The University of Alaska Museum of the North is in our 3rd year of  
dealing with expansion/renovation-pains. We were closed only 1-1/2  
months, and that was so that our main gallery could be re-carpeted,  
re-painted,  and have some new pipes/ducts installed in the ceiling.  
You can see the progress at:
www.uaf.edu/museum/ and click on Expansion.

We are a research-based institution that has biological collections  
as well as art, history, and anthropology.

Best,
Angela
