Sponsorships
For
Individuals
There
are often special needs of the Society that can be addressed by
one-time gifts. Donations from individuals have recently restored
the 1805 Latrobe Survey, paid for the cleaning and restoration of
the 1759 Mary Brinckle painting, and commissioned new finials for a
clock in the collection.
