Sharp Grant Spotlight: Increasing Capacity in Columbus

The Columbus Museum embraces the charge that educational opportunities should be available to people of all ages.

They frequently host events such as school field trips and guided tours to connect the community to local history. To meet these needs, the museum expanded its community outreach coordinator position from part-time to full-time with the help of a Georgia Humanities SHARP (Sustaining the Humanities through the American Rescue Plan) grant. SHARP funding also supported the work of the museum’s academic programs manager.
