Dozens of museums and galleries in Scotland may close during the year due to a serious funding crisis.
More than 45 popular cultural institutions have been threatened with closure, according to documents submitted to the Scottish Parliament. Managers of some museums fear that they will become insolvent by the end of the year if the authorities do not provide additional funding for the cultural industry.
Of the 440 attractions funded by the government, only 14% will be able to survive for a month with their existing funds, while 28% will be able to survive for three months without additional funding..
