MARCIANO ART FOUNDATION IN LOS ANGELES ANNOUNCES OPENING DATE

Set to open in 2017, Deborah Vankin reports in the LA Times that the Maurice and Paul Marciano Art Foundation has announced a precise date: May 25. The museum on Wilshire Boulevard near the Hancock Park area of Los Angeles is in a landmarked Millard Sheets–designed building, which formerly served as a Scottish Rite Masonic Temple and was renovated by Kulapat Yantrasast of wHY Architecture.

Like the Broad, the Marciano Foundation will be free and visitors will have to make reservations on the museum’s website for timed admission slots. The museum will be open to the public Thursdays through Sundays, and Wednesdays will be reserved for school groups.
