The Walter Anderson Museum on the Gulf Coast is in desperate need of a 
paper conservator, as 1000s of Anderson works have been waterlogged.  Please 
contact Bill Andrews, who is in contact with WAMA if you can help:

We do not know the status of the George Ohr Museum at this time.  Anyone?

Here in Laurel the Lauren Rogers Museum of Art suffered minimal damage (so 
far as we can tell) and our trees did not fall on us.  Laurel itself is full 
of downed trees, damaged houses and power lines, and hardly anyone has power 
or phone service.  LRMA had no power for about 4 days but we are back online 
(though not yet open to the public).

for information on how to assist Mississippi museums to recover.

thank you,
