Hot FM The current Texas economic condition, caused in part by COVID 19, has curtailed a grant in the amount of $60,000 earmarked for preservation efforts at the Ace of Clubs House. This has been our third attempt to garner preservation funds through the Texas Preservation Trust Fund Grant process for the historic 1885 Ace of Clubs House stated Velvet Cool, Board President for the Texarkana Museums System. This process is very competitive and requires applicants to submit an initial application and then, if invited to the second phase, a detailed project proposal. This year we were finally recommended for the maximum funding of $30,000 from the Texas Historical Commission. As this is a grant requiring a match by the museum system, we would have been able to tap into $60,000 to do some much needed work to the Ace of Clubs House.
