About - Partnerships - The Western North Carolina Heritage project, the previous "Land of the Sky Project" and the cumulative Heritage of Western North Carolina project were 100% supported with federal LSTA funds made possible through a grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services, administered by the State Library of North Carolina, a division of the Department of Cultural Resources. These projects were part of the state-wide cultural initiative, North Carolina ECHO.
