M&G Update: An Un-Museum Tour 

Saturday, October  12 at 11AM. 1 PM, 2PM, 3PM, 4PM

Meet at M&G’s front doors (on campus)

Since closing its doors in 2017, M&G has still pursued its mission of using its Old Master collection to touch the whole person—mind, heart, and soul. The museum staff have been hard at work preserving and sharing the collection, pursuing a new building off campus, and serving thousands annually through ongoing programming for children and adults. For a glimpse of the work behind dismantling a collection to move, take a tour through the process with Executive Director, Erin Jones.

Free Event–must register in advance to attend.

The following expectations apply:

  • Advance registration is required. Register HERE.
  • Tour groups are limited to 25 people.
  • Attendees must be 12 years of age or older.
  • There are no public restrooms available within the building.
