Staff and city workers repacked wet and damaged items outside of 70 Mulberry street and packed them onto pallets and into trucks to be transported for recovery efforts, on Jan. 31, 2020.MOCA has already received donations from the Museum of Food and Drink and Deutsche Bank, but the museum plans on applying for an emergency grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities and reaching out to foundations for additional financial support.
