<p><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"">Federally funded cultural institutions are preparing for the $85 billion in automatic spending cuts known as the sequester that are scheduled to take effect Friday. Most institutions have anticipated
the cuts and will meet budget constraints through delaying maintenance and repairs to their facilities. Others, including the
<a href="http://www.loc.gov/index.html">Library of Congress</a> and <a href="http://www.nga.gov/home.htm">
the National Gallery of Art</a>, are preparing for furlough days in the coming months, and the staff reductions would force the gallery to close for up to seven additional days.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
