The operation of New Bedford Whaling National Historical Park relies heavily on collaborative efforts and partnerships with state and municipal agencies, nonprofit institutions and community organizations. The National Park Service and these groups have joined together as "Partners in the Park."

The Partners meet on a quarterly basis and collaborate on numerous fronts, including: interpretive/educational development and programming, special events, infrastructure work, marketing, and exhibit development.

Park partners are invited to complete a Collaborative Park Resources Program Application for projects which substantially involve the park and/or assist the park in fulfilling its legislative mandates through parnterships. CPR program quidelines and applications may be downloaded from this page.

The painting on this page of the Old Bank building (Now the park visitor center) was donated to the park in 1998 by artist Donna Morgan.
