Description

The 21st Century Museum Professionals Program funds projects that support professional development for the current museum workforce or recruit and train future museum professionals. Projects may develop or evaluate training programs, expand alternative career pathways, and strengthen professional networks. Applicants must align their projects with one program goal and its associated objective. The program expects to award $2 million across approximately eight awards, with individual requests ranging from $100,000 to $500,000. Applicants must provide non-federal cost share equal to or greater than the requested federal award. The application requires a narrative, organizational profile, schedule of completion, budget and budget justification, key staff list and resumes, performance measurement plan, and Grants.gov forms; additional documents may be conditionally required. Projects must begin August 1, 2027, and run for one to three years.
