Dear Melanie:

You might contact the cities of New York and Chicago.  I know these
major US cities provide some funding for their cultural institutions -
New York has an office of Cultural Affairs and the City of Chicago Park
System provides some funding for major institutions located near the
park.

Kind Regards

Roger Wulff
