- Develop the Museum’s annual budget and fundraising plan in collaboration with other board directors and the Museum’s Director/Curator.
- Monitor payment and remittance processes to ensure the Museum’s ongoing solvency, make recommendations for asset management, and keep the Board of Directors apprised of the organization’s general fiscal health.
