Steven E. Young, Chairman of the Petersen Automotive Museum Foundation’s Board of Directors, announced that the Museum Foundation received a gift of approximately $100,000,000 from Margie Petersen and the Margie & Robert E. Petersen Foundation.
This donation is comprised of a substantial unrestricted financial gift, a matching challenge, the 300,000 square foot building that the Museum has occupied since it opened in 1994, and an important collection of cars assembled by the late Robert E. Petersen during his lifetime, all as part of the Museum’s gift.
