How you can help

Are you a museum professional?

In the wake of COVID-19, museums are striving to implement new systems, create online programs, and stay relevant. If your new way of working might inspire others, considering sharing your methods and ideas with wider museum networks.

Are you a museum supporter?

Fundraising is an urgent challenge and will remain so for the foreseeable future. If you are able to financially support your favorite museum, make a personal giving plan. Consider the possibility of not only emergency gifts, but also monthly contributions.

Do you love museums?

As museums offer more and more online programs, it’s a great time to help family and friends discover the best of what they have to offer. Each time you share a museum’s online content, you give it a boost. Spread the word!
