Hi there - 

I am inquiring to ask how other art museums operate if managed by a
parent organization that holds the 501(c)(3) IRS non-profit exemption. 
What is the function of the parent organization? Do you have separate
boards for the museum and for the parent organization? And if yes, does
the museum board report to the parent board (i.e. Board of Trustees).
Does the parent organization also manage other arts organizations (i.e.
performing arts, public art)? Does the parent organization have staff
that engages in fundraising for the museum and the other organizations?
Are there conflicts when applying for grants?

Thank you!
