Thinking about applying for a grant from a federal agency like the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS), but not sure whether your museum or project is eligible? Wondering how the application and review process has changed in recent years?

The federal grant landscape looks a little different these days-and staying informed is more important than ever.

Join Mark Isaksen from the Institute of Museum and Library Services as he demystifies the federal grant process and shares what museums need to know to put their strongest applications forward. Mark will discuss recent changes to the application process, walk through this year's Notice of Funding Opportunities, and share insight into how to position your projects for the best possible outcome.

Then, our friends from Ohio Humanities Alliance will provide updates from the federal and state humanities sector, including the latest information on funding, grants, and what may be coming next.

Bring your questions! We've scheduled 90 minutes for this webinar so we have plenty of time to cover the topics that are on your mind and address your questions.

This webinar will NOT be recorded. If you want the latest information, hear directly from our presenters, and have your questions answered, be sure to join us live!
