Umm, not to be cynical, but I think the first, the longest, the
most difficult task, would be securing funding in order to
continue existing.

Sorry, but this sounds like a personal wet dream. Those are fine,

Even the San Diego museum had a hard go at it, and they are pros.

A pile of stuff does not a museum make. The Maslin collection is a
good example.
