July 28, 2009 - The Barker Historical Museum is pleased to announce the receipt of a GET SET Grant of $2,600 to retain the help of a museum specialist. The Barker will secure the services of Sally Treanor, Senior Director, Administration and Operations at the Buffalo and Erie County Historical Society to assist in developing a long range plan for the Barker. The GET SET grant, from the New York State Council of the Arts, a state agency, is administered by the Upstate History Alliance.
A Long Range Plan is a vital document that will enable the Barker to move forward in receiving future grant money from NYSCA as well as establish goals to move the museum forward.
The GET SET grants are one of a series of grants offered to help museums strengthen and develop their institutions and work with their communities. These grants are designed to make it easier for organizations to access professional help and improve their institutions.
