This week, the Nelson-Atkins celebrates the momentous occassion of our 75th anniversary.
Even though it was cold and blustery on opening day Dec. 11, 1933, nearly 8,000 people waited in line to tour the Nelson-Atkins.
This weekend, Dec. 13 and 14, may be cold and blustery again but we've got lots of fun activities to keep you warm inside the Museum including FREE CUPCAKES!
If you haven't seen our fantastic exhibition Art in the Age of Steam: Europe, America and the Railway, 1830-1960, take advantage of free admission this Saturday and Sunday. The exhibition closes on Jan. 18.
Stay tuned for an announcement about a special online feature to celebrate our anniversary.
