With construction underway, the Courage Museum is on track to open to the public in 2027. Designed in partnership with the award-winning experience design firm Local Projects, and in collaboration with accomplished subject matter experts in science, history, youth development, investigative journalism, and education, the Courage Museum will be an immersive, interactive experience that invites young people and their communities to understand the roots of violence, build empathy, and activate their own courage to create change.

With the opening approaching, FUTURES is seeking the Courage Museum’s first Head of Advancement. Reporting to the Senior Vice President of Public Engagement and Founding Director, the Advancement leader will be a key member of the Museum’s leadership team, charged with developing and implementing the Museum’s expanded fundraising strategy, including an upcoming endowment campaign; broadening its base of support; and building the development team and infrastructure that will sustain the Museum and Education Program in the long term.

The Head of Advancement will be joining a mission-focused and collaborative team that has already built a strong foundation of philanthropic support for the Museum, which includes a committed group of founding donors and lead investors, a growing portfolio of institutional relationships, and a dedicated Steering Committee that assists with identifying potential new donors.
