(Elk Horn) Elk Horn’s Museum of Danish America will close to visitors for an estimated four weeks beginning Monday, January 10th.
Executive Director Tova Brandt says the closure will last through mid-February in order to complete building-wide updates to the interior finishes. The carpeting, which covers most of the building’s 28,000 square feet, is original; having been installed in 1994. Brandt said they received a legacy gift from a forward-thinking donor which will allow them to refresh the flooring, change some gallery walls, and reconfigure a few office spaces.
Museum staff will be available for emails and phone calls as usual, and the museum’s Design Store will be fulfilling orders received.
