Bank of America has awarded 24 cultural institutions with grants from its 2024 Bank of America Art Conservation Project. First started in 2010, this project supports the preservation of sculptures, paintings, architecture and archeological artifacts, according to a press release.

This year's recipients include the painting "Waterlilies" by Claude Monet at the Portland Art Museum, "Statuette of Susan B. Anthony" by Bessie Potter Vonnoh at the National Susan B. Anthony Museum & House, two Japanese wooden statues of the guardian kings Zochoten and Tamonten at the Nara National Museum in Nara City, Japan and more.

"This year, we are proud to share a slate of projects that feature some of the most celebrated artists of all time," Brian Siegel, global arts, culture and heritage executive at Bank of America, said in the release. "The Art Conservation Project reflects our longstanding commitment to cultural history, so that these works may be appreciated and experienced by generations to come."
