As executive director of the Children’s Museum in Oak Lawn, Adam Woodworth is always fundraising — and always keeping his eyes peeled for new ways to do it. From the Daily Southtown.

The museum’s leadership considered holding the crypto in its original state, rather than immediately converting it to dollars, Woodworth said.
