Museum Wish List Many of our Holland Museum financial supporters are desirous to help us with much needed resources, but they prefer their dollars to go for something specific, something that we really need, as opposed to placing monies into a “general fund” account. Since you have asked, we are now sharing our “behind the scenes” wish list from each of our areas of operation. These items are considered to be extremely important, yet resources still have not become available to make the acquisition. If you would really like to make a difference and are considering a new gift to the museum, you may want to consider selecting an item(s) from this list. We thank you in advance for your consideration.
