facilities to house our expanding collection

place the cost of this project at approximately $30-35 million. This
includes a $5 million endowment which will be used to support the
operating costs of the building. Honorary co-chairs of the capital
campaign to raise the funds required to complete this project are
Robert H. Ahmanson and Norman Corwin.
