(hennemusic) Journalist and Nirvana fan Jamie Dunkle has launched a crowdfunding campaign to buy the Aberdeen, Washington childhood home of Kurt Cobain so she can turn it into a museum.

Dunkle is attempting to raise $700,000 via GoFundMe.com for the home, which was listed on the market last fall via Cobain's mother at $500,000; the additional funds are pegged to secure the singer's personal effects as artifacts for the project.

"We want to turn Kurt Cobain's childhood home into a museum," wrote Dunkle. "We're making sure this house is memorialized by us fans so it doesn't end up in the clutches of capitalist greed. This museum will reflect the anti-commercialism spirit of Nirvana." more on this story
