The Brooklyn Museum has announced the cancellation of its First Saturdays events for March and April amid significant financial difficulties, which include a projected $10 million deficit. This disappointing news follows a recent letter from Director Anne Pasternak, which outlined impending layoffs, pay cuts, and reduced exhibitions as measures to mitigate the financial strain. First Saturdays, a key event for public engagement and sponsorship, particularly supported by Bank of America, had not been officially announced for cancellation until staff were informed during an all-staff meeting on February 7.
