Utah Arts & Museums grants due

Date: 
Fri, 03/30/2012 - 5:00pm

 

Utah Arts & Museums is accepting applications from museums for development and project grants. The purpose of these grants is to help museums develop projects to improve their professional skills in accepted museum practices; better preserve, exhibit and interpret their collections; and improve their service to their communities. Certified Utah Museums are eligible to apply. The due date for the online applications is 5 p.m. on March 30, 2012.

Previously funded projects have supported collection management, storage and cataloging, marketing and public relations, and temporary staff to carry out the project.  

Development grants are for museums open fewer than 1,000 hours per year, with a maximum award of $1,000. Project Support grants have a maximum award of $6,000 and require some level of matching funds. Specific grant guidelines and requirements are available at artsandmuseums.utah.gov under “Funding” and then “Grants.” Applications will be reviewed by the Utah Arts & Museums Office of Museum Services Advisory Board.

For more information, please contact Katie Woslager atkwoslager@utah.gov or  801.236.7550, or visit Utah Arts & Museums at artsandmuseums.utah.gov.
