The Montpelier Foundation was awarded a $500,124 Project Grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) under the Museums for America (CFDA 45.301) program. The grant will support the re-envisioning of the visitor experience at the James Madison's Montpelier site, including the creation of a new interpretive plan that addresses the role of slavery in shaping American history and society. The project will involve a core committee working with consultants to co-create content and implement the plan for a new visitor experience, as well as develop and implement formative and summative evaluations. The goal is to provide a more complete American history narrative where all visitors can see their story represented.
