Schrimsher Collection Book Available Through the Trust
Randy Schrimsher served as the President of the Trust’s Board of Governors from 2011 through 2016. The Schrimshers graciously welcomed Trust members to view some of this exquisite collection in Charleston during the Emerging Scholars Program Fundraiser at the Trust’s Fall 2024 Symposium. Over the past four years they have meticulously restored a c. 1810 property to house a portion of their furniture collection along with complementary lighting, porcelain, sculpture, paintings, and prints. They also opened their Alabama home “virtually” in 2020 with a Bulletin post featuring their synthesis of early-19th-century furniture and studio glass.
The Trust’s Publishing Grants program allocates funding to two separate grant lines: Publishing Grants for First-Time Authors of Book-Length Publications and Publishing Grants for Collections, Exhibitions, and Conferences. Applications for the next round are due March 31, 2025.
