The Museum of Science and History is poised to hit a target for private fundraising for its new facility on the Northbank, the head of the Downtown Investment Authority told the Mayor’s Budget Review Committee.
DIA CEO Lori Boyer told committee members April 22 that MOSH received pledges for the $40 million in funding it needs to comply with its redevelopment agreement with the city for the 2.5 acres of publicly owned property where it plans to build its new home.
The agreement requires donors’ funding commitments to be documented and binding. Boyer said MOSH is working on getting the full package of pledges under contract.
