Who’s behind the floating workshop?

The Fund for the Water Works(link is external) is raising private and public funds for the effort. The group has about 14 partners in the project, including the Academy of Natural Sciences at Drexel University, the Water Center at Penn, the Delaware River Waterfront Corp., and the Independence Seaport Museum. So far, it has raised about half the money needed to complete the project.
