Inmar Intelligence chief executive David Mounts has made a $2.25 million gift to the Kaleideum museum through his L. David Mounts Foundation, the museum announced.
Elizabeth Dampier, the executive director of the Kaleideum, said that $1.75 million of the Mounts gift is being given outright, but that the remaining $500,000 is a challenge grant: The museum gets the $500,000 from Mounts if Kaleideum can raise another $500,000 from the community.
The county is getting ready to build a permanent home for Kaleideum on the site of the former sheriffâs office building south of Merschel Park in downtown Winston-Salem. Kaleideum is responsible for raising money to pay for the interior displays and exhibits, and thatâs where the Mounts gift comes in.

March 20 was a day that Simon Burgess will remember: It was the first night since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic here that all the rooms in the Hotel Indigo downtown were booked.
âThe restaurant has been doing really well,â he added. âIt is still tough, but we can see the light at the end of the tunnel.â
Burgess is managing director of Mayfair Street Partners, which renovated the old Pepper Building as the Hotel Indigo in 2018 and had big hotel plans for nearby Merschel Park. The restaurant in the hotel is the Sir Winston.
Now, Burgess is feeling optimistic about development in downtown Winston-Salem, although heâll be building apartments instead of hotel rooms to overlook Merschel Park at the south end of Trade Street downtown.
