Huntington Theatre gets $10 million gift

The Boston Globe: "At a time when arts organizations nationwide have been struggling with shaky funding, the Huntington Theatre Company has received the largest gift in its 29-year history: $10 million in endowment funding from the Calderwood Charitable Foundation. The contribution, announced today, comes in the same month that, in Philadelphia, one of the nation's most renowned orchestras disclosed that it would file for bankruptcy. In Seattle, a cash-strapped, Tony Award-winning regional theater canceled the rest of its season and laid off its staff.
