The museum was the venue, and those interested got a sneak peek at one of the many dilemmas the RBCM is facing.
That was the idea of shutting down the museum for eight years, razing the site and building a new one for $789 million. The snap decision to close Old Town on the third floor with just two months notice — after zero public consultation — was made in late 2021.
