Thank You To Our Supporters

As we near the concluding celebration for our Old Glory, New Vision capital campaign (May 18th at 3:30PM –see you there!), we are honored to thank the many supporters that helped us make this campaign such an overwhelming success.

This campaign marked a milestone in our 50+ year history undertaking our first-ever capital campaign. Our initial financial goal was to raise $6 million to make significant improvements to the residence and create a stunning gateway public space on the south lawn designed to overcome long-time challenges of visibility and perceived lack of access. Additionally, plans were made to make high use of the I-65 construction to be able to create a beautiful Neighborway reconnecting the Old Northside to the rest of downtown.

At the successful conclusion of the campaign, $6.86 million was raised from 535 unique donors. Exceeding the goal allowed us to make even more improvements to the residence including new wallpaper, new carpeting, repairs to the slate roof, installation of copper gutters, improving accessibility on grounds, and increasing elevator access to the museum.

We are grateful for this vibrant community of support, and are excited to invite you on grounds to see the realization of our ambitious goals. See for yourself on your next visit or go online to OldGloryNewVision.org.
