Museum Assessment Program (MAP) Grant Applications Now Available (December 1
Deadline)

MAP grant applications are now available to museums of all types and sizes
for the annual December 1 postmark deadline.

Museums choose one of four types of assessments offered by the American
Association of Museums (AAM): Collections Management, Governance,
Institutional, and Public Dimension. IMLS grant funds pay for most
assessment costs. Download the application forms at www.aam-us.org/map
<http://www.aam-us.org/map> .

Grants are awarded on a first-come, first-served basis to eligible
institutions. If you have eligibility questions, contact Jeannette Thomas,
Program Specialist, at (202) 606-8548 or [log in to unmask]

Demand is expected to be high this year due to the recent revision of the
Public Dimension Assessment, the continuing success of the new Governance
Assessment, and a change in policy allowing museums to repeat an assessment
after seven years. Apply now at www.aam-us.org/map
<http://www.aam-us.org/map> .
