New York's Board of Regents Might Allow Museums to Sell Straight From Their Collections

More lousy economic news (didn’t we just warn you in the post below?). This weekend the New York state government’s board which controls museum regulations, announced that it might consider allowing museums to sell off pieces of its collections if all other outlets for funding had dried up (see: corporate contributions and potentially dry state coffers). This change in policy is all due to the Fort of Ticonderoga museum, which is currently teetering on bankruptcy.
