I would say that research is research.  All nonexternally funded activities
of the museum are academic support.  If you receive an NEA/NEH grant to
exhibit, that would be a sponsored activity and could be classified
variously as public service, instruction, etc.  The institutional support of
the day to day museum activities and permanent exhibits would be academic
support.

My humble opinion.
