Higgins Armory Museum to close this year
Sir Martyn:
Would definitely be up for a trip/other group action. I wonder if they have discussed giving part of the collection to other museums who might be able to accommodate (i.e., Smithsonian or NY).

I've suggested they give some to me, but as of now, that request has not been fulfilled. :(
Some of it is getting sold, and while a large chunk of it is getting moved to another museum, whether it goes into the archives or actually gets displayed is one of my main concerns. I'm hoping to get some "behind closed doors" peeks at some things, but no promises.
Lord Dane:
A fraction got sold privately at auction. Most is going to Worcester Art Museum for a new wing display there. 7 of 9 staff as well. So let's do a road trip. :) All in favor???
Sir Martyn:
Aye!
Sir James A:
Still in favor, just need to coordinate and fund :)
