“Raising the $8 million necessary to build its new museum has proven difficult for the Mexican Museum, and this new grant brings it near that goal. Prior to this grant, the museum had raised just under $5 million.

The California Cultural and Historical Endowment was formed to distribute $122 million of $276 million Proposition 40 funds. It is charged with funding public agencies and nonprofits that preserve and protect California’s culture and history.”
