The Museum Grant Program (MGP) provides operational funding to help foster strong, vibrant, community-based Saskatchewan museums that are valued and supported by society. This funding enables museums to focus on excellence in their programs and operations and to contribute to the understanding of the world and our place in it – our past, our present, and our future.
In order to ensure that the funding for the Technology Microgrant program is spent in accordance with the program’s guidelines, and to assist us with evaluating the program’s success, recipients need to meet reporting requirements.
