What: repairs to the Barnes Museum exterior, where a rotted wooden gutter has damaged the dining-room bay window and the garden-facing side used for wedding rentals.
Where it stands: on 2026-09-14 the curator reported about $50,000 on hand, a private donor pledge of up to $25,000 and a structural assessment under way; a 2023 quote was upward of $60,000. The $13,000 annual building maintenance budget cannot cover it.
