A special Off-the-Wall Weekend Celebration,
Dec 7-9, 2007, offers programs and performances for visitors
of all ages and interests. The museum needed a three-day party
to acknowledge all the voters, curators, civic leaders, donors,
and volunteers who helped launch the renovation project. Phase
I will transform the Art and History Galleries by late 2009;
Phase II includes a new Natural Sciences Gallery and museum store,
and improved visitor amenities, by 2011 |
