preservation Officer said, “These 80 projects are driven by many dedicated volunteers, staff, and experts, all seeking to expand how we compose the American narrative. We are grateful for the work that they do on the ground and in their communities to reveal, remember, celebrate and illuminate these stories through these extraordinary places.” ✨🎶 Forum.SavingPlaces.org/tellingthefullhistoryfund #apamp #springwoodavehistory #tellingthefullhistory #turfclub #blackhistory #springwoodavemusic #newyearnewturf #humanities #asburyparkhistory #asburypark @savingplaces
