Jessica and listers, we hope to do the same, to endow 2 part-time
collections mgt. positions. In particular, I am interested in your stories
of raising an endowment for this purpose (or raising an endowment for
another museum purpose). What worked, what didn't, and what you wished
you'd know at the start. Thanks.
