The Institutional Grant provides financial support for projects connected to areas within standards of practice identified in the Standard Practices Handbook for Museums: Museums and Society, Governance and Operations, Collections, Programming as well as Disaster Recovery. A project is defined as an activity that has a definite start and end date, specific goals, and a plan for implementation and evaluation.

Projects undertaken must align with the AMA values of Courageous Leadership, Service Excellence, Reciprocity, Agents of Social Change, Compelling Communication, Intentional Inclusion, and Collective Celebration. Linkages to the museum's long-term plans must also be identified.
