Hi Megan,

Thanks so much for adding this source of funding. We’ll try to get specific 
data from them and add it to our slowly growing list.

Best,

Robin

Re: [MCN-L] Funding for Digital Media

Hi Robin,

In Canada, there is also the Virtual Museum of Canada investment program, 
managed by the Canadian Museum of History. We support the creation of virtual 
exhibits, virtual tours, games, apps, educational resources, and other online 
products, in both official languages.

Best,

Megan

Thanks to everyone for the information on funders who support digital media in 
some form. These grants cover a broad range of “digital,” from media 
production(video, interactive, web, mobile, AR,VR), to TV production, to 
digital staff and digitizing collections. 

These are the funding sources I have so far, in no particular order:

1. NEH
2. IMLS
3. The Knight Foundation
4. Bloomberg Philanthropies
5. Samuel Kress Foundation
6. MacArthur Foundation
7. NEA
8. Mellon Foundation

in Canada:
9. Documentary Heritage Communities Program 10. Canada Council for the Arts

Google Arts was also suggested. I’m not sure how to evaluate that since they 
create digital projects for museums, rather than contributing to museum 
initiated projects. What do you think? 

Should hardware manufacturers and software developers, who tend to cherry pick 
projects, also be included? 

I know funding patterns change over time but I’m interested in putting together 
a list of programs that are ongoing or have been sustained over a period of 
years. It would be great to add to this list, and then include how much money 
each source has granted, over the past 5 years or so.  It’s time consuming 
research! I need a smart intern!

Looking forward to more conversation on this.

Robin

Thanks to everyone for the information on funders who support digital media in 
some form. These grants cover a broad range of “digital,” from media 
production(video, interactive, web, mobile, AR,VR), to TV production, to 
digital staff and digitizing collections.

3. The Knight Foundation
4. Bloomberg Philanthropies
5. Samuel Kress Foundation
6. MacArthur Foundation
7. NEA
8. Mellon Foundation

in Canada:
9. Documentary Heritage Communities Program
10. Canada Council for the Arts

Google Arts was also suggested. I’m not sure how to evaluate that since they 
create digital projects for museums, rather than contributing to museum 
initiated projects. What do you think? 

Should hardware manufacturers and software developers, who tend to cherry pick 
projects, also be included? 

I know funding patterns change over time but I’m interested in putting together 
a list of programs that are ongoing or have been sustained over a period of 
years. It would be great to add to this list, and then include how much money 
each source has granted, over the past 5 years or so.  It’s time consuming 
research! I need a smart intern!

Looking forward to more conversation on this.

Robin
