About the company
North Country Children's Museum, doing business as Nccm, is a tax-exempt nonprofit organization based in Potsdam, New York, that operates as a federal grant recipient focused on creating hands-on STEM, arts, and humanities exhibits and educational programming for children in rural northern New York. The museum has not competed for federal contracts or held prime contract positions; all federal engagement is through project grants from cultural and community-development agencies.
Nccm's federal grant footprint spans four agencies across cultural and rural-development missions. The Institute of Museum and Library Services has funded two grants, most recently a $400+ thousand award announced September 1, 2026, for the Adirondack Bobsled STEM Exhibit — a permanent hands-on installation introducing children aged twelve and under to engineering and physics through miniature bobsled design, testing, and experimentation on timed tracks. The exhibit explores motion, friction, weight distribution, and iterative design as part of the museum's STEAM Power exhibit and includes partnership with Clarkson University's Institute for STEM Education for student internships and connected engineering activities. The National Endowment for the Humanities and the National Endowment for the Arts have each supported exhibit development: NEH funded Phase II of the museum's second-floor expansion project (interior painting, flooring, lighting, doors, cabinets, and exterior finishing) awarded May 1, 2023, and NEA supported a music and sound lab exhibit awarded January 1, 2023. The Department of Agriculture Rural Housing Service awarded a $167,100 Community Facilities grant on August 19, 2022, for facility improvements supporting the museum's educational mission in the rural community.
Activity is sporadic — one award per year in 2020, 2021, and 2022; two in 2023; one in September 2026 — with combined obligated dollars across all six grants totaling $452 thousand. One award reaches completion within the next twenty-four months, creating a recompete opportunity for the museum to secure continued funding for ongoing or new exhibit initiatives.
