MTA Board of Trustees member Margaret Benjamin and her husband Bill Benjamin are lifelong advocates for the essential role of museums in communities. This year, they are making an impact through their Light the Way: The Campaign for Earned Achievement gift to the Weatherspoon Art Museum.
The Benjamins’ gift will endow a faculty fellowship grant and support a discretionary fund that allows the Anne and Ben Cone Memorial Endowed Director of the Weatherspoon Art Museum to tackle projects that make the museum more accessible to its patrons.
“The Margaret and Bill Benjamin Endowed Faculty Fellowship is the first to enable UNC Greensboro faculty to plan a course or exhibition based on the museum’s renowned collection of modern and contemporary art,” said Anne and Ben Cone Memorial Endowed Director Juliette Bianco.
The Margaret and Bill Benjamin Auditorium at the Weatherspoon Art Museum was formally dedicated in recognition of the couple’s support of UNCG on September 16, during the All That Glitters: Weatherspoon Open House.
