It is though. It’s funded by a massive foundation, not government.
It's both.
Finance[edit]
In 1958, a $35-million bequest by industrialist Leonard C. Hanna Jr. vaulted the Cleveland Museum of Art into the ranks of the country's richest art museums.[37] Today, the museum receives operating support from the Ohio Arts Council through state tax dollars. It is also funded by Cuyahoga County residents through Cuyahoga Arts and Culture. The museum derives around two thirds of its $36 million budget from interest on its endowment, which was reported as $750 million in 2014.[38][39] The museum has an acquisition fund of $277 million, from which it draws about $13 million a year for purchase of works for its collections.[40]
I stand corrected.

It’s still an unbelievable experience though. You can stand an inch away from a Rembrandt, with no glass.
But you have to go to Cleavland for it. No thanks.

Rock hall of fame is pretty awesome, too.
SJWs are a natural consequence of corporatism.

Cleavland is not a real place.
