ABSTRACT

The article reports on the transformation of the McAuliffe-Shepard Discovery Center's status as a state agency into a museum that will rely on admissions, fees, and grants in Concord, New Hampshire. It states that the state agency, which was one of the many institutions affected by the government's budget cuts in the area, was coping with the loss of roughly 763,000 annual state funding. The Discovery Center will also change its programs to increase return visits from visitors.
