Program Overview
Museums for America is the Institute’s largest
grant program for museums, supporting projects and ongoing
activities that build museums’ capacity to serve
their communities.
Museums for America grants strengthen
a museum’s ability to serve the public more effectively
by supporting high-priority activities that advance
the institution’s mission and strategic goals.
Museums for America grants are designed to be flexible:
funds can be used for a wide variety of projects, including:
ongoing museum work, research and other behind-the-scenes
activities, planning, new programs, purchase of equipment
or services, and activities that will support the efforts
of museums to upgrade and integrate new technologies.
Grants are awarded in the following categories:
- Engaging Communities (Education, Exhibitions, and
Interpretation)
- Building Institutional Capacity (Management, Policy,
and Training)
- Collections Stewardship (Management of Collections)
