This year took its toll on the Museum’s finances. We need you to get us back on track to serving the community. The Give Grandly Coalition and the Grant County Community Foundation are sponsoring this annual 24-hour community giving marathon on May 8 to support 58 local nonprofit organizations that make southwest New Mexico a great place to live, work and play.Please support the museum at this year’s Give Grandly.

Help the Museum Society reach our matching amount by donating here on May 8. All donations support the costs of reopening safely and fabulously: with repairs made and precautions taken, and with new exhibits and projects to show our returning public.You can also mail a check to Silver City Museum Society with the memo line "Give Grandly" and it will be counted toward our matching goal of $400 and our overall goal of $5,000.

Donate in person at Give Grandly booths at the Silver City Farmers’ Market on Pope Street or the Makers’ Market at MainStreet Plaza off Bullard until 2:00 pm—or donate online all day long at www.givegrandly.org.

All donations received by 2:00 pm on the day of the event will be entered to win raffle prizes donated by local organizations and businesses.And don't forget to tune in to the Give Grandly! Live Broadcast from 8:00 am to 2:00 pm on GMCR/KURU 89.1 FM or gmcr.org. It will feature interviews with participating organizations, which are also being broadcast at 1pm all this week.
