Hi John,

The museum I directed was a municipal museum and was funded by the city.
For that reason the museum could not receive revenues for sale of art
from its galleries. However, the non-profit corporation, The Friends,
sold paintings through the museum store.Many of us, myself included,
felt that a museum is not a gallery and selling artwork seemed
commercial.
