Whatever happened to the Minnesota Museum of American Art?

We’ve long pined for the locally-charged exhibits of the Minnesota Museum of American Art, which was forced to shutter its Kellogg Boulevard location last year. With one of the largest collections of Minnesota art in the state, the MMAA was a flagship museum filled with local creative history. Gone, but not forgotten, the museum staffers are still working tirelessly to get the institution back on its proverbial feet, and will be filling in the public on their upcoming plans through a series of lunchtime meetings at the Landmark Center.
