The Museum of the City of New York has been awarded a $150,000 grant by the Robert David Lion Gardiner Foundation.  The funds will be used to embark on a project to digitize the Harry T. Peters papers – consisting of manuscripts, correspondence, ephemera, publications, prints, and photographs, and to upgrade the Museum’s nearly 10-year-old digital lab equipment in order to most effectively and efficiently continue the ongoing effort to digitally photograph its approximately 750,000-object collection and share it publicly via the online Collections Portal.
