About the company

The Association of African American Museums (AAAM) is a non-profit, minority-owned organization dedicated to promoting and sustaining African American museums and museum professionals. Registered in SAM.gov, the organization serves as a critical resource for museums focusing on African American history and culture. Through federal contract and grant awards, AAAM provides conference planning services, professional development programs, and capacity-building initiatives for museums and museum professionals. The organization primarily works with federal agencies like the Smithsonian Institution, National Endowment for the Humanities, and the Institute of Museum and Library Services to advance its mission of supporting African American cultural institutions.

AAAM's federal contract awards have been consistently focused on conference support services. The Smithsonian Institution has been the primary contracting agency, awarding purchase orders ranging from $27,250 to $35,000 annually to support AAAM's annual conferences from 2021 to 2025. These contracts are competitively awarded without specific set-aside designations and cover conference planning, execution, and related services. The contracts demonstrate AAAM's ability to deliver high-quality conference programming that brings together museum leaders to share best practices and advance the field of African American museums.

AAAM's federal grant awards are substantially more diverse and comprehensive, focusing on capacity building, professional development, and cultural preservation. The Institute of Museum and Library Services has been a significant grant provider, funding projects like executive leadership training programs, emerging professional scholarship initiatives, and museum sustainability efforts. The National Endowment for the Humanities has supported digital engagement and professional development programs. The National Park Service has funded collaborative research projects, such as exhibit planning for the Congressman John Lewis Leadership Center and scholars' roundtables exploring voting rights history. These grants, ranging from approximately $25,000 to $322,449, aim to strengthen African American museums by providing training, research support, and professional development opportunities for museum staff and emerging professionals.
