It is through a grant from Institution for Savings that our nascent website has been made possible.

Salisbury Historical Society is grateful for the generous grant awarded by Mass Cultural Council as part of its "Festivals & Projects 2025" program. It will assure that we can sponsor our "Scenes of Salisbury Traveling Quilt Show" in 2025.
Operational support has also been provided through a grant from Newburyport Bank.

The Salisbury Historical Society was awarded a Strategic Assessment grant made possible through the Massachusetts State Historic Records Advisory Board (MA SHRAB) and the National Historical Publications and Records Commission (NHPRC) grant program. The Society is participating in the MA SHRAB Roving Archivist Program which connects historical records stewards with a trained professional archivist. On March 19, 2024, archivist Thomas Doyle visited the Salisbury Historical Society's house at 16 Elm Street. Mr. Doyle met with several members of the Society and discussed the archives of the Society, stressing the importance of collection development policies, disaster planning, and preservation. Following the discussion, a tour of the house was conducted with emphasis on the archives. A report soon followed with a list of recommendations. We have been drafting a Collections Management Policy, and making physical changes to better align our practices with museum industry standards.
