The Claremont City Council has given the financially troubled Claremont Museum of Art a grant of $18,879 to keep its doors open through the end of the year.

The museum recently laid off its full-time staff after three expected donations failed to materialize, but the galleries have remained open.

A plan to raise funds and operate the institution at a reduced cost is in the works.
