Art museum gets grant
A $400,000 infrastructure and capacity building grant was awarded to the Toledo Museum of Art, one of 258 projects selected nationwide by the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) to generate private support for local humanities projects.
The project to improve plumbing facilities at the Toledo Museum of Art will be funded through the NEH grant as well as $400,000 in local matching funds.
"This federal matching grant will serve as a catalyst for further investment and underscores the rich legacy for the arts that our region enjoys,” said Rep. Marcy Kaptur. “The Toledo Museum of Art is an unparalleled regional jewel and its leadership is to be commended for competing for federal resources to ensure its accessibility for future generations to come."
"The Toledo Museum of Art is grateful to the National Endowment for the Humanities for their support of our vital infrastructure project to upgrade the Museum's plumbing," said Adam M. Levine, the Toledo Museum of Art's Edward Drummond and Florence Scott Libbey Director.
