DOWNTOWN. THE MUSEUM IS CURRENTLY CLOSED FOR EXPANSION AND WILL REOPEN MAY 5, 2007. A 48-foot Hammering Man sculpture marks the entrance to this vast museum, which features displays of Native American, African, and Asian art. To showcase particular events, each gallery within the spacious building is given an identity corresponding to its specific exhibit. Touring shows are also highlighted in the Special Exhibitions Gallery. Along with the wealth of art available for perusing, visitors also have the opportunity to enjoy regularly-scheduled lectures, classes, and live performances. There are two museum shops - one on the main floor, and one on the second floor that carries merchandise specifically related to the Special Exhibit. The museum has no parking of its own, but there are several public parking garages in the vicinity.
