The Executive Office of Economic Development (EOED) through the Massachusetts Office of Travel and Tourism (MOTT) is committed to supporting programming around the Semiquincentennial of the American Revolution in Massachusetts in 2025 and 2026. The FY25 Massachusetts 250 Grant Program is a competitive grant program that will award funds to support programming and interpretation that tell the stories of the American Revolution in Massachusetts and will increase tourism and travel to and within Massachusetts.
Eligible projects will have a direct connection to the American Revolution in Massachusetts, connect to historic themes of revolution and independence, and/or celebrate the significant firsts in Massachusetts history that make the state special. Grant funds can be used for programming and marketing.
