I see no one replied to the list so I guess I will just say there aren't grants for acquisition unless perhaps you find a private foundation somewhere.

We are looking to expand our museum's collections and once the building is complete, the will be proper exhibit space. I was wondering if anyone know of a grant that funds acquisition of new artifacts for up and coming exhibits? I have thought about looking at the Amer. Assoc of Museums, National Humanities Council or Museum and Library Services. Does any one have any other suggestions? Anything would be appreciated. Thank you Katie Tate _____ Never miss a thing.
