Purchase and installation of energy-saving windows for the 1852 and 1937 buildings on the Bennington Museum campus in Bennington, Vermont.

Bennington Museum is seeking an $46,172.75 grant from the NEH that will support the implementation of a window improvement and insulation project slated to take place in the summer of 2022. The Museum has 37 aging windows on-site, all of which are single-paned and contribute significantly to energy loss throughout the Museum as shown by an infrared survey. Through the creation and installation of custom exterior storm windows the Museum will strive to maintain the historic facade of the building and increase our energy efficiency to benefit the environment, our budget, and our collections.
