Funding Initiatives for Museum Improvements
The Worcester Art Museum is in the midst of its most ambitious fundraising campaign to date, “A Bold Step Forward,” aiming to raise 5 million by 2028. The campaign focuses on several key areas, including modernizing and enhancing the campus, providing unrestricted support, ensuring financial sustainability, and enriching exhibitions, collections care, and public programming. These efforts will help the museum to adapt to changing times, better serve its community, and secure its long-term financial future.
The museum plans to achieve its goals through a variety of means, such as developing a financially sustainable vision for its campus and enhancing the visitor experience. Additionally, it seeks to expand its endowment by million to cover rising operational costs in the future. Investments in staff and programs will help the museum to become more innovative and diverse in its offerings.
Establishing unrestricted ongoing support is also critical to the museum’s success, as it allows flexibility in resource allocation. Through these efforts, the Worcester Art Museum aims to strengthen its position and better connect with its audience.
