The Association of Children's Museums will receive $535,980 under a Project Grant award from the Institute of Museum and Library Services' National Leadership Grants program (CFDA 45.312) to conduct research and develop tools to support the virtual programming efforts of children's museums. Specifically, the Association will partner with research firms to collect data from museums and stakeholders on virtual programming needs, analyze museum assets, and identify best practices. Findings will inform a professional development tool outlining effective virtual program design. Additionally, the Association will release 18 reports sharing research findings and develop a framework for an online platform allowing museums to share and access virtual programs. The resulting data, tools, and resources aim to ensure children's museums can meet community needs through virtual offerings. The three-year project runs from September 2022 through August 2025.
