The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA) received a $620,975 Project Grant award from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) under the Museums for America (MFA) program (CFDA 45.301). The grant supports SFMOMA's efforts to integrate inclusive design to improve visitor access to the museum's interpretive materials, including the collection holdings, special exhibition presentations, and public engagement programs. Key project activities include expanding visual descriptions for artworks, producing braille gallery texts, creating tactile museum maps and artwork models, and increasing the number of public programs offering American Sign Language interpretation. Additionally, SFMOMA will make transcribed and captioned audio and video content available on the museum's website. The project will run from September 1, 2024 through August 31, 2026 and aims to enhance accessibility and inclusivity for people with disabilities at the museum.
