BAR HARBOR – The Abbe Museum’s capital campaign has received a year-end challenge grant of $200,000.

The grant requires the museum to raise an equal amount from other sources.

By meeting the challenge from the anonymous foundation, the museum will add $400,000 to its campaign gifts and come within $250,000 of its $5.7 million campaign goal.

The capital campaign will make it possible for the Abbe to build a downtown facility, enhance its educational programming and increase its endowment for operating funds.

Contact the museum at 288-3519 or at abbe@midmaine.com.
