This bill appropriates a total of $3,050,000 from the arts and cultural heritage fund for grants to children's museums in Minnesota over the fiscal years 2026 and 2027. The funds are designated for various museums, including The Works in Bloomington, WonderTrek Children's Museum in Brainerd-Baxter, and the Children's Museum of Southern Minnesota in Mankato, among others. Specific allocations include $175,000 each year for The Works and the Children's Museum of Southern Minnesota, and $100,000 each year for several other museums, ensuring support for interactive exhibits and outreach programs focused on arts and cultural heritage.

Additionally, the bill stipulates that to qualify for these grants, organizations must be exempt entities that align with the definition of children's museums as per the Internal Revenue Service activity code A52. This requirement aims to ensure that the funding is directed towards legitimate and recognized children's museums, thereby enhancing the educational and cultural experiences available to children in Minnesota.
