Local Anticipation for the New Art Museum

As a member of the greater community outside the University, I can tell you that the excitement about the opening of the new museum is palpable! Having seen presentations about the progress of building and now of the galleries themselves, having a world class museum within walking distance for most of us sets a standard for our community that reinforces why so many of us live in town. We, like the University, have been waiting a long time for the opening. There is no question that this addition to the University will elevate community relationships to an even stronger position and give us one more reason to visit the campus.
