The complex of buildings in Central park is the property of the City, and the City provides for the Museum’s heat, light, and power. The City also pays for approximately one- third the costs of maintenance and security for the facility and its collections. The collections themselves are held in trust by the Trustees. The Trustees, in turn, are responsible for meeting all expenses connected with conservation, education, special exhibitions, acquisitions, scholarly publications, and related activities, including security costs not covered by the City. To the State: The state of new York again provided valuable support through the new York state Council on the arts. To the Federal Government: Continued funding from the institute of Museum and library services and the national endowment for the arts. aid from these sources, combined with the generosity of many of our visitors and
