This year, 18 projects are funded, including the restoration of Titian's Bacchus and Ariadne at the National Gallery in London. The conservation will involve removing the painting from its current support and addressing paint loss.

Other projects include the maintenance of bronze palms at the Arc de Triomphe in Paris and the stabilization of Gaki Zōshi in Japan.
