We are similar to a museum. My function is to present old masterpieces in modern frames.
Rudolf Bing

We have a group of friends of the museum who try to raise, if they can, periodically something to help us. Of course, the main thing about a building like this is its upkeep. It needs central heating and it needs central air conditioning.
Katherine Dunham
