[QUOTE="DemonKing, post: 6051531, member: 18398"] I am currently the manager of collection management at the National Film & Sound Archive of Australia: [url]http://nfsa.gov.au/[/url]. Our collection includes around 2 million items consiting of audio-visual, documentation, digital files and artefact-type material (eg Movie props, costumes, projection equipment etc). I have also worked in Europe and at a number of other institutions in Australia but not in the US I'm afraid. I do know that museums operate a bit differently in the states to elsewhere - for example there is a much more established tradition of raising revenue from individual donors there than here in Australia where most institutions tend to rely on government sources for most of their funding. After some thought, have you considered altering the project so that the $150,000 goal is to fund a Business Plan only? That way you could probably hire some knowledgeable consultants to look into the feasibility of the museum plan and you'ld also have something solid to take to funding bodies/government/donors etc. You would also get a better idea as to where such a proposed museum would likely succeed and if there is sufficient audience out there to make it a viable concern.
