Explanation
(This amendment provides $15,000 the second year from the general fund to the Montgomery Museum and Lewis Miller Art Center, which is located in Christiansburg. The museum has received a vast collection of photos and negatives of the Montgomery County and New River Valley areas. Many of these images have never been published. The museum is in need of additional space to accommodate its growing collection. Funding is needed to digitize the images for preservation purposes and to make them available for access to the general public.)
