The New Orleans Museum of Art (NOMA) received a $518,102 Project Grant award from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) under the Museums for America (MFA) program. The grant will support NOMA's migration of its collections database from an outdated system to a new collections management system. This will enable improved efficiency, functionality, and workflow integration across collections care, exhibitions, and public programming at the museum. The project will also facilitate increased public access to NOMA's collection by making it available on the museum's website. Key activities funded through the award include hiring a full-time collections database manager and two paid interns to oversee the migration process. The project period runs from September 1, 2024 to August 31, 2026.
