The past two weeks have been exciting ones for the Renovation Project.  The remodeling portion of the renovation is complete to the point where Academy Studios have begun installing the new exhibition and interactive components.

Last week, workers finished up carpeting and painting.  This past week, the Museum received a truckload of components that Academy Studios has been busy assembling in the new space.

The new space continues to unfold as the pieces are laid into place.  Additionally, Academy Studios has created custom display units for the new Special Exhibition Space.  The Museum Store is being put back together in preparation for the re-opening on August 20!
