Kathy, the Mukwonago Museum is funded through a combination of sources.
The village owns the building and pay all utilities, maintain the lawn
and do any repairs that we need. In addition the village allocates
dollars every year in the budget. Not a large amount but it helps with
purchases we make. Other funding is through our membership and
donations. We do not charge any entrance fee and find that for the most
part we do receive more from donations than charging an entrance fee.
We have a small gift shop which generates a very small income.

Subject: Funding
We're interested in knowing how other historical societies are funded,
whether private, county or city or mixture of them. Can you help us
out?
Thanks.
