Introducing the NC Science Museums Grant Program

The competitive North Carolina Science Museums Grant program is one of the many ways that the State of North Carolina invests in sustaining and advancing one of the most diverse and widespread networks of science museums in the country. These museums are critical resources for schools and communities in providing learning experiences in and out of the classroom that enhance science literacy.

Any North Carolina science center or children’s museum that meets eligibility requirements may apply for an award.  Awards range from $50,000 to $75,000, based on each applicant’s county tier designation. Applications will be accepted on a two-year cycle.

This cycle’s Eligibility forms will be due no later than midnight on July 31, 2016.

Once eligibility is determined, eligible parties will be allowed to submit an Application Form.
