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. Specifically, it allocates $1,525,000 for each year, with designated amounts for various museums across the state. The funding will support interactive exhibits and outreach programs focused on arts and cultural heritage. Notable allocations include $175,000 each for The Works in Bloomington and the Children's Museum of Southern Minnesota in Mankato, as well as $150,000 for the SPARK Children's Museum in Rochester, among others.

Additionally, the bill establishes eligibility criteria for organizations seeking grants, specifying that they must be exempt entities that align with the definition of children's museums as per the Internal Revenue Service activity code A52. This ensures that the funds are directed towards legitimate children's museums that contribute to the educational and cultural enrichment of the community.
