Today marks the one-year anniversary of the opening of the Bloch Building. In many ways, it seems like it just happened yesterday but in others it feels like its been 10 years. The Nelson-Atkins has become a well-known name in the Museum world.
The Bloch Building has helped to change everyone's outlook on Kansas City. When artist Kerry James Marshall visited a few weeks ago, he mentioned that he was very impressed with the Bloch Building and with Kansas City's multitude of cultural offerings.
One of the reasons we started this blog was to give readers an insider's look into the construction, progress and completion of the Bloch Building. You can read those archives and more here.
