The HSSA Grants Scheme awards grants from time to time for projects related to South Australia’s history, making possible projects that might not otherwise even get off the ground. The Historical Society of South Australia actively strives to support projects that promote the study, recording, writing and exhibition of South Australia’s stories.
The Grants Scheme will be available in 2026.
In years it is available, the HSSA Grants Scheme closes on March 31. Successful applicants are notified in May. A sample application form is available here.
