TRAVERSE CITY — A Grand Traverse area couple pledged a $2 million donation to renovate 
Northwestern Michigan College's Dennos Museum.
The donation from longtime college supporters Diana and Richard Milock will fund nearly
9,000-square feet of new floor space on the museum's east side.


The expansion is expected to include two new galleries dedicated to the museum's permanent 
and sculpture collections, additional classroom space, and an improved loading dock and 
storage area, college officials said in a written statement.
The Milocks plan to name the permanent gallery after Eugene Jenneman, the museum's 
founding executive director. The sculpture gallery's planned name is the 
Diana and Richard Milock Sculpture Gallery.
