"Overall we are most interested in opportunities which enable us to provide critical support at key points in the development of a project or career. For organizations, our priorities are to: Assist with the production and presentation of significant programs about architecture and the designed environment in order to promote dialogue, raise awareness, and develop new and wider audiences. Support them in their effort to take risks in programming and create opportunities for experimentation. Recognize the vital role they play in providing individuals with a public forum in which to present their work. Help them to realize projects that would otherwise not be possible without our support."

2021 Lyceum Fellowship - Reimagining the Visitor Experience - The Ames Estate
Register/Submit Deadline: Friday, May 14, 2021
"When founded in 1891 by landscape architect Charles Eliot, The Trustees of Reservations (The Trustees) name was much better understood. The term 'reservation' was used by Eliot to describe his own notion of 'park-making.' Unlike Frederick Law Olmsted, whose approach to designing parks was to start from scratch, Eliot favored selecting natural or cultural landscapes that had inherent beauty and interest and then improve, preserve, and open them to the public. The Trustees of Reservations is the first private, nonprofit conservation organization of its kind in the country."
