    EdCom's Trends Committee is taking a deeper look at emerging phenomena identified in the 2020 edition of TrendsWatch from the Center for the Future of Museums, which focuses on various income streams that support and sustain museums. In this session, we'll discuss government grant funding for museum education programs and considerations for government funding during the pandemic. Hear from a grant reviewer and successful grant recipients about their experiences and advice, and then share your questions, ideas, and perspectives with colleagues across the nations.

    Presenters:
    Helen Wechsler, Supervisory Grants Management Specialist, Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS)
    Margaret Adasko, Curator of Education, Katonah Museum of Art
    Helena Vidal, Consultant and Program Manager for Arte Juntos, Katonah Museum of Art
    Mia Nagawiecki, Vice President for Education, New-York Historical Society
