COVID-19 Resource List

As New Jersey continues to cope with the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact, the NJ Historical Commission (NJHC) is committed to taking a proactive and timely approach to supporting history organizations of all shapes and sizes. We have compiled a list of resources to assist museums and cultural organizations facing economic and operational challenges due to the health crisis. The list will be updated periodically as new resources become available. Last updated April 10, 2020.
