Development and dissemination of online public programming delivering interpretation of Penn Museum collections and exhibitions.

Funds from the NEH CARES: Cultural Organizations grant program will support the Penn Museum''s public engagement through programming and exhibitions. The grant activities will provide new digital platforms for our scholars to share their humanities research with the public. By supporting these at-risk programs and projects, this grant will enable the Penn Museum to engage audiences and encourage visitation once the Museum is reopened, contributing to the long-term viability of the Museum.
