We aquired a number of donations by chopping the work up into smaller chunks & giving a plug to the benefactor ... whole rows of seating with the name of the contributors on a small brass plaque on the exterior arm rests ... along with a wall of contributors names ... if you can get the word out, you may find some wealthier patrons of the arts who just love having their name on the wall.


The Glasgow Film Theatre is a small cinema that champions, British and foreign (but mostly non Hollywood mainstream) arthouse and independent movies. It has its share of funding problems but it did the seat sponsoring thing and many big names sponsored. Robert De Niro has hosw own seat there. It made a big difference.

You should check out www.grants.gov
Usually there is something that would fit the "really good non-profit loot" description, and in your case, it would probably fall under arts or promotion of the humanities.
As long as the group overseeing the restoration has a 501(c)3 status, they should be eligible for most, if not all, of the grants listed.
You have to check the site every day, as a number of the grants appear and disappear quite quickly.
