Hello,
     I am a grad student finishing up my thesis.  I have been thinking of
a project that I'd like to do in conjunction with a museum in my home town
community in California.  I'd like to open a mobile museum that could
travel to different parts of the city as part of an education and
"community bonding" promotioon.  I have the names of contacts for some
private sponsors (local businesses) but was wondering what are my chances
of receiving any grant money.  Would I have to ask the museum to write a
grant proposal, or could i get money myself ?  I know this is probably a
complicated question with many answers but before I really get in to the
idea, I want to know if it is plausable.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Rosemary
