The St. Augustine Lighthouse & Maritime Museum is proud to announce that the museum has been selected as a 2025 Americana Corner Preserving America Grant recipient! The program was established to assist non-profit organizations like us in the telling of the incredible story of America from its founding era through its first century as a nation. Grant funding will enable us to make improvements to the Wrecked! exhibition, which tells the story of sixteen ships from the American Revolution that wrecked off the coast of St. Augustine in 1782. These ships transported British Loyalist refugees from Charleston, South Carolina, during the height of the American Revolution when the American army seized control of the city. americanacorner #preservingamerica #staugustinelighthouse #nonprofit #museum #grant #historicpreservation #onview #shipwreco #exhibition #exhibit #staugustine #florida #saintaugustine
